This topic will direct your attention to some of the more useful mIRC options. These options/settings will work with (or without) the GTZ mIRC scripts.
LINE MARKER
open options (alt-o) and expand +display
hilite 'options' and click the 'line marker' button
check the 2 boxes for 'show' and 'reset' |
now when you return to any mIRC window (chat query status), you will see a marker line showing where you left off. If you dont see the line, it probably scrolled up and you can press CTRL L to jump to the marker.

Logging
To set up chat logging, try these settings...
press ALT-O... expand +IRC... select Logging ...
...select settings shown in image below... |
The Advanced mIRC script for GameTZ has a User Info menu link to Find... PM Logs... This link will work best if logging options are set up as shown, and the log folder is sorted by Filename in reversed order... so the most recent PM log is the first one found (with the files grouped by user or channel).
