At my workplace we use mIRC for realtime communication for those of us who need to be constantly in touch with others. Sometimes it happens that I have to leave my desk for an hour or two at a time, and sometimes I get a PM in mIRC that I need someone to get me for.

So, my question is, with the scripting capability of mIRC, is it possible to set up a script that, when running, if I receive a PM it will automatically send a PM to another user that I specify to let him know to give me a call or something? Would it be easy to implement?

(if it would be quick and easy and someone wants to write it for me, that'd be super and worth a top answer vote :P mainly just need to know if its possible and how difficult it would be though)

We use mIRC 6.16 if that matters. Its an older release.

Yes it's possible. Yes it's easy.

It's like one line of code. This might work, haven't tried it though since I haven't used mIRC in years, probably made a mistake somewhere..

on *:TEXT:*:?:/notice NICKNAME Got PM, Call me!

that posts a message in the irc window thats only visible to the specified user, which is an excellent start. Can it be changed to do a PM to the user instead of his chat window? Just to make it more noticable – Matt 14 secs ago edit [delete this comment]

just switch out '/notice' with '/msg'
