I appreciate the assistance, but this is way too complicated.
I have a 5 line text script using the say command (five lines that use the
say command), so flooding isn't really an issue. I want it to go to the
CURRENT (active) window (regardless of whether that window is a channel or
a query window). I do not want prompts and I am not interested in echo, I
just want to send it to the current window automatically. The window
number command only works on channels, so there appears no way to do this
using Rexx at this time for query windows. IS there a way to do this now?
If not, can you put the capability into a future update of Amirc?
