First question:

Try this:

code:

---

// code retrieves first word ONLY

var FirstWord;

function OnEvent_CatWndReceiveMessage(pChatWnd,sMessage,mOrigin,kMessageKind) {
if(mOrigin != Messenger.MyName) { // Optional!!
switch(sMessage.charAt(0)) { // I prefer charAt fo single characters than substring(0,1)
case "~":
FirstWord = sMessage.split(" ",1);
break;
}
}
}

Workin' on your 2nd..
