O.P. externalIP 1.01
erm, another plugin!

This gets your external IP address (because some of my friends are stupid and couldnt get it themselfs)

Usage:

(!XIP) - will replace with your external IP address

Version 1.01:
- (Really) Removed line break after IP (thanx Choli)

.exe File Attachment: externalIP_1.01_setup.exe (55.99 KB)
This file has been downloaded 422 time(s).

RE: externalIP 1.0
very nice...
how do you get the external ip? you connect to a server, don't you?

Edit: Do not put a new line at the end of the IP ;)

RE: externalIP 1.01
It's very easy do that. You've develop it under VB 6, haven't you? Then you have to use the Replace() function and change vbnewline by ""
code:
variable_string_with_the_ip = Replace(variable_string_with_the_ip, vbNewLine, "")

Yay! I guess this can come out really handy, because more ppl have such friends, like me... :dodgy:

And there isn't any other way to let it check it instead of letting it connect to a server (if that is how it checks it)? It seems a bit of a workaround, but if you can't do it a different way... :-/

it goes to a webpage that only displays your IP adress,

so it uses about 15 bytes of bandwidth and loads in about 50ms

I can't get your plug-in to work for me. It puts the (!XIP) command in the chat window but when I send it no IP shows up.
