Hello

I use my msn to write a lot of same stuff, for instance welcoming a new friend or something like that. Is it possible to make a button/rightclick/macro or similar (really not the best scripter, so I'm leaving the best solution choice to you guys) where the message is always the same, but the name is different, for instance "Hi <name> bla bla", where I would click the button in the conversation window or rightclick somewhere and I would get an input box of some kind where I would simply write down the name, after which the script would send the message template to whichever window is focused.

Is something like that possible? If you need more details please don't hesitate to contact me here or via pm.


Thank you for your time and have a great day!

Such functionality is already build into Plus! as a basic feature.
You do not need any scripting for that...

Go to the Quick Text options and create a quicktext, using the (!P) tag. You can assign either a macro command or a predefined hotkey. When the command or hotkey is entered a popup will appear where you can fill in the variable paramater....

Plus! > Preferences & Options > Features > Quick Texts

Example:



If you want anything more fancy you do need scripts though.

Whoa I didn't know it works like this. Thanks a lot buddy, I owe you a beer or something

Have a great day!

Start your message with /all to send it to all open conversation windows

THANK YOU! I love you guys <3

Have a great day!!!!

One more small thing, how do i use (!P) for 2 different inputs? For instance I wanna say Hello (!P) how would you like some (!P) today?

They are different words so I need 2 input boxes, should I just add something or..?

Thanks and have a great day!

Edit : when I use /all message it does send to all, but it writes /all just for first windows for instance : /all message
and for rest it just writes message, any way to avoid this? Thanks!

Edit 2 : I made /all work by making it work on hotkey rather then / command. I still need the 2 variable command tho

Not an expert on quick texts, but I think if you use a second (!P) it should ask you to set it the same as the first in another window (one after the other)

I've tried that but if I put (!P) twice, it asks for input only once and I then replaces both (!P) with the same thing, however, I need it to be different. Tried (!P1) as well

Hello

Yeah thanks for input on that, but it somehow works if you put hotkey instead of /spam command there

About the 2 variables here's the deal :

I usually write something like :

Hello bla bla on *name* bla bla *ammount*

Now here's the kicker. Instead of name, I can put a word one of about 250. Instead of ammount, most of the time its fixed, but sometimes not. So a dropdown menu for name would be okay, but i'd rather simply have the box where I type in what its suppose to say.

How hard would that be to make? I'm really not a scripter, so any help would be deeply appreciated! I'm also up for the dropdown menu for *name* if that is easier, but whoever helps me make this would have to explain how do I input 250 different names to choose from.

Thank you so much for your help, and have a great day!
