Title: Kryptonic Away 1.1

Format: Win OS

Description: Kryptonic Away is an AwaySystem addon that will basically allow you to use the simple away system functions, such as: A pager, A message logger (And a channel logger) and away nick/regular nick options. The documentation was VERY short. It only explains how to load the addon, but no information on how to navigate the dialog. New users like to know this type of information, especially if they have never used mIRC before. Upon loading the addon, I immediately tried to go away. Upon doing that, I go this error: * /amsg: not connected to server (line 130, k4.mrc). This illustrates what happens when you are not on a server and try to go away. If you are not on any channels, you get this error: . If you do not enter any information and try to go away, you will get this error: awayerror Unknown command. If you are not away and you try to come back, the addon will do this in a channel: I Am Back. Reason:() Time Gone:() / . I tried turning on the loggers, but they didn't work for me. I went away and ha

Title: Lag Meter 1.1

Format: Win OS

Description: English addon script by french author that keeps track of your *own* lag and can also give you an analysis over a certain period through a graphic (x and y coordinates). There is a very brief readme file on how the script is to be installed. Once that is done, you can access the addon through the popup menu of the menubar section. For the time that I tested it, the script seemed to work pretty well ... then I couldn't get myself overly lagged, so I don't know how the addon performes on higher levels but things looked good from my point of view. The coding was alright, however the author could have used more script specific variable names for easy mass unsetting of variables for example. The use of local aliases would have also been preferable, in addition to the removal of slashes. Beyond that, well done.

Title: Lag checker 1

Format: Win OS

Description: This is a dialog based self-lag script. The script basically just pings your nick, puts the output into a dialog, and then gives it a grade varying from nice to worst. It also allows you to announce your lag to the active channel. The author provided a readme wiht installation instructions and contact information. He also provided an empty *.txt file that doesn't seem to have any purpose. The addon worked well. I did encounter one error, the output that it delevers to the channel uses the $network identifier and not all servers support this. This isn't really a bug, but the author might want to look at it for future versions. The code was alright, slashes weren't necessary, and a whole lot of lines could be saved by using the $str() identifier =].

Title: LaggeD Away 1

Format: Win OS

Description: Simple away system with logging and pager options, all set up with a dialog interface. While the script didn't include any documentation, it was relatively easy to use once you found the options in the popup menus. In addition, the script asks you to set your options when you first install the script, which is well done. The script also has a button that allows you to visit the author's website. The website is not very informative and can therefore, not count as documentation. The addon works well enough, but there are a few points to improve upon. First of all, the author uses timers to open the dialog windows. That might be appropriate but I find that they should probably should change the number of seconds to "0". At its current speed, the dialogs take a while to popup. For example, during the installation, I expected the script to be finished asking questions and accidently closed the next dialog window without meaning to. There are some bugs, such as the fact that each time someone sends

Title: Lbb-Beat time addon

Format: Win OS

Description: Lbb-Beat time addon is a simple 'code snippet' that gives you an identifier (namely: $beat). The documentation is inside of the mIRC Script file, in case you have not noticed yet. I have barely any idea what this addon is used for. The /titlestart alias will not even work, you will get this error: * /timer: invalid parameters (line 23, beat.mrc). This is due to the fact that the author used: timer tbar 1 bclock rather than: timertbar 1 1 bclock. You *have* to specify a repition AND interval for the addon. On a deeper note, the /timer command was not silenced either, so you will see the timer get enabled in your status screen. The addon uses variables where they are uneeded; this enlarges the size of the addon and makes for poor scripting as well. There were extended aliases where simple aliases could have been (ie: the author could have done: alias titlestart timertbar 1 1 bclock rather than using braces to encompass the function. Although, this is a personal choice). The author uses repition
