to growl for windows
A little while back I actually wrote a MIRC DLL plugin to utilise in
conjunction with a MIRC Remote script (that I am still currently
using) that uses growl for windows to push notifications of my IRC
nickname being mentioned and PMs etc.

If anyone is interested I can see if I can package it to make it
available to users generally / even release my original code if
someone wants to develop it further / improve it...

Let me know if there is any interest, as I know IRC isn't as popular
as it once was... lol

Yes.

I would be very interested, once I figure out why I can't get a
reliable connection to any irc server. I actually run #rainmeter on
freenode, but I have to use freenode's webclient for the time being.

I'm interested in this as well.  I don't currently spend much time on IRC, but during the times I do I've definitely wanted this functionality.

Hi Everyone,

Sincere apologies for lack of response on this, for some odd reason I never received any notifications from this thread.

Due to the interest on this, I will be creating a repo on GitHub soon with the source for this DLL.

If anyone wishes to contribute to improve this or even package it up in a nicer way let me know and I willbe in touch

While the add-on is being updated, i worked on the following code to create a notification for messages and nick highlights. There are many options that you can use with growlnotifier.com/exe, this is the minimal set that i have used to create my notifications:


in remote.ini, place the following (adjust to your liking and growl path)

on *:text:$(* $+ $me $+ *):#:{ run -n $qt(c:\Program Files (x86)\Growl for Windows\growlnotify.com) /t:mirc /a:mirc /n:mirc " $nick :: $chan :: $1-" }
on *:text:*:?: { run -n $qt(c:\Program Files (x86)\Growl for Windows\growlnotify.com) /t:mirc /a:mirc /n:mirc " $nick :: $1-" }


You must register the app for the code above to work. I had tried many attempts at this as i am new to both mirc scripting and GFW. I believe the syntax that worked was the following:

"c:\Program Files (x86)\Growl for Windows\growlnotify.com" /t:mirc /a:mirc /n:mirc /r:mirc "hello world"


Day 1 with GFW/notifications: Android, System, Weather, Mirc, Spotify, Firefox. I am having problems with COM failures with outlook 2007. I will attempt that tomorrow.

Please let me know if you have any questions.

Hi Eric,

Since there is interest for the source of the mIRC DLL I am aiming to put the source of the DLL up in the next week or so. I just need to formulate a useful Readme to utilise the DLL.

Of course your growlnotify proxy will work, but you may find it isn't as efficient as a native dll implementation (as I attempted the growlnotify method, but found it unreliable at times, hence the dll was written).

Have you got Visual studio? As the project is a VS project and as such you will need a means to compile it / contribute, unless I can find some time to create a simple installer if that is of interest to people.

Anyway, will post the link to the GitHub repo in the next few weeks (hopefully sooner rather than later, just completed a re-format of my machine so need to finish set up first).

Best wishes,
SE

Hey everyone,

Apologies for my utterly horrid response time on this, I had to recover some of the assets from a corrupt hard drive, but luckily everything is now in place, and the code has been posted to github:


Feel free to ask any questions / throw any suggestions my way.

Best wishes,
SE
