you got THAT right ... hehe ... for those that don't understand ... the ZERO at the
end means how long to wait between line displays... and zero ain't NEARLY long
enough.

I like your mIRC script, especially the random picture .. cute touch...  I keep all
of mine in a file with bracketed topics .. changes the basic format to         /play
-t<picname> # filename.txt 2000  ... I keep flat ascii in one file, and mirc colored
pix in another.   Taking your lead I'll just pull a random name from the list of pics
at the beginning of the file and show it for the randomizer.  I have several
different lists to play depending on the channel or the age group being targeted.
(ie: #Philosophy wouldn't have much use for an ascii of a car .. but give them one of
a unicorn and watch them go.)
All of my bots use the same mIRC scripts and aliases to play these pix on demand, and
(dispite Microsoft's assertion to the contrary) they are always a favorite on line
