mIRC-script easy to learn? @______@
mIRC-script is one of the most counter-intitutive, inconsistent, syntax-anal, hard-to-debug, badly documented pseudo-languages that has ever been invented. Granted, if you don't know Perl already it's probably easier to get very simple things done in mircscript than it is to learn Perl AND how stuff works in irssi's script module, but at least there it's a real programming language that can do real things with real data, not a playground pseudo-language that doesn't even have proper support for lists or escaping, much less things like associative arrays (or more advanced data structures) and real file I/O.
