i have win xp, i just realised that the manifest is only needed if your on win xp.
if ($os == XP) {
var %f = $+(",$mircexe,.manifest")
if (!$isfile(%f)) {
write -c %f <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?>
write %f <assembly xmlns="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:asm.v1" manifestVersion="1.0">
write %f <assemblyIdentity version="1.0.0.0" processorArchitecture="X86" name="mIRC.mIRC.mIRC" type="win32"/>
write %f <description>Internet Relay Chat Software</description>
write %f </assembly>
var %t = Basic did not find a mirc.exe.manifest file on startup. $+ $str($crlf,2) $+ $&
This file has been created and is necessary for some of the features to work properly. $+ $str($crlf,2) $+ $&
Please do not delete the mirc.exe.manifest file in the future. $+ $str($crlf,2) $+ $&
mIRC will close now. $+ $str($crlf,2) $+ (Please restart it manually)
!.echo -q $input(%t,68,Basic)
.timer 1 0 exit
halt
}
}
so a correction on my last statement, any chance of the mdx series on win xp being able to have flat scrollbars without the need for the manifest file which reverts everything back to the 5.91 style which is what i don't want.
