Call me bored but I took a few minutes the other night to make a macro that is more or less a "Quote database". With Add/Remove commands via !commands in /tells or /gu people can add or remove quotes and !quote for a random one or !quote # for a specific #.
However, I need to know how to remove an INI entry from the file completely. So far all I know is how to null it basically but the value still exists. Due to the way my macro works it counts all the values as a quote, empty or not.
The INI is in format
[Custom]
1=quote here
2=quote here
3=quote here
4=
4= would be the one I just removed via setting it null from /ini.
Anyway to do this via macro or no?

Ever find a solution?
Hey Epic,
Did ya ever figure out how to remove the entry? I've come across a situation where I'd like to do the same thing...
Thanks!

I ended up just having the macro re-random if it encountered a null field. And to delete something, I just set the field to null.
Not the prettiest thing. That function is in my quotes.inc include. Uses #Event's in my main macro to call it. There also remove and add quote functions. But you get the idea. Worked well enough for my implementation.

Code: Select all
Sub CustomQuote(string thename, int specific, int chattype)
:wait
/if (${QuoteChatDelay}) /goto :wait
/declare amtofquotes int local ${Ini[CustomQuotes.ini,Custom,-1,NO].Left[-1].Count[|]}
/declare number int local 0
:reroll
/varcalc number ${Math.Rand[${amtofquotes}]} + 1
/if (${specific}) /varset number ${specific}
/if (${String[${Ini[CustomQuotes.ini,Custom,${number}]}].Equal[NULL]}) {
/if (${specific}) {
/if (${chattype} == 1) /gu Invalid or Blank Quote! (#${number})
/if (${chattype} == 2) /tell ${thename} Invalid or Blank Quote! (#${number})
/return
} else {
/goto :reroll
}
}
/echo Quote Spew! ${chattype}
/if (${chattype} == 1) /gu #${number}: ${Ini[CustomQuotes.ini,Custom,${number}]}
/if (${chattype} == 2) /tell ${thename} #${number}: ${Ini[CustomQuotes.ini,Custom,${number}]}
/varset QuoteChatDelay 3s
/return
