 What are Identifiers?                                                                                                           Lessons 8   
 

So far you know one 'set' of identifiers- $1, $2, $2-, $1-3, etc. are all identifiers. In mIRC, text beginning with a $ dollar sign is called an identifier. When used, it actually symbolizes (or is 'replaced' by) something else. So, $1 'symbolizes' or 'becomes' the first parameter, $me (another identifier) 'becomes' your current nickname, etc. (we will discuss many more identifiers over the course of this tutorial.)

In other words, anywhere in a script you see a word beginning with $, it will be referring to some sort of special 'replacement' such as these parameters. These are referred to as identifiers.

NOTE: Keep in mind that identifiers (words beginning with $) usually cannot have anything next to them- You cannot do blah$1 and expect the $1 to work properly.
