mIRC.ini Unleashed Colors Setup

Overview

This section explains the way how mIRC uses colors and themes. The actual color assignment is composed of 2 sections in mIRC
  • [Colors]
  • [Palettes]
The first assignment starts with n0 the next with n1 and so on.

Example:
[Colors]
n0=mIRC Classic,0,6,4,5,2,3,3,3,3,3,3,1,5,7,6,1,3,2,3,5,1,0,1,0,1,15,6,0
n1=MISHScript,1,13,4,0,13,10,3,3,8,10,3,15,4,14,15,15,3,11,3,8,14,1,0,1,15,14,6,15

[Palettes]
n0=16777215,0,8323072,37632,255,127,10223772,32764,65535,64512,9671424,16776960,16515072,16711935,8355711,13816530
n1=16777215,0,8323072,37632,255,127,10223772,32764,65535,64512,9671424,16776960,16515072,16711935,8355711,13816530

Each time you select a scheme from the Color Dialog it's name is stored in 

[text]
theme=mIRC Classic
Upon start mIRC gets the Color Scheme name from the 'theme' item in the [text] section (mIRC Classic) and searches items in the [Colors] section, once its found, it uses the item name (here n0) and loads the data of the n0-item from the [Palettes] section and sets the appropriate colors.
