I cannot afford to buy the code at this time, or i'd be adding a goto. At least
with interpreted code, this should be easy. It's because of this one lack that i
keep using mirc to do so much, while mirc has no "for", the goto makes up
for that and the missing "while" and "repeat", and Eu lacks "repeat".
