Sets the value of %variable to the specified value.
/set [-lsnzuN] <%variable> [value]
| Switch | Meaning |
| uN | Unsets %var after N seconds, as long as %var isn't set again. If N is 0, it is unset when script finishes. |
| k | Keeps the current -uN setting for a variable. |
| n | Treats value as plain text. |
| z | Decreases %var by 1 per second until it reaches zero, and then unsets it. |
| e | Unsets the variable when mIRC exits. |
| l | Sets %var as a local variable, same as using /var (Deprecated, use /var) |

Example
set %fuu bar set %moo $+ %fuu 42
This will set %fuu to bar and then set %moobar to 42, as the variable %fuu will first be evaluated to bar.
echo -a This is fuu: %fuu
Will echo This is fuu: bar
Note: The variable %fuu is automatically evaluated in a /set or /var command when it is part of the variable name, however elsewhere the variable must be evaluated using either $eval or evaluation brackets, e.g.
if (%moo [ $+ [ %fuu ] ] == 42) if ($($+(%,moo,%fuu),2) == 42)
set -u3 %fuu bar
This will set %fuu to bar and unset it after 3 seconds.
set -s %fuu 3
This will set %fuu to 3 and give an output to the active window: * Set %fuu to 3
