as I can create you aliases for /umode +flags ¿?
UMODE Unknown command
hmmm....
I cannot use /umode +Flags leaves to me, UMODE Unknown command. is possible to be created an alias for umode, asi since there is alias for identify
instead of using /mode nick +flags to use /umode +flags... can be created alias? .. in server, NOT in mIRC

*Ron goes into "translator mode"*
Sounds like he wants an alias /UMODE that let's you do, for example /UMODE +x instead of /MODE currentnick +x.
I'm not sure if aliases can do this though.

Some IRC clients provide you with a /umode command that does the same as /mode <yournick>, without having to enter your current nickname. For example, X-Chat or EPIC. (Maybe mIRC, too?) If your client is not like that, /umode2, which aquanight suggested and is a server command, should still work, it's only one character longer.
Oh, and if you'd like to know, currently UnrealIRCd doesn't support "real aliases" (when target is a command). Perhaps sometime in the future...

in ANY window connected or not .. or you can open the script editor and in aliases put

Thought as much.

you don't need the tick after $1 simply because there is no spaces in usermodes which means that $2 won't ever exist.
as a side note you can make a chanmode alias as well
Usage would them be /cmode #channel <args>
At that point the the tick is required because there are spaces in /mode when applied to channels.

As aquanight said... Don't forget the Snomasks, e.g.

if you include SNOmasks .. sure.
I wasn't including snomasks because I have a seperate alias for that .. but your right, sorry I didn't read your post correctly aquanight.
As another side note I have an mirc add-on in development for Unreal 3.2+ that filters Server Notices. The addon re-routes the server notices to specified windows, either status, the active window or a dedicated @window. There is also a seperate setting for *chat notices .. also to status, active or a special chat @window. The filter also features a dialog that helps you set snomasks and usermodes with a few mouse clicks. I will need to clean the code up and put a few final touches on it but if anyone is interested in it .. let me know. The add-on works with mIRC6.X and up. Once I get the add-on finished I'll have some screenshots.

Slightly better (and the more-or-less version I use):
Though, since I use Klient now, it's a bit more complicated than that, but that's essentially it. Basically, you do /cmode in a channel and the mode change applies to that channel

mIRC can use that alias as well. However, so that I can change modes in channels without having to put the focus in it, or as an oper with can_override I don't even need to be in it to use /cmode.

In that case, wouldn't regular /mode be better, because it's one less character to type?
