You simply use them in an if-statement. for example:

Code:

if {[regexp -- {^[A-Z]} $string]} { # do whatever...}

ok, here's what I have for my script so far, I wanna add the lines from the above posts to have it check if the nick Starts with a capitol letter before it runs the proc.

Code:

bind join - * servjoinproc servjoin {nick hand u@h chan} { if { [validuser $nick] == 1 } {   user-set $nick XTRA status "AWS"  }  return 0}

Code:

regsub -all -- {[^A-z]|\^} $string "" stringregexp -- {^[A-Z]} $string

can anyone show me exactly how to set up those two lines so the code will only trigger if the nick of the person who triggers it is capped?

This should do it as well:

Code:

regexp -- {^[A-Z]} $string

returns 1 if the first letter of $string is a capital letter, 0 otherwise.

OR

Code:

string is upper [string index $string 0]

Returns 1 if it starts with a capital letter or a number, 0 if doesnt.

Code:

proc firstup {var} { set first [string range $var 0 0] if {![string isupper $first] && ![string is digit $first]} {  return 0 } {  return 1 }}

ty Fz, what about just to check if the first letter of a nick is uppercase? is there a way to do that with an eggdrop?

This should strip all characters other than [A-z]:

Code:

regsub -all -- {[^A-z]|\^} $string "" string

and to check if the string is all in upper case:

Code:

string is upper $string

I'm writing a script and I'd like to be able to have it analyze a nick on join and determine if it's Capitalized or not.

the other aspect is, that since IRC nicks can have special characters as their first character, I'd need to strip it of all special characters before checking for a capped up nick.

any help would be appreciated
