pasting colours though external script

everything's possible, you could dump stuff on IRC using Ada or PL/SQL, but that's not the point here - the point is this forum is for Tcl scripting, not for shell scripting, so piping shell scripts through Tcl is off-topic

Your saying its not possible ? I'm totally shocked if that is the case.

don't use shell script, use Tcl only

I want to paste colours onto irc, but the eggdrop ends up pushing raw commands onto irc.

tcl contains:

set output [exec /bin/rank.sh]
putquick "PRIVMSG $chan :$output"

my bash script contains :

echo \\0034TV\\003

which if run in the shell returns:

./rank.sh
\0034TV\003

On irc, unforunatly the RAW text is output including "\". Looking at some of the other posts I saw subst mentioned.
