Need a small add script :)

Hi there,

I need a small script for adding and reading data from a file.

The trigger it must respond to looks like this:
!add data type

If I'm not mistaken code for that part should be

Code:

set data [lindex [split $arg] 1]set type [lindex [split $arg] 2]

However, I need to write whats added to a texfile, new line each time something gets added. Textfile should look like "unixtime type data".

For the reading part, trigger would be !find data.
Output to chan would be FOUND: data was added XXX (w/d/hr/m/s) ago (mmdd)..

Thats all I need.
However, if possible and if its not too much work, there would also be quite nice with;

· Reading from textfile before adding to check if data allready exists. If so, return/halt.
· Adding the recently added data into cach/memory for 3600 seconds, and check cach/memory if data is allready there before checking from textfile (would prevent unnecessary lag/reading afaik).

I'd be greatful for any help I could get.
