Announce: TCD - Topic Count Down Script

2006-11-24T13:04:40-04:00

I got a few feature requestes, if thats ok

The bot shouldt announce event is now at the set time.
(i got it set to announce every 10 min, but when the event arrives, it dont announce, since its in the middel of the 10 min timer)

Ability to revert to old topic when event is over if that is possible ??

Thanks for a nice script

Announce: TCD - Topic Count Down Script

Another new script, this one stores events and sets channel topics and/or makes announcements on channels every xx minutes to show a countdown of when will occur.

This script is loosely based on the date.tcl script I (re)did, but this one is specifically for doing countdowns.
...............................................................................................................................................................................
To set an event:
.tcd event

<#chan:announce|topic|both>

The date format is: JAN 01 2007 21:12 (time is in 24hr format)

The option for <#chan:announce|topic|both> means:
#channelname:make public announcements OR set topic OR do both

If you want to have the same event announced on multiple channels, simply enter the same event data with a DIFFERENT and <#channelname:option>

Example:
.tcd event geddysbday jul 29 2007 21:12 #mychannel:both Geddy Lee's 53rd Birthday Party!

Script is available here:
http://members.dandy.net/~fbn/tcd.tcl.txt

I'll post it to the archive after a few days if no problems are found.
