You'll have to make a little custom script/proc for logging things, and then pass the input through the [stripcodes] function:

stripcodes
Description: strips specified control characters from the string given.
strip-flags can be any combination of the following:
b - remove all boldface codes
c - remove all color codes
r - remove all reverse video codes
u - remove all underline codes
a - remove all ANSI codes
g - remove all ctrl-g (bell) codes
Returns: the stripped string.
Module: core

Need to strip color and underline codes out of log files

2007-02-12T00:51:06-04:00

I'm basically trying to use eggdrop for nothing more than creating good readable logs for a IRC channel.

I've got it working the way I want, except that a lot of people use colors and such and those codes show up in the log as control characters, etc.

Is there an easy way to strip those out?

Thanks,
David Chamberlian
