sigh.
If we are truely supposed to be against helping people setting up things related to warez, why are we still helping them?

Guess I didn't think of it in that light.

set string map [list " " "."] $arg

should be

set varname [string map {" " "."} $arg]

No clue what this is trying to accomplish:

set pregroup [string range [lindex $arg 0] [expr {[string last - [lindex $arg 0]] + 1}] end ]

Maybe try reading the manpages for 'string' and 'lindex' instead of just randomly mix-mashing these together like that.

Or you can use

Code:

join [split $string] .

'string map' would probably be your friend here, assuming you've got tcl8.2 or later installed.

Code:

string map [list " " "."] $string

If 'string map' is not available on your system, you could use regsub instead. Keep in mind that regular expressions can be abit "tricky" however...

First off, don't ever use lrange (or lindex for that matter) in that fashion!
lrange is supposed to be used on lists, not plain text. What you should be using is 'string range' or possibly 'string strip'.

As for getting correct ranges for either lrange or string range, use end-1 as end-of-range argument to drop the last char (string range) or list item (lrange).

Manpage for 'string' can be found here

Hi guys. when I am logging a line of text from #channel to logfile. How do I strip of the last charactor before writing the line to the logfile?

Some of my users have this dam annoying script which puts [ and ] start and end of every line they type.

Now I can miss out the first [ by lindex $text 1 end] and it works perfectly - just need to drop the VERY last char which happens to be a ] - as its logged in the file as \] - which is very annoying and very ugly.

Any help please --- I looked around the board for the strip syntax but I am either not really understanding it right or the posted did not seem line they would help any.

Thanks guys -

PS - its about time but I am writing my own darn script and not just requesting the full script this time he he - yay Quest
