output formating question

thanks for the reply.

After further page flipping (by your guideance) I have changed the bind from a pub to a pubm as I don't want to deal with an eval at this time.

it was a simple matter to change. thanks!!!

because you're using the variable $args which holds special meaning in tcl (go read the manual page for proc for the details).

yes its me again. hopefully this won't be one of those "hard things are simple and simple things are hard" issue.
it has to do with the format of the args variable in a proc.
EG.
proc html:mgs {nick uhost handle chan args} {
global botnick
;# sniping code to make this shorter

putserv "PRIVMSG $user : Urgent message sent by: $nick $args"

;# sniping code again.

The output is formated as follows:
Urgent message Sent by: mark2 {test again}

The question has to do with the curly braces around "test again". A: why are they there? B: how can I get rid of them?

oh yes.. a C: how are you posting code so it saves its formating on this board?

Thanks in advance!
