Getting nick from host

Yeh, short of an actual function to do it which from your responses would indicate not i think the binding will be my best bet.

Thanks for your help.

Why not bind on nick change...

Code:

bind nick -|- {*} nickchproc nickch {nick uhost hand chan newnick} {    # code here to check if users host/nick is in the list of hosts/nicks    # code here to change the nick for the host}

No, it doesnt, and i'm messing about with this so that if the user changes their nick the script can still msg them, i have their original nick stored but if they change it then any messages to their original nick with just get lost in space so need a fresh nick for them!

Thanks anyway.

I don't suppose the stored host does not contain the nick-part?

Hi i'm keeping track of users actions using their host: getchanhost nick
but then some automated tasks can happen which requires a notice to then be sent to all the users logged in the script, here i need to be able to convert their host back into the nick that is on the channel, doing all this as they may change their nick and i still need to identify them.
Is there an opposite function to getchanhost or a better way to do it?

Thanks
Mike
