Ok it took me a bit cause I made some mistakes at first but I finally saw the light
passing on using the global command works now

Thanks for pushing me in the right direction nml375 and for the explantion on the second problem, that also works like a charm now

1: Check out the global command.
Obviously you are already using it, probably just need to read alittle to figure out how to use it.

2: Use \ooo or \xhh to create any character, not /ooo or /xhh (ooo being the octal value, such as 002, xhh being hexadecimal value, such as x02).
Thus, this should do the trick:

Code:

bind pubm - "$prech \002\[*" reread

Passing on a variable outside a proc

2007-10-06T00:16:33-04:00

I just started learning tcl and came across a couple things I just couldn't find any answers to.
Here goes:

Code:

bind pub - !test linereadproc lineread {nick host handle chan text} {  global prech homech  if {$chan == $homech} {  putserv "PRIVMSG $prech :$text" }

My first question is, is it possible to pass a variable from one procedure onto another procedure (without using a file) and how qould that work
In this case the content of $text, since I want to use it in my second procedure.

-
My second procedure will read a specific line, which starts with [
My first thought was to use the \[*

Code:

bind pubm - "$prech \[*" reread

which obviously doesn't work since the [ is in bold
after that I also tried /002\[ to no avail

Code:

bind pubm - "$prech /002\[*" reread

My question is, is there a way to get this to work in the bind pubm line.

Thanks in advance
