If you have 'must-be-owner' set to 1 then you should put your handle in the owner variable: set owner "" and then .restart the bot.

Make sure that the user you put at 'set owner' is the same user you use to login to your bot via dcc chat/telnet.

and I've commented out the line
Code:
#unbind dcc n tcl *dcc:tcl

You said you are not running the current version of Eggdrop, correct?
You are using ver .19?

I'm trying to remember....
I hope you have a fully commented eggdrop.conf - - if so, go to that part, and read it carefully, about how to enable the .tcl command

Hmm, well the .conf file does say

Code:

set owner "Bob"

and I've commented out the line

Code:

#unbind dcc n tcl *dcc:tcl

Anything else I've missed?

That means either the dcc bind for .tcl isn't active or your handle isn't set at 'set owner'.

It tells me to go see a psychiatrist

.tcl logfile
What? You need '.help'

However, when I try

.tcl logfile (or any other .tcl command listed in the command list)

The bot doesn't seem to understand it.

What happens?

.status all in DCC/telnet will list the current logs. just doing .tcl logfile blindly probably isnt the best thing imo.

Code:

logfile [  ]   Description: creates a new logfile, which will log the modes given for the                      channel listed. If no logfile is specified, a list of existing                      logfiles will be returned.                      "*" indicates all channels. You can also change the                      modes and channel of an existing logfile with this command.                      Entering a blank mode and channel ("") makes the bot stop                      logging there.   Returns: filename of logfile created, or, if no logfile is specified, a list of                logfiles such as: {mco * eggdrop.log} {jp #lame lame.log}

maybe do a scripting request, for a dcc command script to stop and start logging on a channel. OR if you really want to use the .tcl in dcc/telnet. I would at least read the above manul entry for logfile and note

Entering a blank mode and channel ("") makes the bot stop logging there.

but i wouldn't recommend doing it this way.

Hi,

Thanks for your reply, I hadn't realised I had to enable the tcl commands.

I was already bot owner, so that bit was fine.

However, when I try

.tcl logfile (or any other .tcl command listed in the command list)

The bot doesn't seem to understand it.

Should I have a logfile.tcl file under the /scripts folder? I have the list of commands in the /doc, so I'm guessing it should be part of my version, but there's obviously something missing...

Hi,

I couldn't find the help I need anywhere on the forum, so apologies if this is obvious...

I've configured my eggdrop to log what happens on the channel to file, it all works well but I'd like to be able to turn the logging off/on using DCC commands.
...

An idea to consider -

First, examine your eggdrop.conf, looking for the section about
enabling .tcl and .set commands for bot owner.
Enable .tcl

Next, visit:
http://www.eggheads.org/support/egghtml ... mands.html
and find:
logfile [ ]
and read that.

With .tcl enabled, and if you are bot owner, you should then be able to enter
.tcl logfile
in partyline, and get a list of logfiles.
According to tcl-commands.doc, you should also be able to modify the flags too.

Note that if you restart the bot, then the settings in eggdrop.conf will be restored, and if you wanted to turn off logging, you'd have to re-do the above steps in DCC chat with bot.

I can't find anything to do that, I guess what I'm after is some sort of

.logfile

Any idea if it's at all possible?

I'm using eggdrop 1.6.19.

Thanks in advance
K
