I was under the impression that I would need to convert the time to something readable, in order to use the following commands properly.

So I should remove this:

Code:

set tower_time [ctime $tell_time]

But leave in:

Code:

set tell_time [lindex $args 0]

And add the 'args' variable?

set tell_time [lindex $args 0]

There's no 'args' variable, thus why the error. Why you get the time from 'ctime' if you already have it from the 'time:clock' procedure?

This has been already discussed here.

I have the following code in place:

Code:

bind time - "00 * * * *" clockproc time:clock {min hour day month year} {set tell_time [lindex $args 0]set tower_time [ctime $tell_time]if {$tower_time == 12:00} {putquick "PRIVMSG $channel :\00306The clocktower tolls the Noon Bell."}elseif {$tower_time == 13:00} {putquick "PRIVMSG $channl :\00306The clocktower tolls the First Bell."}}

With the following error, as a result:

Code:

 Tcl error [clock]: unknown or ambiguous subcommand "00": must be add, clicks, format, microseconds, milliseconds, scan, or seconds

The error comes up every hour, so I know that part is functioning, at least. I'm just not sure what is keeping the bot from posting to the specified channel. $channel is defined earlier in the script.
