A simple example would look like this

Code: 

proc someproc {} {  set now [clock scan "today 00:00"]  if {![info exists ::QuoteTimestamp] || $::QuoteTimestamp <= $now} {    #Generate new quote here...    set ::QuoteTimestamp $now  }  #Send the quote to the channel}

I've a script that's able to fetch a quote from a MySQL database, with the command !quote.

But now I'd like to have something like !quoteoftheday, which returns a quote, which will return the same quote all this day long (selected randomly ofcourse).

So that it returns a different quote everyday.

How can I do this?
