Strip control codes italic font [Solved]

2016-04-15T08:43:30-04:00

I already solved and it works for all (italics, bold, underline, colors...)

Code:

regsub -all {[\001-\010]|[\013-\037]|[\177]|\003([0-9]{1,2}(,[0-9]{1,2})?)?} $a {} a

Thanks to caesar and willyw for their help and concern to fix it .

IMPORTANT EDIT:
Use this workaround at your own risk, it can cause problems with CTCP .
Please DO NOT use it!

I Do not remove the solution so that it can investigate the reasons that can cause damage to the CTCP .
If a moderator deems it necessary, edit or delete this post.

I'm asking in the mIRC official forum where is the control code.
When responding me I share here....
Edit:
Someone answered mIRC forum that the character is: $chr(29)

I tried and character work , creating the italic font.
Do not know if this can help ...

So I had the idea to see what it looked like, raw.

Tried .console +r in a bot. Can't see it.

Even tried /debug -n newwindow
in mIRC - and can't see it.

Where _IS_ the control code? I've never really thought about this before...

Just downloaded latest mIRC client to test things out and nothing that I used to know doesn't seem to be working any more.

I have no idea what's the current code for italics.. Only Ctrl + I seems to making text in italics.

Sadly the only option would be to drop the control codes when playing trivia.

Try this:
Code:
regsub -all -- {\003[0-9]{0,2}(,[0-9]{0,2})?|\017|\037|\002|\026|\006|\007} $a {} $a
Haven't tested it so let me know if works.

It did not work , but do not worry, I suggested to the user who does not use such font more if you plan to play BogusTrivia.
Very friendly and thanks for the help .

The two anterior methods I mentioned works very well, except for italic font.
Very grateful for your help and if you have any other way to fix it would thank it a lot.

Oh crap. Haven't tested the code, found it over the Internet and thought might help. You are right, ran a test right now and doesn't seem to be working. Sorry.

I see you tried two methods that should do what you asked for, and I fail to understand why they don't work.

Will open up a test bot to see what's up.

Is there any way to perform strip the italic font (slanted letter) ?

So far I am using this code which I use for colors, bold , underlined, but it does not work for italic font (slanted letter)

Code:

catch {unbind raw - PRIVMSG *raw:irc:msg}catch {unbind raw - PRIVMSG *raw:PRIVMSG}bind raw - PRIVMSG striprivmsgproc striprivmsg {f k a} {   regsub -all {\002|\003([0-9]{1,2}(,[0-9]{1,2})?)?|\017|\026|\037} $a {} a    *raw:irc:msg $f $k $a   *raw:PRIVMSG $f $k $a}

I also tried this code, but it did not work:

Code:

catch {unbind raw - PRIVMSG *raw:irc:msg}catch {unbind raw - PRIVMSG *raw:PRIVMSG}bind raw - PRIVMSG striprivmsgproc striprivmsg {f k a} {  set a [stripcodes abcgru $a]    *raw:irc:msg $f $k $a   *raw:PRIVMSG $f $k $a}

I never cared the italics, but a person tried to play BogusTrivia wrote in italics and the bot not obeyed.
