My sugestion would be to use a different editor.

Do a search on the net for "pfe32".

It's a good, free editor, that can save as usix files.

WHile it may not be developed any more, it works without fail.

oh yeah....

my keyboard produces ", dont know where the slanted ones came from

Hmmm, edit them all into the same type. And i get the puthelp, wrong number of Arguements, and putcmdlog, wrong number of arguements.

Damn frustrating. What else is wrong?

Is it just my eyes playing tricks on me, or are you using two different types of quotation marks?

Hey

Well i did some work on it. Kinda improved the script so it works now... well, it doesnt produce arguement errors and triggers those errors on production of !staturl

[18:26:39] [18:26] Tcl error [pub:livestat]: missing "

I get this from the bot. Looks like a syntax error, but i cant find where the missing " goes

#Provides the !staturl public event
bind pub - “!staturl” pub:livestat
proc pub:livestat {nick host hand chan livestaturl } {
putcmdlog "<$nick@$chan> !$hand! staturl"
puthelp "PRIVMSG $chan :The Livestats URL is $livestaturl”
}

putlog "\Livestats V0.1 by Weirdo"

Thats the script as is, cant find out where the missing " is at all. Any ideas people?

Ah, i get it. So for this particular script, running where !staturl is placed as the first word on a line, PUB would be much easier. And i set it to look for !staturl as the command?

Will the script automatically look for this in all channels the bot is on? Kinda confused where you put the bit where you tell it to send the notice to the user which says this command. Do you put it in a separate procedure which is associated to the bind?

In PUBM, it states, it is like MSGM.

(5) MSGM (stackable)
bind msgm
procname

Description: matches the entire line of text from a /msg with the
mask. This is useful for binding Tcl procs to words or phrases
spoken anywhere within a line of text.
Module: server

Thus, PUBM is the channel triggered version.

This bind allows you to match whole lines, rather than just the first word, based on a trigger.

IE, take this line of incoming text

Visit http://www.egghelp.org/ for help with eggdrop setup

If you use a mask of "* http://*", in PUBM or MSGM, it will trigger on any line (based on the bind, and where the message is destined) that has a URL, begining with http://.

Whereas PUB and MSG binds, expect a ketword, that is the first word in a line of text.

    (4) PUB
         bind pub
         procname

         Description: used for commands given on a channel. The first word
           becomes the command and everything else is the text argument.
         Module: irc

So this one might be more suited for !staturl or commands given in channel rather than pubm?

The only difference i see in the syntax is the replacing the used in pubm

Still not sure if i am grasping this correctly...

Re-read tcl-commands.doc

There is a differance between the PUBM and PUB binds.

Looking at your script, you have not yet grasped the differance.

Yah it's right. For future reference you may find it faster to just try it than ask though hehe.

(6) PUBM (stackable)
         bind pubm
         procname

         Description: just like MSGM, except it's triggered by things said
           on a channel instead of things /msg'd to the bot. The mask is
           matched against the channel name followed by the text and can
           contain wildcards.
         Module: irc

Is that right?

Check tcl-commands.doc for the number of arguments and the order they're supposed to be in. You can't just type words there and have eggdrop understand what you mean :)

Hi

Decided today would learn tcl. Make a simple script that when !staturl was entered in any of its channels, would display the livestats url. I got it to the point where the only error i get is this.

[22:05:46] [22:05] Tcl error [livestat_announce]: called "livestat_announce" with too many arguments

But i really dont have a clue what is going wrong

This is the script itself

set livestaturl “http://seb01.dns2go.com:4000”

bind pubm - !staturl livestat_announce

proc livestat_announce {nick chan text} {
set $chan #cometanime
set $text http://seb01.dns2go.com:4000
putnotc $nick $text
}

Kinda crappy i know. But could you help me with it?
