Mortitian, you'll need to pay a bit more attention to strings that can possibly contain [] chars and handle them with care...

In the piece of code Mortician supplied, what care should be taken using $arg? It is a string of text, and used as such.

This needs to be placed in a tcl script.

I suggest you start reading up on tcl scripting - this is best achieved by a: downloading the source and reading all the docs that come with that, and b: start downloading scripts from the tcl archive and studying them for pointers.

Once you've learnt tcl scripting, you'll be able to do anything you want!!

apart from that, yes, thats exactly what it would do, but it would let even non-users set the topic, which may be undesirable. You might wanna use bind pub ov|ov !topic, which would only allow ops or voices to trigger this command.

At the risk of sounding like the idiot i am

what do i do with that bro.?

and when i get it where it needs to go all they would have to do is type:
!topic xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
and the bot would set it?

sorry for my ignorance.

well to give it to the users who have the +v flag on the channel you could do this simple script:

Code:

bind pub - !topic pub:topicproc pub:topic {nick uhost handle chan arg} {if {[matchattr $handle &v $chan]} {if {[botisop $chan]} {putserv "TOPIC $chan :$arg"} else {putserv "NOTICE $nick :I can't change the topic because I'm not opped on $chan"}} else { return }}

well basic

greetings

Is there a script that any one knows of that would allow me to set a custom flag to a user so that they can use the bot to set the topic?

The bot is a op
the channel is +t

I have 2 people in our group that i want to give the ability to set the topic, but yet i do not want to make them op's.

Any help on this would be most apperciated.

I searched for topic tcl's and found nothing like this.
I also searched the fourms here and again found nothing.

Thanks for your time,

MK
