OK - Too answer both the questions.

First, eggdrop uses a system, to prevent flooding of IRC servers, and to consrve bandwidth, by not sending messages, that are simply repeated. This functionality can be disabled in the config file. You will need to be working with eggdrop.complete.conf, or simply eggdrop.conf (1.6.13 up).

As for the simplicity of commands. These are commands are not directly provided by eggdrop. Putserv, puthelp and so on are built into modules, and are the current standard for eggdrop, putmsg and so on, are old/campatibility commands, that can be used, so long as a script that provides them is loaded.

Alltools.tcl, which is provided in the scripts directory provides this functionality and much more, like putnotc. The only decumentation for these commands, is at the top of this script, and should be more that suficient.

For this to work correctly, it may well be worth, only enabling the help queue to allow repeated messages, then making sure that the putmsg command uses the puthelp queue. This will allow most bandwidth saving features to remain.

im making a script which will msg something like this when triggered:

###########
# hello #
###########

now the problem is, if i for example
set hashes "###########"
set hello "# hello #"
and

putmsg $nick $hashes
putmsg $nick $hello
putmsg $nick $hashes

then it will only msg

######
# hello #

same result with the other put* commands.
also same result if i make a 'hashes2'
which contains the exact same as 'hashes'.

so i guess it wont send the same [censored] more than once.
is there a way to "force" it?

oh and another thing, why isnt putmsg mentioned in tcl-commands.doc ?
the usage is so much simpler than i.e. putserv

are there other commands not mentioned?

oh thats all for this time stay tuned for my signature:
