Dopestar,

the reason for the added characters is that your variable $info now has become a list of separated items. You will have to "join" these separated items. Something like:

set info [join [lrange $temp 8 [llength $temp]]]

For some reason list operations on strings are often used in eggdrop tcl's.
Why not using a (faster) string operation (scan) on a string?

gets $fd temp
close $dateichen

scan $temp "%s %s %s %s %s %s %s %s %[^n]" nickname channel hostmask weekday month day daytime year info

Make sure that the total number of items (9: nickname, channel etc.) is available, else the scan will break.

well thx, but it fixes ony half of the problem. now if there is a quote for example
"bla blal bla bla" bla

the tcl changes it to

"{bla} bla bla" bla

any ideas?

As stated, you are trying to perform list command on a string.

Simply changing

Code:

set temp [gets $dateichen]

Code:

set temp [split [gets $dateichen]]

should fix the problem.

This usualy happens when you start handling a list as a string.

You would have to show use the offending code to see any way of fixing it.
