I'm guessing its either a stupid noob mistake -- or I should start reading up the tcl documentation some more. But here's a snipplet of what I have:
Code:
proc addstrings {nick uhost w1 w2 w3 text} {        global mainchan file        putserv "NOTICE $mainchan : $nick ( $uhost ) adding $text to $file"        set fs [open strings.txt w]        set w1 [lindex $text  0]        set w2 [lindex $text  1]        set w3 [lindex $text  2]         puts $fs "1. $w1 2. $w2 3. $w3"        close $fs        putserv "NOTICE $mainchan : $text added."        return 1}
It won't write anything to strings.txt..

I have addstrings binded to a msg, could that be why its not working? what could i use other than $text?

I've just recently started messing around with tcl..so I don't really understand much.

I'm guessing you see an error in the partyline saying something to the effect of: "proc addstrings called with not enough arguments"

Consult doc/tcl-commands.doc for the # of parameters a msg bound proc must have.

try adding this : set text [split $text] (I think that the bot must split the text before using [lindex....])

How about this:

Code:

set word1 [lindex $text 0]set word2 [lindex $text 1]set word3 [lindex $text 2]

I was wondering it was possible to change 1 text string (for example: bob is cool) and make it into 3 seperate strings, bob, is, and cool. How would I go about doing this? I've used the search function, but I didn't find anything that could help, well..that I could understand.

I guess that wasn't really that clear, so what im trying to do is having people message the bot with: !add bob is cool and having it put in the text file I set, but like this:

[word1]
bob

[word2]
is

[word3]
cool

Is it possible?
