script to send notice that @nickname trigger don't work

One possibility is that you entered the code wrong initially, changed it, rehashed (instead of restarting), thus leaving the original incorrect bind in tact and still usable...

Another possibility is that you loaded the bot from scratch and when doing so, the bot has not yet connected to irc, and botnick may be "" (empty), thus meaning that the bind would just be "@".... If this is the problem, then a better bind would be bind pub - @$nick instead.
all bots still reply to just @ after I did a rehash .. I'll try the alternative codes later today. I appreciate all the input.

That's exactly what I was saying... you should NOT use .rehash...
you should have used .restart.

Or, instead of doing all that work, have a bind to match all public text against the desired trigger (@), and check for the appropriate botnick from within that proc itself, if you want/need to handle all those cases.

ie.

Code:

bind pubm - "#% @*" mybindproc mybind {nick uhost hand chan text} {  global botnick  set who [string tolower [lindex [split $text] 0]]  if {@[string tolower $botnick] != $who} { return }  puthelp "NOTICE $nick :I am not serving right now"}

(Heh, that bind looks like censored cursing)

Another alternative to the @$nick binding suggested by strikelight could be to bind the pub bind to an evnt init-server: something like:

bind evnt - init-server init_the_proc

proc init_the_proc {type} {
global botnick
bind pub - @$botnick ....
}

The slight advantage of this is that the bind is in operation only after the bot is on the IRC server, and $botnick holds the actual bot nickname (which, incidentally, may not coincide with $nick). I'd suggest also to check for bot's nick changes, and change the bind as appropriate.

Strikelight, I changed my code to:

bind pub - @$bot reply:share

proc reply:share {nick uhost hand chan arg} {
puthelp "NOTICE $nick :I'm a robot, NOT sharing files!"
}

and got this error:

can't read "bot": no such variable
while executing
"bind pub - @$bot reply:share "
(file "scripts/notrigger.tcl" line 1)
invoked from within
"source scripts/notrigger.tcl"

my code seems fine:

bind pub - @$botnick reply:share

proc reply:share {nick uhost hand chan arg} {
puthelp "NOTICE $nick :I'm a robot, NOT sharing files!"
}

are u sure you have the pub bind @$botnick ?
it won't reply to @ unless the bind is bind pub - @ reply:share

so make sure it's bind pub - @$botnick reply:share

how many bots did you load your script on? I loaded on all 8 bots on my botnet and they reply when I type @

Sir, could you tweak the code? Thanks so much.

I only typed @ and all of the bots with the script loaded sent me a notice. If i type @botnick only that bot will send me a notice so there must be something up with the code.

Works fine for me. Only replies to @... No notices when I just type "@"...

Thanks Sir_Fz....

well it shouldn't reply on @ it should reply to @ , as for the pub bind, read tcl-commands.doc in the /doc dir of your eggdrop's dir.

read tcl-commands.doc for pub binds.

this is a basic script:
Code:
bind pub - @$botnick reply:shareproc reply:share {nick uhost hand chan arg} { puthelp "NOTICE $nick :I'm not sharing any files."}

what's pub binds? Also, when I typed @ by itself on the channel, ALL my bots with the script loaded sent me a notice with a mesage. How can I fix this and also add some flood settings? I really appreciate it, maybe it should be in the TCL archives... I'm sure many people would use this esp. on fserv channels. Thanks!
