Check doc/tcl-commands.doc (clue: the mask in a pubm bind is matched against more than just the message)

Code:

bind pub - hello pub:helloproc pub:hello {nick host handle chan text} { if {$nick == "psyjoniz"} {       putserv "PRIVMSG $chan :hey, $nick, hows it going?" } else {putserv "PRIVMSG $nick :i'm sorry, do i know you?"}}bind pub - "giveinfo" pub:giveinfoproc pub:giveinfo {nick host handle chan text} { if {$nick == "psyjoniz"} {       putserv "PRIVMSG $chan :nick-$nick host-$host handle-$handle chan-$chan text-$text"}}bind pubm - "giveinfopubm" pubm:giveinfoproc pubm:giveinfo {nick host handle chan text} { if {$nick == "psyjoniz"} {       putserv "PRIVMSG $chan :nick-$nick host-$host handle-$handle chan-$chan text-$text"}}

ok - the first and second binds and procs work fine - but the third one doesn't. am i doing something wron in it? if not - then my pubm bind specification isn't working correctly. would someone try the above code to see if i'm crazy or not? thanks.

change pubm to pub

for some reason the copy of eggdrop i have is like not complete or something - when i'm in dcc chat i do not have all the commands that are supposed to be available like .whois - pubm does not seem to be working - but pub does - does _anyone_ have any idea why this might be happening? i don't recall changing anything in the configuration(s) that strikes me as being associated with this sort of response.

bind pubm - hello pubm:helloproc pubm:hello {nick host handle chan text} {        putserv "PRIVMSG $handle :hello"}

ok, i'm guessing here...

Code:

proc pubm:hello {nick host handle chan text} {}

when binding for pubm - the 5 vars - are they populating in the proc by themselves? and just taking on the varname you specify per proc?

and if so - is this different per bind type?

and is it puserv or putserv - now you've got me more confused.

it's putserv
the right way is putserv "PRIVMSG :"
where target can be a nick on the network or a channel.

also your proc is wrong. a pubm bind requires more than one argument

check the TCL-Commands.doc - Bind part, there you'll find the right one

i've read it - none of the examples seem to work - and from what i can gather the var's expressly included are magically set....... i'm assuming that the documentation assumes that you know to set the vars previous in the code but it doesn't specify anything of that nature.

could you please tell me _why_ they are incomplete?

why can't i just get someone to point me to a simple 'hello world' script? all i want is to, in public chat with a bot, say 'hello' and have the bot respond with 'hello, , i am '. documentation is great - except when you follow it and it doesn't work the way it says its supposed to.

and is it puserv or putserv - now you've got me more confused.

is it _really_ so hard to just point out my mistake instead of telling me to go check the documentation? i'm all for learning on your own but i've been at this for a day and i can't get any response out of the bot whatsoever aside from default functionality and i _have_ read - and everything i've read tells me the snippit i'm attempting to use should work the way i'm desiring it to.

The proc of your bind and the puserv thing is not complete. Consult the doc/tcl-commands.doc file.

basically i lack the understanding of syntax i guess... here is a simple bind and proc i want to use when in a channel with my bot so that it will say hello back to me:

Code:

bind pubm - hello pubm:helloset handle "psyjoniz"proc pubm:hello {handle} {        global botnick        putserv "hello, $handle, i am $botnick"}

what this means to me, from what i can understand so far, is that when i type 'hello' when in the channel with the bot, it will respond 'hello, psyjoniz, i am '. this, of course, is not happening.

what am i doing wrong?

and yes - i am including the tcl script correctly as i pointed it in the wrong direction and got an error the pointed it correctly and no error (bot loaded correctly; joined preset channel; updated flags when ops was given).

very confused - any help would be much appreciated. thanks.
