First, learn how to consult the Search function of the forum before asking a question and second check this and this posts.

Thanks for that caeser. Handy to have.

ok the fix Sir_Fz gave me worked great but now i have another Odd problem. its only adding 9 characters of a nick instead of the 14 it is even though i have set the nicklength in NET Type 5 to 32 characters. do i have to do anything specific to add users to the userlist with more than 9 characters in their nick?

Also, do check Peterre's "How to write eggdrop scripts that won't choke on special characters" page in order to understand things better.

Hi again. I have written a script to add members to my channel with a public trigger !addmember it works fine on normal nicks but some peoples nicks contain Square Braces ie [nutz] and the bot will not add flags to these users. it works on 1.6.16 windrop but refuses to work on 1.6.15 eggdrop. any ideas.

here is the bit code i cant get to work

Code:

set newmember [lindex $arg 0]set flags "X|Xao"        chattr $newmember +$flags $chan        setuser $newmember hosts $newhost        putserv "NOTICE $newmember :You have been added to the bot. Welcome to our channel"        save        return 1

Thanks in advance
^DooM^
