Brackets and timer problem

You should use

to pass the arguments to timer/utimer.

Code:

utimer 3 [list checkaccessafterjoin $nick $host $chan]

Brackets and timer problem

2004-02-20T19:26:15-04:00

I have a short script that checks the access of a user after they join the channel. When the user joins the channel, a timer is created:

Code:

utimer 3 "checkaccessafterjoin $nick $host $chan"

Now, the error I'm getting is if someone joins with a nickname that has brackets in it (something like [NGL]Fate), it'll treat what is inside the brackets as a command. I get the following error:

Code:

Tcl error in script for 'timer173':invalid command name "NGL"

Other than it being annoying, I'm also worried about security. Like what if someone joins with a nickname that has "[die]" in it.

How can I have eggdrop ignore the brackets in the user's nickname?

Thanks
