Help with utimers and slash (\) subsitutions.

2004-05-27T15:34:53-04:00

Umm... this was not my intention in the first place.
But anyway I'll give it a try.

Most good coders I asked recommended me this method
rather than sticking to the one I suggested.

Thanks!

The easiest solution is to write a proc to call from the utimer, that way you don't need to worry about escaping characters, trying to avoid having commands executed right away, etc...

ie.

Code:

proc mycheck {mask nick user chan} {  global list  if {[string match -nocase $mask "${nick}![getchanhost $user $chan]"]} { lappend list $user }}utimer 5 [list mycheck $mask $nick $user $chan]

Help with utimers and slash (\) subsitutions.

Hello,

I have a script scanning user hosts, in a channel
and marking them as clones. Thing is I want it a bit
delayed, it is a bit complicated so I can't call it in another
procedure with a utimer, as transferring variables will be
alot messy.

Here is the fuction I want to set a
utimer on:

Code:

if {[string match -nocase $mask "${nick}![getchanhost $user $chan]"]} { lappend list $user }"

Here is one I came up with, its not working, if
anyone can correct the slash (\) subsitutions
maybe, I would have an idea on this, as im not
sure. Also do I need to add [list... in the getchanhost
segement as well, like I have done? is it correct?

Code:

utimer 5 "if \{\[[list string match -nocase $mask \"$\{nick\}!\[[list getchanhost $user $chan]\]\"]\} \{[list lappend list $user]\}"
