replace

Code:

[lindex $text ...

with

Code:

[lindex [split $text] ...

and

Code:

[lrange $text 2 100]

with

Code:

[join [lrange [split $text] 2 end]]

I have a script that allows people to kick someone through a ctcp command. It only works if those people are online in a seperate controlroom, wich has restricted access.

the command is like /ctcp botname kick roomname nick kickreason

Code:

bind CTCP - kick ctcpkickproc ctcpkick { nick host handle dest keyword text } {if { $keyword == "KICK" } {      if { [onchan $nick "#controlroom"] } { set kickchan [lindex $text 0] set kicknick [lindex $text 1] set kickmsg [lrange $text 2 100]       putserv "PRIVMSG #controlroom :kickcommand used by $kicknick in $kickchan , by $nick"       putserv "kick $kickchan $kicknick $kickmsg"}       }}

And it works, except when the targetted nick has a \ in his nick, wich seems te be processed as a control code afaik.

So my question is ofcourse, how can I use that script even for nicks with \ in it ? is there some way to convert those \ to normal characters ?
