Problem with bind pub

[Nara]

I am attempting to bind pub a command that works in all channels, but then exclude channels from it using an if, something like this:

Code: Select all

bind pub - - @test proc:test

proc proc:test { nick host hand chan text } {
if {$chan != #chan} {
putquick "PRIVMSG $chan :Hi"
}
}

However, when I use this, it creates an error, rather then executing it. If you could please give me the proper way to do a command like this, I would most appreciate it.

Code: Select all

- -

should be

Code: Select all

-|-

Erm, actually, I meant to do just one -. But would that be why the script isn't working (as in excluding the channel)?

[demond]

put #chan in double quotes

and use case-insensitive comparison, learn about Tcl [string] command

Look at this thread

for a right elegant solution. You'd just need to put a ! in front of the if expression, changing the logic to "if this flag doesn't exist, do..." All that's left then is to .chanset #chan +flag on the chans you want to exclude.
