ok here it is:
"Tcl error [himc:topic:show]: invalid idx"

its a script for resyncing the topic and recaling the topic via dcc, however i wanted it to be used in the public channel.
so i changed all the entries in the script where it said "dcc" to "pub" now when i type resync or savetopic in the channel it works fine but the other commands like saytopic dont, i get this error displayed in the dcc window: "Tcl error [himc:topic:show]: invalid idx"
i didnt paste the script in here because its too long, but if it would help tell me what section to paste here and i will.
thanks for any help in advance.

ok, so would changing the "putdcc" entries to "putpub" work, or is putpub even a real command, if its not do you have any idea what i could change it to?

kain, a script which was written for use with dcc, needs a substantial overhaul to make it work with public irc messages.
In the bots /doc directory you will find a document tcl-commands.doc. Reviewing the "BIND TYPES" should give you an idea of the differences between "bind DCC" and "bind pubm".
