adding a linefeed. and wanting ascii and chr commands

[topdawg_b]

hi im using.
set out [open $recfile$ext w]
puts $out $text
close $out
everything works in the program fine but when the textfile is opened with wordpad all the text is on 1 line.
what can I add to $text to make it put a linefeed or new line command that the worpad would recognize

2. in mirc they have a $chr(num) command thats prints an ascii character and a asc("char") command that gives u the ascii number of a character. does eggdrop have such commands?

thanks . this is a great site

1. Are you making this file under some Linux OS and after that u trying to look into it under windows OS?

for linux can be \n, for windows can be \r\n or just \r, try.

2. try

Code: Select all

set char "a" 
scan $char "%c" int 
puts $int

[topdawg_b]

the \r\n did the trick ty

[topdawg_b]

the scan $char "%c" int converts to an ascii number what prints a char from an ascii number

[tomekk]

the scan $char "%c" int converts to an ascii number what prints a char from an ascii number

Code: Select all

set char [format %c $int]
