We like to help others that help themselves..

Try posting the code you have tried, and we can explain what you have done wrong, which may help you with learning Tcl.

Sure, here is my code:

Code: Select all

bind PRIVMSG    -       !join  loginAndStuff

set pasteChan "#evilchan"

# loginAndStuff
proc loginAndStuff {handle idx arg} {
   channel add $pasteChan {
    chanmode "+nt"
    idle-kick 20
    flood-chan 10:60
    flood-deop 3:10
    flood-kick 3:10
    flood-join 5:60
    flood-ctcp 3:60
   }

   channel set $pasteChan -bitch +secret -autoop -clearbans -stopnethack -enforcebans
   channel set $pasteChan -greet -revenge -dynamicbans -protectops -statuslog -userbans
   channel set $pasteChan -shared -autovoice -cycle -seen -dontkickops -dontdeopops
   putlog "joined $pasteChan"
   putchan $pasteChan "IM da evilbottie"
   return 1
}

when someone write !join in a query with the bot its suppose to join the chan specified in $pasteChan

no need to add the channel settings like that. The settings you set in the config-file is global and will apply to all channels, if you add them using the built-in .+chan command or through a tcl-script.
also... read the tcl-commands.doc found in the /doc dir on your eggdrop about different kind of binds.
