inserting a space

[NewzUK]

Hi - I have this string that adds colour to pieces of data before it's sent to the channel - what I'm trying to do is add a space of either the red or green colour infront of $test, but not having any luck so far! any ideas? thanks!

set test [string map [list + \0030,3+ - \0030,4-] $num]
set test2 [string map [list + \0030,3+ - \0030,4-] [lindex $all 3]]

putserv "PRIVMSG $channel :\0030,12»\0031,15 Nasdaq-100 Pre-Market Indicator > [lindex $all 0] $test ($test2) \0031,15 [lindex $all 1] ET \003"

Can you repeat this, it doesn't mean anything as it is.

sorry - as I'm using a background colour, I want to pad the $test2 info either side with a space which just shows up as colour, like would show up if you did this:

/0030,12 Hello /003

rather than the text hard up against the edges of the colour like:

/0030,12Hello/003

so I'd like this to be either green or red depending on that string that determines the colour based on whether + or - is in $num

thanks - hope that makes it clearer...

Try using a hard space. ALT 0160 never tried it myself.

thanks but that's not it - if anyone else has any ideas...

This is an example of i think you meen what you wanna have :

Code: Select all

set testnum "+123"
set testnum2 "-123"

bind pub - !testnum proc:doshow

proc proc:doshow {nick uhost handle channel arg} {
   global testnum testnum2
   putserv "PRIVMSG $channel : TEST"
   putserv "privmsg $channel : \0030,12»\0031,15 Nasdaq-100 Pre-Market Indicator > [expr $testnum<0?"\00304$testnum":"\00303$testnum"] \0031,15 ET \003]"
   putserv "privmsg $channel : \0030,12»\0031,15 Nasdaq-100 Pre-Market Indicator > [expr $testnum2<0?"\00304$testnum2":"\00303$testnum2"] \0031,15 ET \003]"
}

the code :

Code: Select all

[expr $testnum<0?"\00304$testnum":"\00303$testnum"]

In this line check of the $testnum is lower then 0 or not, when it is, he write in red, (-123) and else he write in green (+123)

I hope you have someting on this

Well, if you want to insert spaces, all you have to do is add them to the "string map" command.

string map [list + "\0030,3 +" - "\0030,4 -" ] $num

and in the putserv, add a space before the new \003.

that works great - cheers stdragon!
