Pingmeter by arfer/nml375 colour lag meter not work

[juanamores]

The script works correctly, the only thing that does not show up well is the colour lag meter.
There seems to be a problem with the charset.

 @juanam ¦ .ping Peter
@myBoT ¦ Compliance (juanam) ▌▌▌▌▌▌▌▌▌▌ 0.152 seconds from Peter

Code: Select all

# pingmeter.tcl by arfer/nml375
# requires Tcl 8.4 or later
# requires channel to permit embelished text (colour) output
# requires utf-8 compliant IRC client
# each #channelname the script is to function in requires (in the partyline) .chanset #channelname +ping

# note that this script will probably not respond if any other client based script responds to the same command
# configure the command trigger accordingly

# assuming default trigger "." (period) syntax would be .ping ?target?
# replaces 10 green bars with 1 red bar per each 0.5 seconds (rounded) lag

##### CHANGELOG #############

# 1.0 07/03/09 beta
# 1.1 08/03/09 changed abs() math to modulus math to interpret integer wraparound

##### INSTALLATION ##########

# 1. configure pingmeter.tcl in a suitable text editor
# 2. upload configured pingmeter.tcl to bot's scripts subdirectory
# 3. add a line to bots .conf file 'source scripts/pingmeter.tcl'
# 4. restart the bot
# 5. requires '.chanset #channelname +ping' in the partyline to function in #channelname

Hi,
The output of this script is designed to use UTF-8, and displays a character known as "Left half block".
You can rather easily change the character shown (and go for a plain ascii-character) by editing this line (found in pPingCtcrReceive):

Code: Select all

set char [encoding convertto utf-8 \u258C]

To show a full block, try something like this:

Code: Select all

set char "\219"

[juanamores]

Okay, I already did the modification.


A solid triangle pointing to the left and the number 9 are now shown.
ASCII characters do not have the same number in mIRC.
I have tried several ASCII numbers, but I can not seem to show the solid block.

[nml375]

Well, this seems to be yet another issue with character sets and encodings... You'll find quite a few of them in the forum.

You could try something as simple as this, I suppose:

Code: Select all

set char "\u258C"

But then again, that might produce an entirely different output in mIRC as opposed to the terminals/consoles I use...

[juanamores]

Exact.
Is that in mIRC is very different from the list of ASCII characters that apply to Windows.
I have tried with the ALT + number key, and it gives different results in mIRC than in Words (Office).

In short, it is something graphical, that in no way affects the operation of your TCL.
Thanks for everything.

[juanamores]

nml375, The solution for mIRC is as follows:
I put the code in an image because there are characters (ETX and SI) that can not be seen well in this forum



The ETX code you see in the image is obtained by pressing the Control (Ctrl) key + K key in the mIRC client window.
And, the SI code, with Control key (Ctrl) + O key

Result:
