bot answer in private

Yoda · Post by **Yoda** » Thu Oct 24, 2002 1:07 pm

I use a script that get the bot answer to question in public chat, this is a standard bind pubm script

how to do a script that get the bot answer in the same way but in a private window? user ask something to the bot in private window and the bot answer in the same private window.

someone knows that?

Well, instead of doing something along this line:

Code: Select all

putserv "PRIVMSG $chan :$Text_to_send"

Do something like

Code: Select all

putserv "PRIVMSG $nick :$Text_to_send"

thanks,

I know this, and result in a notice to the nick. My question was another how get a user ask something to the bot in a private window with the bot and it answer in the same private window.

When the user asks the bot somthing in a private window, you us ethe MSG and MSGM binds to capture it.

As for send replies to this private window, the yes, you should be useing

Code: Select all

puthelp "PRIVMSG $nick :test here"

If this isn't sent tot he private window, then, it is a result of the client being setup incorectly, and not eggdrop.

thanks!
I'm not so confident with tcl. Could you give me the script to use?

Instead of using "bind pubm", do "bind msgm".

tried but dont work, do you know the rest of the script?

no, because I don't know what your script is...

this is the public message script, and work fine. I'm trying to do the same but only in private window, question and answer

bind pubm - "*nick*" pub:nick

proc pub:nick { nick uhost handle chan arg } {
putserv "PRIVMSG $chan :message" }

This SHOULD work...

Code: Select all

bind msgm - "*nick*" pub:nick

proc pub:nick { nick uhost handle arg } {
  putserv "PRIVMSG $nick :message" 
}

yust tried, dont work

you get an error?

Course - I'm not sure that you can have a proc nick as well as a var named nick as well... try changing it.

Yoda · Post by **Yoda** » Thu Oct 24, 2002 4:16 pm

no, simply dont work, nothing happen

Kingster · Post by **Kingster** » Thu Oct 24, 2002 4:19 pm

Try this....

Code: Select all

 bind msgm -|- "*nick*" pub:respond_to_nick 

proc pub:respond_to_nick { nick uhost handle arg } { 
  putserv "PRIVMSG $nick :message" 
}

If that doesn't work, try msg instead of msgm.... I can never remember waht the diff is...
