I can't use [ and ] in bot's name?

Simply use "\[" instead of a plain "["

you can also just make the botnick with none [] and first get it online and use a botnick.tcl to change the nickname when it's on the irc server. more simple

But that requires user intervention once the bot is online.

If running the bot via a crontab, the bot will be using the wrong nick, until you get online to fix it.

Some snippet from a Tcl manual

Code: Select all

1. Basic Tcl Language Features
[snip]
"hello $a"   quoting with substitution
{hello $a}   quoting with no substitution (deferred substitution)
