Bind on snotices?

Is there any way to possibly bind on a server notice?

Use the RAW bind to capture any message that isn't covered by the current set of binds.

So, say I'd want to bind on all snotices which contain the phrase "the virtual hostname", I'd use bind raw *|* - "*the virtual hostname*" my_proc ? (I haven't used masks before

)

yes the bind is correct, masks are really easy..
* = anything (even blank space)
? = single character
[char] = any charcter in the given range
\c = "escapes" a single charcter (usefull if macthing against close-brackets

The mask for RAW is a single command.

This could be NOTICE, PRIVMSG, PING or any other of the countless RAW commands.

You have to parse the incoming message inside the procedure, and work out if it is the message you want, not in the BIND.

Note, make sure you allways force a "return 0" with the RAW bind, as it can catch you off guard and make your bot unusable.
