öäå in tcl with 1.7

How is the work going on fixing so ö ä å works in tcl-scripts on eggdrop 1.7?

I am thinking of makeing my script to a C module but i don't know if it is worth it.

The work is going well, in theory.

Tcl will no longer be a internal part of eggdrop, and won't be needed to even compile it.

As such, handling should be pretty simple.

However, the structure of the modules system is open to major changes at all times, so coding for it at thsi time would be pointless.

1.7 Is not even Alpha quality yet.

Ok, that is great to know.

Then i will just wait and put that script on ice for a while.

THANKS!! (This is also for your other replys that i never thanked you for

)

What problems are you having? 1.6 works pretty well with those chars.

When you use this in the script yes, but i download a webpage with those chars in and then ä becomes "ä".

and if you do a search here on this forum you will find more who have the same problem.
It had something to do with TCL and UTF-8.

If you're downloading webpages with tcl, such as with the http.tcl package, the version of eggdrop you use will make no difference. If you want, you can post the code you're having trouble with and maybe someone can see what's wrong with it.

I can't find the post i was reading about this problem.

I added this code before i printed the data to the chan and then it worked...

Code: Select all

regsub -all -nocase -- "ä" $html "ä" html
regsub -all -nocase -- "ö" $html "ö" html
regsub -all -nocase -- "å" $html "å" html

And when i think one more time this codes are html codes.... I will go and sit in the corner.
