in the first command you did forget to include a mode to set
No. You can use MODE command w/o any parameters after nick to see current mode settings for user or channel. Try it in your IRC client by any of 2 ways:
a) /mode <your_nick>
b) /quote <your_nick>
You'll get a response from server. My bot doesn't get this response. That's why I'm asking. Thanks for reply anyway.
# Comment these two lines if you wish to enable the .tcl and .set commands.
# If you select your owners wisely, you should be okay enabling these.
#unbind dcc n tcl *dcc:tcl
#unbind dcc n set *dcc:set
and .rehashed and .restarted killed and started again the bot but it still doesnt work.. it tells me "What? Need help?"
you want .console +r also need to have a "set raw-log 1" in your eggdrop.conf
Damn! Correct I just forgot that server replies on user's requests in raw format.
Thank you very much rolandguy!
(and a little remark: the parameter is "use-console-r" rather than "raw-log" - in eggdrop 1.6.10 at least.
I think what he means is, he wants to check the bots MODE using putserv "MODE botnick". here's where your problem is Rept-Tile

The question was: "Am I using .tcl command syntax correctly?"
Don't judge me hardly, I had became a VBP last years and just returning to IRC issues time by time.
Good luck!
some of the many nuances of eggs really are a bit obtuse for newbies to be able to follow, and the ones I know are common and not FAQ'd I like to help with (esp ones that I have run across and spent too much time figuring out for myself).
for example...to this day, I cannot get my bot to see wallops. yes, it's +w and opered, but it doesn't even log walls in raw *chuckle*
