Swedish characters

[ViU]

I have a simple script:

Code: Select all

bind pub - !kaffe kaffe

proc kaffe {nick host hand chan text} {
if {$text == "mjölk"} {
               putserv "PRIVMSG $chan :\001ACTION hämtar en kopp kaffe med mjölk åt $nick"
  }
}

It works if I try to match it against something without scandinavian characters. But if I try to match it against scandinavian it doesent react, I'd guess that its because somewhere the scandinavian characters in $test gets translated into some code, and thats why it wont match.

Anybody have any idea on how to solve this?

i think you need to split text firsts but i'm not shure just try it

Code: Select all

bind pub - !kaffe kaffe 

proc kaffe {nick host hand chan text} { 
set stext [split $text]
if {$stext == "mjölk"} { 
               putserv "PRIVMSG $chan :\001ACTION hämtar en kopp kaffe med mjölk åt $nick" 
  } 
}

Noticed something that might need fixing.

Code: Select all

putserv "PRIVMSG $chan :\001ACTION hämtar en kopp kaffe med mjölk åt $nick\001" 

Shell character settings affect how the bot "sees" and displays special characters.

Take a look at this post.

*ASCII Codes*

You might need to convert them into hexadecimals first and then try to match them.

Plus, try using 'string match', or 'string equal' that is more appropriate than using the '==' comparator.

Something like this should do it:

Code: Select all

if {([string equal "mjölk" $text])} {

or

if {([string equal "mj\xF6lk" $text])} {

if Alchera's fix didnt work, try using 'encoding'

Code: Select all

set bleh [encoding convertfrom identity $bleh]

... you get the idea..
