setting tcl variable from partyline

I was hoping to be able to set a tcl variable from the partyline.

I thought the syntax would be:

.tcl set var_name value

or

.set var_name value

But they both ask me if I want help

What am I doing wrong?

Thanx

WAG: you didn't read/understand the eggdrop configuration file... locate the part in your conf file mentioning:

"a security risk!!"

OK it still doesn't work.

here is the config

# 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

I have tried this commented out and not commented out, regardless it will not let me execute a tcl command (.tcl) from the partyline.

My flags are at least +mn.

I think there might be something fundamental here.

Thanx
