Listing all the channels the bot is on

[z_one]

How can I return a list of all the channels the bot is on (not only those that are defined in the config. file but all the chans the bot is on) ?

The command "channels" returns the list of the channels the bot is monitoring (or trying to). Meaning channels that are defined in the bot's configuration file only.

If I make the bot join a channel by using .+chan <chan_name> then that channel will not be included in the list returned by the command "channels" and so I am getting an error in my script.

You can view the channels by using .status.
If you mean a Tcl command, 'channels' is the correct command, you just need to do a botonchan check to see if the bot is actually on the channel.

yah, something like

proc onchannels {} {
set onchans ""
foreach i [channels] {
if {[botison $i]} {lappend onchans $i}
}
return $onchans
}

the this will make the command 'onchannels' return a list in the same format as 'channels'

another way would be to ask the server what channels you're on (ie, send a WHOIS $botnick and capture the reply)
