newbie question

[martpen69]

im trying to make a very simple script that when you type !rules it will display rules in channel. and when you type !faq it will display faq in channel. I started looking at the text being stored in seperate files but gave up cause im very new to this but trying :). So now im trying to include all the commands and all the text in 1 tcl file. I downloaded rules.tcl and tried to modifiy it with 2 binds. Then i tried running 2 rules.tcl along side each other with 2 different binds in each. I will get there but could use some help please.:)

Code: Select all

set faqs {
 "faq1"
 "faq2"
 "faq3"
}

set rules {
 "rule1"
 "rule2"
 "rule3"
}

bind pubm - !* rule:faq

proc rule:faq {nick uhost hand chan arg} {
 global rules faqs
 switch -- [lindex [split $arg] 0] {
  "!rules" {
   foreach rule $rules {
    puthelp "PRIVMSG $chan :$rule"
   }
  }
  "!faq" {
   foreach faq $faqs {
    puthelp "PRIVMSG $chan :$faq"
   }
  }
 }
}

Thank you for your quick reply.

To add more i would do this

set faqs {
"faq1"
"faq2"
"faq3"
}

set rules {
"rule1"
"rule2"
"rule3"
}
set next {
"next1"
"next2"
"next3"
}

bind pubm - !* rule:faq:next

proc rule:faq:next {nick uhost hand chan arg} {
global rules faqs next
switch -- [lindex [split $arg] 0] {
"!rules" {
foreach rule $rules {
puthelp "PRIVMSG $chan :$rule"
}
}
"!faq" {
foreach faq $faqs {
puthelp "PRIVMSG $chan :$faq"
}
}
"!next" {
foreach next $next {
puthelp "PRIVMSG $chan :$next"
}
}
}
}

and just carry on like this. I plan to have about 5 or 6 in total

[Sir_Fz]

Yeah that should work fine, but try not to use "next" twice

Code: Select all

foreach next $next { 
puthelp "PRIVMSG $chan :$next"

I just copied and pasted your code into help.tcl and loaded it in the scripts sections and added the line in the config and restarted the bot just to see what it should do before i messed with it and i cant get it to work. Sorry i did say i was a newbie and i bet its something realy silly .

Any clues

Thanks

And sorry for being a pain

i cant get it to work

... really says nothing

Post any error(s) that were generated.

[martpen69]

Well I did everything like any other script there are no errors that come up. The bot is set to die on any errors its starts fine i even put a putlog line at the end just to see if it loaded and was reading the file. I go onto the channel where my egg is and perform the !faq command and nothing happens.

change bind mask to "% !*"

[martpen69]

Thanks,

I tried that so i now have

bind pubm - %!* rule:faq

But still the same thing no errors and no response.

[greenbear]

demond said "% !*" not %!*

[martpen69]

woohoo :P

Thank you very much.

For the patience and the help.
