!isin "[strftime %A]" [strftime %A]

whats that supposed to mean? its total nonesense for a boolan expression

[drfox]

well i didnt write the script im still learning all new to me
guess thats why it dont work any ideas on how to make it work

[De Kus]

contact the author, I have no clue what it is supposed to do, the only thing I could do would be removing it, but that would most likely change the intented behavior of that script.

ok do you know off another one that spills a random line of text from a text file at a given time span say every 2-5 mins
