Bot should display something in 2 lines

[darton]

Hello!
I have installed some scripts for my bot. But how is it possible that the bot does not display everything in one line but in two or three or anything like that.
Here an example:

(15:46:25) (@Darton) !hello
(15:46:29) (@Bot) The Bot says hello to Darton.
(15:46:30) (@Bot) What's up?
(15:46:31) (@Bot) How did you sleep?
...

How is it possible to make a line break?

Edit the script you're using.

[darton]

Nice help. But what do I have to change? Look at this script:

Code: Select all

bind pub - !aeg aeg
proc aeg {nick host hand chan rest} {
   puthelp "privmsg $chan :aaaaaaaaaaeeeeeeeeggggggggg"
}

What do I have to change that it is displayed like this:

(@Darton) !aeg
(@Bot) aaaaaaaaaa
(@Bot) eeeeeeee
(@Bot) ggggggggg

Nice help.

That's the nice help you get when you provide "nice" information about your problem.

Eggdrop does not split the text. My only explanation for what's happening with your bot is that the network it's on might be splitting the text or you have some proc that's overriding the original eggdrop puthelp queue (do you?).

[darton]

Neither the network it's on might be splitting nor I have some procs that overrides the original puthelp queue as far as I know.
So it is not possible to make a line break?

[Sir_Fz]

Wait a minute, I maybe got you wrong. You want it to display

(@Bot) aaaaaaaaaa
(@Bot) eeeeeeee
(@Bot) ggggggggg

instead of

(@Bot) aaaaaaaaaaeeeeeeeeggggggggg

?

Then add several puthelp lines to do so, it's as simple as that. or you can use a foreach loop, for example:

Code: Select all

set text {"aaaaaaaaaa" "eeeeeeee" "ggggggggg"}
foreach word $text {
 puthelp "privmsg $chan :$word"
}

[darton]

You are right Sir_Fz. Thank you very much. There is a little delay but I think this the delay is unrecoverable.

You can use a faster queue (i.e. putserv or putquick) instead of puthelp.
