strange putserv question

[Jagg]

Hi,

I have five variables I want to output in one line (each variable consists of one number). But when I do

Code: Select all

 putserv "PRIVMSG $chan :O: $today_open H: $today_high L: $today_low C: $today_close Change: $today_change"

I get this output in the irc-chan:

<MyEggdrop>O: 1461.50

That's all

When I do

Code: Select all

  putserv "PRIVMSG $chan :Open: $today_open"
  putserv "PRIVMSG $chan :High: $today_high"
  putserv "PRIVMSG $chan :Low: $today_low"
  putserv "PRIVMSG $chan :Close: $today_close"
  putserv "PRIVMSG $chan :Change: $today_change" 

I get each variable/number correct in the irc chan (but every number in a new line and I want it in one line).

Thanks

Have you double-checked that there is no newlines at the end of any of those variables?

ahh, there are \n in the source file so that could be the reason. How can I get rid of these \n?

(info: really backslash and n in the code, not meant as physical newlines)

Remove the \n from the sourcefile?
You could also use something like this if you really need the newlines within the variable contents:

Code: Select all

puthelp "PRIVMSG $chan :O: [string trim $today_high "\n"] L: [string trim $today_low "\n"]....."
