GameFAQ's got an update, and while not breaking the bot, it did cause USA/JAP/EUR games to get mixed no matter which region you were trying to specify. This has been addressed and now it will work nicely again. Also corrected a minor issue with wikimedia involving intelligent redirecting. This should help it redirect rather than display a wikimedia error. If you want to give it a whirl, you can < here > or at any of the v1.9.6 links mentioned above. Have fun and remember, if you have any issues at all; bugs? missing features? crashes your bot? Remember to mention it here so the issue can be resolved. Enjoy.

Edit: to rosc2112, about the wiki encoding..yeah I've noticed russian likes to mangle itself whenever eggdrop touches it, like say..with this (ru.wiki webpage -> irc screen) taking directly from page. Sometimes this is just string encoding fix, but sometimes it goes horribly wrong and becomes spaghetti. So I've given up now on even thinking about it, til inspiration or a clue hits me how to solve it.

To do search with words accentuated in the youtube doesn't work. Can you fix this problem?

Thanks

That's one of those problems I'm having lately. Haven given such freedom in languages, I've now thrown a giant hurdle in front of myself. While this one isn't so giant, it is never the less a hurdle that I can't really appreciate yet until I factor some things in; a) it's using the same way of extending codes for things using %'s (%c5%ad, etc) as Wikipedia does. b) I'm going to assume this is unicode, which I haven't tried to implement yet..Because of it's obvious flaws (rosc2112 has pointed out above in this thread)... What this means, is the same thing holding up Wikipedia from evolving as I'd like, also keeps me from evolving everything else as well (youtube included ). It isn't that I don't have the time to try fixing it, it's just that in fixing it for language C, I don't want to break it for languages D-G.. ya know? That's quite honestly the most difficult part of this script; the complexity, care, consideration undertaken when working with every language. It's fun sure... but things like this, I need to investigate before I just toss some random code to solve it short time.

If anyone else knows a simpler way to solve these kinds of %5c%ad%ac encodings in urls, and how to translate this back n forth I'd love to see an example... heh

This is brilliant.

If you're still accepting suggestions, I do have a couple.

Is it possible to have two sets of variables for the size of responses? One for public queries, and one for msg/notice queries? I'm hoping to just have !google be a 'feeling lucky' response in main chat, but the more full scale response if privately messaged. I suppose, to go in hand with this, would be the ability to change some of the other variables based on public or private trigger as well (such as page titles, etc).

In a similar vein, is it possible to get the short hand weather only? No links, just the generic whatever that google spits out.

And for a noobish question to follow that up -- all of the responses seem to be in Celsius. I am GUESSING, and this is just a guess, that it is due to my server being located in canada and google responding in kind based on that. Any workaround/suggestion for that? While I do know my Celsius, Fahrenheit would be a little quicker to mentally parse...

Thanks so much for all the work you've done on this -- it really is a great catch-all for lazy irc dwellers.

This is possible indeed. But will require multiple modifications for each proc to add some way to detect double parameters for _results, and modifying all the bind procs that branch to each proc function. Which is too time consuming for me until the weekend gets here.

In a similar vein, is it possible to get the short hand weather only? No links, just the generic whatever that google spits out.

This is as simple as adding a new variable (ie, only_oneresult_answers) to the user config. 'answers' are those times when it would give you time, zipcode, areacode, calculator, weather, etc mixed in with your results. This is an easy one to do.

This can already be done, see below.

<speechles> !g .com.au weather Calgary
<sp33chy> Weather for Calgary, AB, Canada: 22°C, Cloudy, Wind: SE at 6 km/h, Humidity: 29%
<speechles> !g .com weather Calgary
<sp33chy> Weather for Calgary, AB, Canada: 71°F, Cloudy, Wind: SE at 4 mph, Humidity: 29%
<speechles> !g .ca weather Calgary
<sp33chy> Weather for Calgary, AB: 22°C, Cloudy, Wind: SE at 6 km/h, Humidity: 29%

As you can see, the .country.switch you specify matters when it comes to formatiing. The 'default' you give in the config is only for times when .country.switching isn't used, which causes default. When the Canadian server was used (above) and Calgary is in Canada, it even omitted that too from the 'answer'. Above is how I'm guessing you want it, which just the single result 'answer'

Hi since you are basically doing an all in one script here

Would there be a chance to maybe add a sports score to it for the sports

fanatics. nba,mlb,nfl,nhl

just something like !nflscore team1 team2

could use

http://sports.yahoo.com/

Thanks for the nice all in one script

Still nothing for UTF-8 problems for wikipedia ?

Still nothing for UTF-8 problems for wikipedia ?

... If I knew how to solve it, it would've been solved a long time ago (read back in this thread)...

It's not as simple as one would imagine to parse wikipedia and do it gracefully. Everything other than encodings should be fine with wikipedia/wikimedia. The two small minor problems are mentioned below:

Languages with special characters work, but sometimes not with those special characters as part of the input. (ie, the youtube problem mentioned above in this thread)

Languages made entirely of special characters work and display (as ugly wrongly encoded text), but most always will refuse to work with this language as input. (ie, the problem with serbian and wikipedia mentioned above as well)

I believe both can be solved with clever use of encoding and using convertfrom/convertto but I haven't invested much time in it.. yet. One day I shall, promise.

[speechles]

Another small update, just to adapt to the recent changes google made to their website. If you spot any other problems, shout them out here so they can be addressed. If the problem appears to be utf-8 or unicode based, at this time I'm not prepared to tackle those..

Get the update:
here or at any of the v1.96 links above.

Changes:
Google stocks, define, calculator and most other google 'answer' functions work again.
Google's multi language 'no search results found' message functional again, this also corrects 'did you mean' messaging.
Google's Youtube results now accommodates for thumbnail images, and grabs results properly again.
Googles 'answer' now expanded to cover hopefully all it's results.

!local also had a problem with grabbing results properly, seems google added a pair of double-quotes surrounding some html. It's accounted for now, working, and available here or at any v1.96 link above.. enjoy

Hi.

First of all thanks for a nice script!

I have a thing im wondering about.. Is it possible to customize the output of the !triggers in more ways?

Its because i want the output to be as all my other scripts.. Like this;

[ IMDB ] -> Title: bla
[ XE.COM ] -> CURRENCY bla
[ GOOGLE ] -> description @ www.link.com
[ YOUTUBE ] -> description @ www.link.com

etc etc, i think u get the idea. Would be nice if you could add this feature. Colors, bold & underline support also.

I hope you'll consider adding this

Anyone else's weather not working? Everyone has been trying for the past two weeks or so doing the "!g weather 12345" trigger and nothing comes back at all. I am getting this error via DCC:

9:58am (optix) [06:59] Tcl error [incith::google::public_message]: can't read "w5": no such variable

Any ideas? Thanks!!

If you can give better examples this can be accommodated for. I'm not quite 100% sure what you mean ...O_o;;? If you mean your [ CAPTIONS ] displayed before each action, isn't is overly obvious what those links are by where they head without the need to spam in ALLCAPS what it is.. pretty sure this is true. Only google links will lead to a differing link, Youtube will always be a youtube link, always. Also, the script already has support for Colors, Bold, and Underline in main procs. Torrent and a few others use underline + bold in different ways to mean different things. I can't allow the bot to destroy these meanings, so some procs won't let you touch their output. That is intentional.
