hypo · Post by **hypo** » Sun Jun 02, 2002 1:06 am

Hi,

i am searching for a TCL script that would take news headlines from http://www.mtv.com/news/ and paste them into a channel, like does the cnn.com tcl script .
But i can't find a script like this anywhere ..

Someone knows about it ?

Thx for you answers

The script is Klip Irc News.
With this script you can have more than 3000 sources of news (in all languages) !
This script use Klip file and/or services list (in xml, opml and rss file format).

There is in the .tar.gz file one XML Service List with 1900 news sites.

There is the site MTV in the xml and now there is a cmd !mtv to see the news of MTV

You can download it here :

hi Ycarus,
thx a lot for your help.
i installed the script, i put the ftp.tcl, servicelist.xml, http.tcl, and klipircnews.tcl in my script directory of my eggdrop. And then i changed my .conf file to add the source /scripts... for those scripts.
but when i run my eggdrop, it tells me :

[05:48] Tcl error in file '*****.conf':
[05:48]: command not found
bash-2.05$
[05:48] can't find package ftp while executing
>"package require ftp"
>(file "scripts/klipircnews.tcl" line 201)
>invoked from within
>"source scripts/klipircnews.tcl"
>(file "*****.conf" line 183)
> [05:48] * CONFIG FILE NOT LOADED (NOT FOUND, OR ERROR)

Can you help me one more time ? cause i dont know what's going on

thx.

Make sure you place the line

source scripts/klipircnews.tcl

after all the other scripts, this should fix the problem.

If not, then the ftp.tcl file has been edited, and requires the following line of code.

Code: Select all

package provide ftp

Place that before the line

source scripts/klipircnews.tcl

and it should solve the problem.

Yet, this is only if the ftp.tcl you have downloaded, is the correct one for this script.

ppslim is right. You have to put "source scripts/http.tcl" and "source scripts/ftp.tcl" before "source scripts/klipircnews.tcl".

The correct ftp.tcl is in the klipircnews.tar.gz package. But all "ftp.tcl" from the tcllib 1.x distribution should work very well.

You shouldn't put the .xml file in your. conf file

The .xml is only a list of news channel , not a script. You only have to put the .tcl in the .conf file.

yea when i try that it says servicelist.xml cant be found or something like that..
so im not sure where to put it..

Ycarus · Post by **Ycarus** » Tue Jun 18, 2002 1:40 pm

you can put here where you want, you just have to change the path in the .tcl file.
If you change nothing, you can put the .xml in the same directory as the eggdrop binary.
