log own messages

[Driber]

I'm trying to write a tcl script that, besides sending text to a channel, also logs that same text to the channel's logfile

I just need a simple code, something like:

putserv "PRIVMSG #mychan :hello"
putlog #mychan "hello"

can someone post the correct syntax for the putlog (or putcmdlog or putxferlog or putloglev, whichever works best) command for the example above

[nml375]

putlog <message>

In your case, something like this:

Code: Select all

puthelp "PRIVMSG #mychan :hello"
putlog "#mychan \"hello\""

That is, you must make sure the message is a single argument, regardless whether it contains spaces or not. To have greater control of where things are logged, use the putloglev command; putloglev <level> <channel> <text>:

Code: Select all

puthelp "PRIVMSG #mychan :hello"
putloglev p "#mychan" "<mybot> hello"
#log the message "<mybot> hello" as public chatter (p) on channel #mychan

Code: Select all

putloglev p "#mychan" "<mybot> hello" 

thanks, nml375, that works perfect
