syntax error in expression

[Keen]

hello i try to if then else syntax aber i see this error on ctcp chat windows with my bot.

Tcl error [opekle]: syntax error in expression "$ahmet!=Jesus": variable references require preceding $


tcl codes are:


set wnick "Jesus"

bind pub - !opekle opekle
proc opekle {nick host hand chan text} {
global ahmet
set wnick [lindex $text 0]
if {$wnick!=Jesus} {
putserv "privmsg $chan :You are not Jesus."
}
else {
putserv "privmsg $chan :You are Jesus."
}
}


what is the problem? what is wrong please help me thanx

Code: Select all

if {$wnick!="Jesus"} {

Try using quotes around a literal expression perhaps? Your next error will be invalid command name: else because for some reason you close the if clause and put the else on the next line... Don't complain it's case-sensitive either, you wrote it

thanx a lots it is working


[01:51] <@Jesus> !opekle
[02:01] <@Jesus> !opekle
[02:01] <opLa> You are not Jesus.

[02:03] <@jesus> !opekle
[02:03] <opLa> You are not Jesus.

İt is not case sensitive. and there is no any problem after i use quotes arround literal?

is it okey ?

Thanx

Sorry you are rigt. the second error ist

02:01] <opLa> [18:01] Tcl error [opekle]: invalid command name "else"
[02:03] <opLa> [18:03] Tcl error [opekle]: invalid command name "else"


can you correct the code for me so i can understand what i is wrong?

[speechles]

Code: Select all

bind pub - !opekle opekle

proc opekle {nick host hand chan text} {
   if {[string equal -nocase $nick "jesus"]} {
      putserv "privmsg $chan :You are Jesus."
   } else {
     putserv "privmsg $chan :You are not Jesus."
   }
}

The problem at hand are these lines:

Code: Select all

}
else {

In tcl, there is no command named "else". Instead, it's a parameter for if. What you need to keep in mind here, is that tcl is newline-terminated, with the exception of newlines within a string (enclosed with either "" or {}).

Simply put, the above should be something like this:

Code: Select all

} else {

İ think i understand. an command and its component must be in the same line ?

not
}
else {

Code: Select all

if ..... {

} else { 

}

is there an Editor for progrraming tcl/eggdtop script? that automatically do this for me ?

Correct.

I can't think of any specific IDE that keeps track of newlines like that. There are, however, numerous editors/IDE's out there that do support highlighting of tcl-code, one of my favourites being emacs.
