channel relaying (especially across networks)

[darwin]

I tried most the channel relay scripts, and most did not work for me or would not work the way I wanted. For example, CrazyCat's chanrelay apparently will not let bots on different networks have the same name, though it is reasonable to assume someone might want them named the same if the channels are named the same. Apparently his script requires netbots, but does not document that. I got one perhaps newer script almost working that automatically did whatever netbots does: it allowed the bots to talk on the party line, but then transmitted nothing in the channels. I think this was clink, because I would type '!addclink,' IIRC. I liked that one better because the bots could be named the same.

Does anyone know why clink (if that is the one I am thinking of) would transmit on the party line but not the channels, and why chanrelay would transmit one way but not the other? I had a friend help me set up netbots, and change things to try to get chanrelay work. Currently I have transmit and receive set to "y" for both bots, but it is not working. Currently I have my chanrelay configuration like the following, but I would prefer to use clink.

Code: Select all

    set regg(yoga) {
        "chan"          "#yoga"
        "network"       "EFNet"
        "snet"          "y"
        "highlight"     0
        "transmit"      "y"
        "receive"       "y"
    }
    
    set regg(om) {
        "chan"          "#yoga"
        "network"       "UnderNet"
        "snet"          "y"
        "highlight"     0
        "transmit"      "y"
        "receive"       "y"
    }

Is there a best script to relay channels across networks? I might want to link three channels all together eventually.

Also, I noticed there is no channel relay script to simply relay two channels on the same network. DoctorD90 on Freenode #egghelp wrote me one a few weeks/months ago but has not uploaded it.
