can i load a TCL from a process?

[topdawg_b]

i have a whole set of triggers that i want to turn off and on from time to time. is there a way to load and unload a tcl from the party line or from a process?

There are some rudimentary attempts to build script-APIs to allow dynamic loading and unloading, although I cannot comment on the usability of these scripts.

Depending on the number of triggers/commands, I'd suggest simply using globalspace variables to specify the operation of the different triggers/commands.

Ie, something like this:

Code: Select all

set EnableMytrigger 1
...
bind dcc - "enabletrigger" DccEnableMytrigger
proc DccEnableMytrigger {hand idx text} {
 set ::EnableMytrigger 1
}
bind dcc - "disabletrigger" DccDisableMytrigger
proc DccDisableMytrigger {hand idx text} {
 set ::EnableMytrigger 0
}

bind pub - "trigger" PubMytrigger
proc PubMyTrigger {nick host hand chan text} {
 if {![info exists ::EnableMytrigger] || $::EnableMytrigger != 1} {
  return 0
 }
#rest of script here
}

I use a pre-rehash script, which unbinds all non-default binds upon rehash. So if you remove your script from the config file, it wont be reloaded.
