There are types of messages on IRC.

NOTICE and PRIVMSG

NOTICE is defined as a message that can be sent to a channel or a single nickname, and should not be replied too.

PRIVMSG is the normal message, which can be sent to a channel or a single nickname.

You state you want a message to be sent to a user that joins the channel, but it should not be sent to the user in a private message. You also state it should only be seen by the joining user, and not the rest of the channel.

These two requirments are contridictory, and are just not possible.

Some IRC clients will display a NOTICE, sent to a nickname, in all channel windows that the sender and recipient are in. Some will display the message in the currently active window. Some will display it in a seperate window.

Such, it is client dependant. This is not accounting for scripts, which could do somthing different alltogether.

if u know the Q or L on quakenet... They say notice msg to people who join.. on chanel...but this see only who joinet...how do i set this on my eggdrop?

A notice, no problem

Code: Select all

bind join - "*" join:notice
proc join:notice {nick uh hand chan} {
  putserv "NOTICE $nick :PUT YOUR MESSAGE HERE"
}

However, my previous post still applies.

When Q or L sends you a NOTICE, it displays it in the channel window. This is an effect of your IRC client, not the server, Q, L or the notice command.

It could be a script, or the client displaying it in that window.

in other words, do not trust this script to do what you want.
