Local date/time

[[Nero]]

Hi Again
I have an old script that uses ...

set LOCALDATE [date]
set LOCALTIME [time]
set curdate [datetime]

These dont seem to work, is there other commands now that do the same job ??

Thanx

Code: Select all

#returns 29.04.03 
set LOCALDATE [clock format [clock seconds] -format "%d.%m.%y"]
#returns 14.12.34
set LOCALTIME [clock format [clock seconds] -format "%T"]

take a look at the clock command in the tcl-manual if you want a different output

These commands used to be provided in eggdrop, but are no longer (except datetime, which never existed).

They can still be used, so long as compat.tcl is loaded.
