Hi,

Has anyone used CHATstats 3.1.2 in the new versions of eggdrop.

When I try to do an .update, it says:

Tcl error [cs:update]: no value given for parameter "what" to "topic"

I have no clue what to do?!

any help appreciated.

Seems like he's fallen off the earth. the homepage does not even exist anymore.

The script is still floating around though, so I thought someone would know something...

It's kinda long, but if you have the time to test it somewhere or to look at the source you can get it here:

chanstats.tcl by Ernst uses a procedure called [topic] which comes from the days when this command wasn't implemented in eggdrop. Back then Ernst used a different amount of arguments passed to the procedure than is being used by the "regular" command nowadays. Each script, among which CHATstats, making a call to this command will inevitably create the above mentioned error. You have three choices:

1. uninstall CHATstats
2. uninstall chanstats
3. rename chanstats's procedure "topic" and all calls to it to something else.
