chan == #channel

[hikaro]

hello i got code on mIRC script
if ($chan == #channel) { halt }
how if i want to do in tcl?

[Ofloo]

Code: Select all

set urchan "#channel"

if {[string match -nocase $urchan $chan]} {
  #your code here
  # return 1 would be the same as halt
  return 1
}

i suppose this is on join check eggdrop doc for bind join

$chan is the proc variable so u can call that anything u want thats the string your comparing to

-nocase cause string match is case sensitive

Dude, why would you use string match? String equal is fine in this case. Hikaro:

Code: Select all

if {[string equal -nocase $chan "#channel"]} {return 0}

Sorry :p to me its the same thing i know, its not entirly true but both comes down to the same thing

so is string match so what is ur point

[caesar]

Actualy the match and equal are two different things. According to The Manual the match = "See if pattern matches string." and equal = "Perform a character-by-character comparison of strings string1 and string2"

You can either open a door with a key, or drive into it with your car. Comes down to the same thing, but why not use the best way (key )?

lol , your right and i allready sad that it is more correct to use ur string but the difference between using a key or a car and string match or string equal is a bit overboard lol

its more like using the right key and the wrong key but they both open the loc so whats teh difference if you use the wrong key if it still opens the loc :p

The wrong key might damage the lock! ;P

Code: Select all

set chan {#b[la]h}; string match $chan $chan;# no match.
