Bind to newuser, chattr, etc for a botnet linked bot

[trevelyn]

Is there a specific bind i can use so that bots on a botnet can take specific action when the master bot adduser, chattr?

I can see the userfile changes logged in the console, but is there a bind for these changes?

TIA

Short answer no.

Longer answer, you can make guesses when the userfile is complete, and take action then.

EG, use a link bind, and detect if the bot is a share bot. Then use timers to work out when the value of the global variable "getting-users" (documented in tcl-commands.doc) is changed to 0. When it is set to 0, this usualy means that the userfile is complete, or the bot got delinked, you should check this, then take your action acordignly.

You should be able to use 'trace' to detect when a variable changes instead of using timers to figure it out

guppy I don't think we call Tcl_UpdateLinkedVar anywhere in the code, so traces shouldn't work on eggdrop variables.

Well [censored] ... lets get fixing that

If we make them binds, then they will work even in languages without a trace command (1.7).

I've always wanted to have a bind for chattr, and the proc could approve/deny the bind. Same with chanset, new hosts, user/channel creation/deletion, etc.

That would be *great*

Thanks for eggdrop, it's a godsend
