Another N00b Question From Me

[Daniel_gr]

heres another on text question for you

 

heres the sentence

<+FFBot> [New Shit] blah blah blah

 

the [New Shit] part is the only constant

i tried isin , i tried iswm.

either im doing something wrong or the [ is throwing me off

i just want a trigger to activate on the new shit part so i can echo it to another window

 

edit: the full format is in the form of [New Shit] name [description] @ link

i asume i have to learn regex to get the seperate parts of the sentence so i can store am in a dbase or hash table i asume??

did you try with $chr(91) and $chr(93) ?

[Daniel_gr]

i tried that, but i think im doing something wrong

i kept getting this error : * /if: insufficient parameters

so i gave up for now till i have more time. or a better suggestion

[Ozzy10]

you need to use the $chr for [ and ]

 

if ($chr(91) $+ * $+ $chr(93) iswm $1-)

 

 

etc

[Guest X-Fusion]

you need to use the $chr for [ and ]

 

if ($chr(91) $+ * $+ $chr(93) iswm $1-)

 

 

etc

I think Ozzy is poised for a mIRC comeback!

[Daniel_gr]

i certainly hope so, i can use an insomniac that i can bug often

 

 

ill try the code later, as im off for food etc now

[Orus]

why don't you post your code ?

 

[Daniel_gr]

im going to feel real stupid i bet.

 

my code :

on *:text:*:* {
if ($chr(91) $+ * $+ $chr(93) iswm $1-)
echo @info $1-
}

 

the error:

* /if: insufficient parameters (line 2, script2.mrc)

 

im probably doing something reall easy, wrong

 

[Guest Travis]

you need to put the echo on the same line.

 

If you actually enclosed your commands in brackets this would have been pretty apparent.

 

You were also missing the last colon in the on event.

 

if (this matches) { do this }

 

on *:text:*:*:{
if ($+($chr(91),*,$chr(93),*) iswm $1-) { echo @info $1- }
}

told you guys i was gona feel real stupid

ok. so im not really well at the moment and cant really concentrate..

 

thanks all you guys, it works now

 

now off to learn regex to catch the specific parts of that line

 

edit: i had a friend say those lines for testing purpose. and it worked fine.

however when the bot finally came with a line it didnt work.

is it possible that the color makes it not work?? the bot uses red text for the "[New Shit] part, and other colors for the other parts
