Hi there

Am just trying to re-set up my bot crontabs to not send emails but not having much luck.

Am currently using:
./autobotchk mybot.conf -noemail -5

Hi there Am using a script to pull headlines from an RSS feed & just wondering if there's a way to detect special characters in a string to set up an ignore? One of the offending characters is: ⚠️ Have tried: if {[string match *⚠️* $var]} { and: if {[string match *\⚠️* $var]} { ...but no luck. A...

Hi there I was using the v.gd or and/or is.gd url shorteners via a tcl script when sending news items to my channel...but I haven't been able to return any urls from those sites any for some time despite nothing appeared to have changed with the site... Just wondering if anyone had any experience us...

Thanks...will send them a message.

ps not sure if it helps but the script I use for tinyurl is:

Code: Select all

set query [::http::geturl http://tinyurl.com/api-create.php?url=$someurl]
	set url [lindex [split [::http::data $query] \n] 0]

...and it seems to work without the https even though tinyurl is also an https site?

added to top of script:

package require http
package require tls

but bot quit with this error when rehashed:

Tcl error in file 'i.conf':
can't find package tls
while executing
"package require tls"

Thanks for this - looks like perhaps my shell provider dosn't have the needed items as it's still returning an empty url...
Thanks anyway.

Thanks & apologies for the spectacularly slow reply:

Code: Select all

set query [::http::geturl http://v.gd/create.php?url=$somelongurltoshorten&format=simple]
set url [lindex [split [::http::data $query] \n] 0]
putserv "PRIVMSG $channel :$url"

Thanks again!
