I hope to start work on a public FAQ, helping to solve basic and common problems.

I had planned to do this some time ago, and base most of it on questions asked on the previous forum, but due to it's sad death (kept losing posts, like a drunk losing a chunk of his liver (what liver)), all posts where lost, thus rendering this effort usless.

If you can think of questions, and answers for them, please post them here, I would be happy to inlude them.

Thanks.

How about a section on using list commands properly? The question could be something like, "why can't tcl handle { } [ ] in nicks or message?" because that's usually where it comes up.

Another thing could be about how to use utimer and eval properly. "Why is tcl so insecure that it executes commands when I don't want it to?" or something.

ppslim,

If I could get a web server account with the required tools, I should be able resurrect the old forum in a static form (no posting). This would allow yourself and others to search through it.

I'll try it out on an account I have tommorow.
