Massively re-wrote date.tcl and uploaded to the archives, as well as here:
http://members.dandy.net/~fbn/date.2.tcl.txt

Added some new functions, added sanity checks and input limits, etc. Much improved (IMNSHO :)

Another minor fix.

## 28/4/06 - Small fix in birthday 'additional channels' cleanup code, to add $bdchan *after* removing chans over $maxbdchans.

Just another update.

## 17/5/06 - Fixed a problem with the Month setting in proc timedate again* - Would be nice if the documentation actually had the *correct* info - According to tcl-commands.doc "minute, hour, day, month have a zero padding so they are exactly two characters long" - This is *wrong* Month is actually 0-11 for JAN-DEC.

Same location as above

tcl-commands.doc was written in 2004 and a tad dated. Laughing

Development of eggdrop has fallen onto the shoulders of basically one person; it's time consuming and very easy to miss updating the odd file or to have typos in files that forever remain undetected.

Maybe you should post a suggestion on the eggheads site? Smile

Fixed a few more bugs, version is now at 209r. Same url as above. If no problems are reported in a few days, I'll upload a new version to the egghelp archives.

10/5/06 - Fixed birthday calc problem noted by "H.Vlijm" where next year bdays were not calculating right.
- Fixed 'expr $evday + 1' - when a day-of-month has a leading zero, expr treats it like an octal, duh.

Hi.

Is it possible to make a "search" for the next bday in the channel? Like .date next and then it will list the next person/persons that has a bday recorded in the database

Just .date listbdays for now, but I'll add your idea to the suggestions/todo list and might work on the script sometime this week. No promises tho.

Hi,

i have a little problem with this script.
people with birthday on APR 30, doesnt show up in the channel.

I get an error in the partyline:

Tcl error [pub_date]: unable to convert date-time string "APR 31, 2008 00:00"

someone got a fix ? My knowledge about TCL is almost zero.

.set errorInfo debug output would be much more helpful. As I don't have a test platform at the moment, I can't run a quick check to duplicate the problem locally.
