Hey there, I was trying to write a TCL script for my bot to kick on any of the listed commands being entered by anyone in any of the two channels I was trying to set it up in. This is what I have for a script, and when I tested it, the bot doesn't do anything in response.

Try:

@Azeem:
Unfortunately, that code is flawed, as you are using list commands on strings. What makes matters worse is that you use them on unchecked strings supplied by random users. Should any user in your channel write something containing characters such as (but not limited to) "{[]}", that code will start behaving very badly. Also, lsearch would generally be faster than iterating through the whole list of "badwords", especially if you keep it sorted.

@Tosser^^:
Nice code, you should however use something like this when building the channel and badwords lists:

@mcdarby:
Nope, if it was'nt clear enough; this is what I intended:

Okay, I just tested Tosser's script, where I have this

Use:

Why would you use " " around [list]?

You need to start writing cleaner code tosser.

@Azeem:
If you're referring to the use of list-commands; Make sure it's a list and not a string. If nessecary, convert the string to a list.
You'll probably want to read up on these commands:
list, split, join, lappend, lindex, lrange (and a few other list-commands)
