Which integrated development environment is best for eggdrop? I tested already all ides and debuggers for tcl. But no ide and no debugger integrates well into eggdrop. To develop/debug on remote shell would be awesome, but for a local installed win/eggdrop it would be fine as well.

None of the debuggers worked for eggdrop related things... Just plain tcl.

Any advice?

Debug? can you give me more information please. I dont know if this is relivant or not but the debug stuff is available from eggdrop its self. This is an example of the .debug command from eggdrop cvs version.

A debugger is a very productive programing tool. After you have code with no syntax errors and maybe some program errors you can walk thought your code. Command for command, you will see how the computer will process.

There are also a lot debuggers for tcl. But all I have tested only work with pure tcl (tclsh). If tcl is embedded as script language in some program (like eggdrop) I don`t know a way to debug. Thats why I posted here.

I see. Thank You. I really dont think something like this has been developed, the best thing i could recommend is if you want to test these debugers for eggdrop tcl scripts. Write tclsh scripts that will 'mimic' eggdrops built-in tcl commands. You can see a list of them in the docs folder named tcl-commands.doc. Also i guess you could use the .tcl command, as this would probably show everything like that as well .set errorInfo, so there are alternatives' if your willing to compromise.

This code by user should be useful. It lets you emulate tclsh in Eggdrop's partyline.
