I need to get one string from file every 60-120 minutes and if it is not empty, then set it as topic on #channel. My file will always contain only one dynamic string with fixed lenght (or +- 2 chars).

Can anyone help me with such script?

This should update the topic every hour:
Code:
bind time - 00* updateTopic
proc updateTopic args {
   set f [open yourtopicfile.txt]
   set topic [gets $f]
   close $f
   if {$topic!=""} {
      puthelp "TOPIC #yourchan :$topic"
   }
}

(Not tested. (Remember to change "yourtopicfile.txt" and "#yourchan" to suit your needs))
