Thanks for your replay , i will try to fix this but i don't know to much about tcl scripts i need to do a stats to get info from a web page to my irc channel

if you need help with something in particular just holla. if someone else is willing to install additional software or has lynx on his system already might want to try your existing script. from my point im only able to play a bit of guessing games and give you hints

The error message "couldn't create error file for command: no such file or directory." usually originates from the exec command, and is usually related with windows systems. In this case, you are using open with a pipe, which is very similar to using exec, just that you gain control of both stdin and stdout.

What you need to do, in essence, is to redirect stderr (which is the cause of the issue) to stdout or some file. Have a look at this post: http://forum.egghelp.org/viewtopic.php?p=90869#90869
Although it deals with exec, not open, the solution should work equally well.
