looking for a way to create a time event from the bot channel. ie .tcl bind time 00 09 * * * <post to channel>? and then delete that event afterwards

Was able to find out how to do it and figured I would post it here for others.

in the partyline do the following 1st:

.tcl proc announceStuff {msg args} { putmsg #<channel> $msg }

then you can load the timer with the following:

.tcl bind time - "10 11 17 02 2013" [list announceStuff "\0034 <YOUR MSG HERE>\017"]

time = ("min hour day month year")
don't forget the time uses month as jan=00 feb=01 march=02, etc
