I do beleive there is a script for windows uptime somewhere on the forum, which includes a link to software required to get the uptime information.

Windows doesn't provide uptime in the same way *nix does, so a third-part program is needed.

However, due to inherant problems with windrop, Tcl and executing other programs, you may find it doesn't work./

here you can download uptime.exe from my ftp and use the script below, put uptime.exe in your home dir

Code: Select all

bind PUB - !uptime uptime:pub

proc uptime:pub {nick uhost hand chan arg} { 
  global botnick
  foreach line [split [exec uptime.exe] \n] {
    putquick "NOTICE $nick :$botnick [join [lrange [split $line " "] 1 end]]" 
  }
}

well its not entirely true cause it will show the uptime of the computer so .. but so will the uptime script for unix cause if it wasn't you could use the same tcl commands and they probaly use exec uptime so .. basicly its the same

That is exactly the error I talked of in my message. There is currently no way around it.

Sorry this is a bit off topic but do you know if they are trying to fix that problem ppslim? cuz its a bit annoying

It is suspected to relate to the way eggdrop kills control of STDOUT and STDERR before entering the main loop.

As the development team are not activly developing for windows, they are not looking for a solution for this.

Eggdrop works on windows as designed. There is no need for external interfacing in the core, as such, they havn't changed it.

You may like to comment out lines 885 to 897 in src/main.c. You can then follow the instructions on http://windrop.sf.net/ for compilation help.

I released a uptime and statistics script in the egghelp tcl's

status.TCL v1.0.1

or

Code: Select all

unix uptime -  catch {exec uptime} boxuptime 
windows uptime - [duration [expr [clock clicks] / 1000]]

Hope that helps

yes there is i do it all the time :p

euhm load windrop like this sorry for got eggdrop -n config file then it will work

let me know if it does or doesn't hehe and put the uptime.exe in windrop root

note: this will run eggdrop in to forground you can put it to background by installing it as a service, or use a /b switch in dos not sur on how to use that never done that before but i know its possible (/b = background)

for service if your on w2k use firedaemon 0.9c or something
if on xp => use srunner cause firedaemon won't work or you should use the latest one witch isn't free if i remember well if you want srunner or firedaemon let me know i got em both
