Some little tricks that you may or may not know about... * You can "lock" a user's info line by putting a '@' as the first letter. They won't be able to change it any more. * '.status all' will dump out virtually everything you have configured on your bot * TCL has a command 'info body ' that will list the contents of a proc. 'info args ' shows what you have defined as the parameters for the proc. * You can rename a builtin command by binding over it. To rename '.status' to '.report', you'd do: unbind dcc - status *dcc:status bind dcc m report *dcc:status The first line removes the builtin binding on '.status', and the second line binds '.report' to the builtin status function. Other built-in command examples include: unbind msg - status *msg:status bind msg m report *msg:status and: unbind fil - share *fil:share bind fil m link *fil:share * You can unlink all bots and clear out the botnet info from memory by using '.unlink *'. It erases all channel assoc's and everything. * You can automagically make a ban sticky by adding a * as the first character in the ban reason. * You can add a user with a static hostmask when using .adduser by prefixing their nick by !. ie with a hostmask of drummer!ident@some.host.com .adduser drummer uses *!ident@*.host.com .adduser !drummer uses *!ident@some.host.com * If you don't want your logfiles to be deleted after two days and don't want the bot to create a new logfile each new day, then set 'keep-all-logs' to 0 and 'switch-logfiles-at' to 2500 in your bot config file to make it keeping one logfile all the time. However this is not recommended on high traffic channels. * You can modify eggdrops output in partyline, kick msg and other texts by editing core.english.lang in the language directory.
