Text replacement - "IRCBot" to "RadioBot"

New page

{{needs-updating}}
* Note TCL scripting was only in RadioBot v3, this page remains in case it ever makes a comeback.

An upcoming feature/plugin for RadioBot is the addition of Tcl Scripting.
Those of you familiar with the Plugin API will notice the Tcl commands are a ported/simplified version of it.

However, there are of course some new commands specific to the Tcl scripts.

For example bind_event/unbind_event, see [[Tcl Events]] for more information on them.

unbind_all_events type
Removes all bound events of type - be careful though because Tcl has a global interpreter so it will remove the bound events from all scripts.

print string
You should use this instead of puts when possible because it will go through RadioBot's output buffering and logging.

Sends a PM or channel text to IRC. You can also use the aliases msg or privmsg.

SendIRC netno text
Sends a raw IRC command to IRC.

GetBotNick netno
