Please read this document before asking questions. (1) WHAT IS THE TCL PLUGIN? The XChat Tcl Plugin adds the complete Tcl scripting language to the XChat 1.9.x and 2.x IRC client. The design philosophy behind the tcl plugin was to give all the power of the C API. yet completely shield the user from all the complexities of it. It is lightly modeled after after Xircon; an old windows TCL enabled client with a little bit of eggdrop functionality to it. Features: * Uses the popular TCL scripting language. * Familiar to eggdrop bot owners. * Adds many new XChat specific commands to the Tcl language for handling of events, user commands, timers, etc. * It's actually documented! (Hey, what a concept!) * Works with XChat 1.9.x and 2.x. * Open source (GPL) The supplied documentation for Tcl Plugin commands can be found in doc/tclplugin.html For a comprehensive list of IRC server tokens, see doc/tokens.txt (2) HOW TO GET TCL PLUGIN You can always find the latest version of the Tcl Plugin at: http://www.scriptkitties.com/tclplugin You must also have Tcl 8.3 or higher installed on your system.
