=head1 X-Chat 2 Perl Interface
|
|
|
|
=head2 Introduction
|
|
|
|
This is the new Perl interface for X-Chat 2. However, due to changes in
|
|
xchat's plugin code you will need xchat 2.0.8 or above to load this. Scripts
|
|
written using the old interface will continue to work. If there are any
|
|
problems, questions, comments or suggestions please email them to the address
|
|
on the bottom of this page.

These functions can be to intercept various events.
|
|
hook_server can be used to intercept any incoming message from the IRC server.
|
|
hook_command can be used to intercept any command, if the command doesn't currently exist then a new one is created.
|
|
hook_print can be used to intercept any of the events listed in Setttings-E<gt>Advanced-E<gt>Text Events
|
|
hook_timer can be used to create a new timer
|
|
|

messages entered by the user that is not a command.

This function is used to removed a hook previously added with one of

Either or both of C<$channel> and C<$server> can be undef.

If called as C<Xchat::print( $text )>, it will always return true.
|
|
If called with either the channel or the channel and the server
|
|
specified then it will return true if a context is found and
|
|
false otherwise. The text will not be printed if the context
|
|
is not found. The meaning of setting C<$channel> or C<$server> to

undef is the same as

L<find_context|xchat_find_context>.

The first argument can either be a string or an array reference of strings.

If called as C<Xchat::command( $command )>, it will always return true.

otherwise. The command will not be executed if the context is not found.

C<$nick> - the nick to look for, if this is not given your own nick will be

This function is mainly intended to be used as a shortcut for when you need
|
|
to retrieve some information about only one user in a channel. Otherwise it
|
|
is better to use L<get_list|xchat_get_list>.
|
|
If C<$nick> is found a hash reference containing the same keys as those in the
|
|
"users" list of L<get_list|xchat_get_list> is returned otherwise undef is returned.
|
|
Since it relies on L<get_list|xchat_get_list> this function can only be used in a
|
|
channel context.

|
C<$context> - context returned from L<get_context|xchat_get_context>, L<find_context|xchat_find_context> and L<get_list|xchat_get_list>, this is the context that you want infomation about. If this is omitted, it will default to current context.
|
|
|
|
=back
|
|
|
|
This function will return the information normally retrieved with L<get_info|xchat_get_info>, except this is for the context that is passed in. The information will be returned in the form of a hash. The keys of the hash are the C<$id> you would normally supply to L<get_info|xchat_get_info> as well as all the keys that are valid for the items in the "channels" list from L<get_list|xchat_get_list>. Use of this function is more efficient than calling get_list( "channels" ) and searching through the result.

C<$string> - string to remove codes from
|
|
|
|
=back
|
|
|
|
This function will remove bold, color, beep, reset, reverse and underline codes from C<$string>. It will also remove ANSI escape codes which might get used by certain terminal based clients. If it is called in void context C<$string> will be modified otherwise a modified copy of C<$string> is returned.
