WELCOME TO THE WORLD OF IRCX. 1) Save your old files, or make a brand new eggdrop directory to compile in. This "module" makes changes to src files as well as to a channel.mod file and the irc.mod files. Copy the rest of the files into their respective directories. The filenames are unique i believe. (don't forget the language file). Since IRCX allows nicks up to 23 chars long, you should probably change the NICKMAX in eggdrop.h appropriately (I changed mine to 32). I didn't make eggdrop.h a part of the IRCX distribution, but it probably wouldn't hurt. Then compile. *Oh, a small note here. For some reason my editor sticks a weird char at the end of the files (ctrl-z?). My shell has no problem with it, but i know some do. You might have to either remove all of them from all files, or add a blank line at the end of each file (i think that will fix it). 2) Set these vars in your config file. The tcl proc "set_ircx" is in XTools, and merely sends the server IRCX, alternatively, you can put "putservf " in that proc to auto join with key your rooms whenever you re-connect (a good idea *hint*). If you do this, just be sure the "putservf IRCX" goes in front of your room joins *very important*. set init-server set_ircx set ircx-server 1 Also, don't forget to include Xtools in your config with: source scripts/xtools1.0.tcl 3) Make changes to the following in XTools: a) set newpath "d:\utils\eggdrop1.3.20" your path goes here --^ b) set g_chan "#TreeHouse" (this doesn't really matter, set it to whatever) c) modify the next two vars to your preference. set botnet_nick "Dolph" set prop_notify 1 Your name on the botnet should be in place of Dolph, prop_notify notifies owners, (or whoever else you want) thru a note to the owner on the botnet. A normal "putcmdlog" will not work for security purposes. See prop_chg for need modifications you can do with this. XTools is mostly working. However, the help (.xhelp in dcc) contains some functions that do not yet work, and doesn't contain some that do. (hey, it's beta... :P ) Coming attractions: getops.tcl, taken from the bundled tcl, but modified for IRCX. Dolph. - irc'n on MSN...
