This should actually be posted in the forum I think but...
Here's might what you're looking for:
Both searches for a quote with the specified query. The first line with the wilcardmatch of your query will be echoed in your active window or messaged to the channel.
Alias version:
alias searchquote {
if $1 {
if $read(Talk.txt,w, * [ $+ [ $1- ] $+ ] *) {
echo -a Result found:
echo -a $v1
}
else {
echo -a No result were found.
}
}
else {
echo -a You need to specify a something to search for.
}
}
Bot version:
on *:text:!searchquote*:#:{
if $2 {
if $read(Talk.txt,w, * [ $+ [ $2- ] $+ ] *) {
msg $chan Result found:
msg $chan $v1
}
else {
msg $chan No result were found.
}
}
else {
msg $chan You need to specify a something to search for.
}
}
Edit: Changed the $read part in echo/msg to $v1. (facepalm)
