It does not seem to work, I put in your edit of my script. And I am not getting anything. I put the .txt in the mirc file and nothing. What am I screwing up?

try this

on *:text:* oatmeal *:#: {
  .msg $chan $read($scriptdir\oatmeal.txt)
}

and put he oatmeal.txt in the same dir as you put the script in
make sure you add what you want the responses to be inside the oatmeal.txt

Nope, Still nothing. I don't get why doesn't want to work...

are you runnin it on yourself or on a bot?

Just on a Bot. And then i use my xchat.

k re-did and tested

on *:text:*:#: {
  if (oatmeal isin $1-) {
    .msg $chan $read($scriptdir\oatmeal.txt)
  }
}
