}Hey I'm tottally lost here..  I'm trying to figure out a way where I can ping the certain ip/port into the channel for everyone to see rather than using echo -a.  Does anyone have an idea?  I already tried displying it by $chan or $nick.  I'd like to make it where it where you can tell which servers are up or down to others by $nick.  But by using the on TEXT action instead.  
Sorta like this?
;; Message the channel to tell it whether it's true or false....
on 1:Text:*!serverstatus*:*:{ }
Example:
<me>!serverstatus
<bot> msg $nick Servers Servers Currently Up
<bot> .timer 1 3 msg $nick Kastien: IP: 127.0.0.1 Port: 7777
<bot> .timer 1 5 msg $nick Titan: IP: 127.0.0.1 Port: 7777
<bot> .timer 1 5 msg $nick ETC: IP: 127.0.0.1 Port: 7777
Can any of you please help me on this?  it would be highly appreciated
