Is it possible to let the . be $1 and settrivchan be $2.
But let the command givin be one whole word like .settrivchan
That would make it possible to check $2 (settrivchan)
somewhere in the you then can have:
Code:
 if ($strip($2) != settrivchan) { bla bla }

I have no idea howto do that.
Perhaps somehow use $+ or [ $+ [ bla bla ]]
I also tryed something like:

Code:
 on *:chat:*:{
 if ($left($strip($1),1) == $chr(46)) {
    if ($right($strip($1),-1) == settrivchan) {
    if ($right($strip($1),-1) != settrivchan) || ($chr(35) !isin $2) { msg =$nick Please use 4.settrivchan #chan to set or add a trivia channel to the bot | halt }
    if ($me !ison $2) { msg =$nick Please make sure I am present in $2 $+ , else you cannot add that channel to the bot | halt }
    var %toadd = $2
    chan.add %toadd
    halt
   }
  }
  if (.setpoint == $strip($1)) { etc etc etc and so the if's go on for a while

but i still can't figure it out.
