I see what you mean. I thought he was telling me I should replace :punct: with what he had filled it with earlier. I'm a newbie at scripting, so I wouldn't know.
Okay. I just did exactly his line:
.timer1 1 10 msg %chan Hint: $regsubex(%answer,/[^ [:punct:]]/ug,*)
And this time I get nothing. I just get:
Hint:
I double checked the variable to make sure it's not empty. It's not. It returns the answer correctly if I just do
.timer1 1 10 msg %chan Hint: %answer
