hello again,

i'm in need of some assistance with a snippet called nick sniper by bl4h. i cant seem to get it right, the problem is that i can't get it to do the if nick is online check, i don't know how to do this. this what i have got so far:

Code:

 
nicksniper { 
if ($tempr(NickSniper,Enabled) == On) { 
  if (%stealnickback = $null) { set %stealnickback $?="What nick do you want back?" } 
  if ($me = stealnickback) { echo -a *** Not watching %stealnickback anymore } 
  %stealnickback = $1 
  if ($timer(stealnickback)) { .timerstealnickback off } 
  .timerstealnickback 0 5  
  echo -a *** Watching nickname $1  
} 
else echo -a *** Nick Sniper Is Not Enabled !!! 
}

and the raw that goes with it :

Code:

 
raw 303:*:{ 
if (%stealnickback != $2) { 
  nick %stealnickback 
  echo -a *** Regained %stealnickback  
  .timerstealnickback off | halt 
 }

to clarify what this is supposed to do is recapture your nick when either you get disconected and rejoin a chan and you ghosted or someone has your nick. it cycles the check thru a timer and when the nick becomes free it takes it back automaticly. now i have this set to work from a dialog. i know this is not correct, so i'm looking for some help.

here is what the original code looks like:

Code:

 
raw 303:*:{ 
  if (%bl4h.stealnick != $2) { 
    nick %bl4h.stealnick 
    echo -a *** Regained %bl4h.stealnick  
    unset %bl4h.stealnick 
    .timerstealnick off 
  } 
  haltdef 
} 
alias snipenick { 
  if (!$1) { echo -a USAGE: /snipenick &lt;nickname&gt; | halt } 
  if (%bl4h.stealnick) { echo -a *** Not watching %bl4h.stealnick anymore } 
  %bl4h.stealnick = $1 
  if ($timer(stealnick)) { .timerstealnick off } 
  .timerstealnick 0 5 /ison $1 
  echo -a *** Watching nickname $1  
}

any help is appreciated.... thanks in advance
