I know I wouldn't like it if I said something I didn't like, for it to come back to bite me another time... so, I am wondering if it is possible to delete everything in a file... if the file was: $nick $+ $network $+ randomentmsg.txt (seanturner70#seanturner70randomentmsg.txt)... and when the person types !clear entlogs then all the text is deleted. http://tinyurl.com/seanturner70 Home http://tiny.cc/seanturner70 Live c.ustream.tv #seanturner70

I currently have: Code: on 1:join:#: { if ($me == no-nick) && ($read( $nick $+ $chan $+ rndmsg.txt )} { goto $rand(1,2) :1 \| msg $chan Hey $nick $+ ! Remember the time you said: " $+ $read( $nick $+ $chan $+ rndmsg.txt ) $+ "? \| return :2 \| msg $chan $nick $+ , Just remember, that things come back to haunt you... I even remember the time you said: " $+ $read( $nick $+ $chan $+ rndmsg.txt ) $+ " \| return } } (I am planning on making more... just starting it.) However, when someone joins... it says: Quote: * /if: invalid format (line 7, rnd msg on join) How can I make it so, if the file exists, to carry on? http://tinyurl.com/seanturner70 Home http://tiny.cc/seanturner70 Live c.ustream.tv #seanturner70
