can u add mask support to hadd also ? (like /hdel -w)

just i use hash for players and their scores

to reset example: /hadd -w player.* 0
will be very good for me.

p.s Yes i can use $hfind, and while, i know, don't need tell me about it, it's just my question can it be added or no.

If you are resetting scores, you are much better off with an alias that creates the table in the beginning that can be used to re-create it anytime it needs "reset".

It *could* be added, but it doesn't seem all that useful outside this very specific use-case. It would be asking for something like

/set -w %var.* 0

When you could just do

/unset %var.*

Seems very much like an edge case. Write your loop or just reset the table with { hdel tab | hmake tab 100 } (which, as mentioned, your initializing alias should already do)

I think this would be a useful addition to the hash commands. The -w switch could be added to /hinc and /hdec as well.

[htbl]
var.A 1
bob.B 2
var.C 3
var.D 4
bob.E 5
var.F 6
bob.G 7
var.H 8

/hinc -sw htbl var.* 3
- Incremented 5 matching hash items by 3


/hdec -sw htbl var.* 8
- Decremented 5 matching hash items by 8


/hadd -sw htbl var.* 43
- Set 5 matching hash items to 43



Can these be scripted? Yes. But then, so could have /hdel -w htbl var.* or /unset %var.*

Ever considered a database? They're actually designed for that sort of functionality, where as a hashtable, well... It's sort of inefficient.
