[Twitch] Caster command help - mIRC Discussion Forums

So, really noobish question, but I can't seem to fully understand what it is I'm missing from the following code to output a link to the streamers name after the command !caster <name> is put into the chat, any help would be appreciated.

Code:

on $*:text:/!caster /Si:#majeye:{
  msg $chan GO FOLLOW THIS STREAMER twitch.tv/$2 $+ 
}

Nevermind, my fiance and I figured it out!

Code:

on $*:text:/!caster /Si:#:{
  var %caster = $eval($+(www.twitch.tv/,$2))
  msg $chan GO FOLLOW THIS STREAMER %caster $+ 
}

Eval on unparsed and unfiltered user input is dangerous.

on *:text:!caster:#majeye:{
msg $chan GO FOLLOW THIS STREAMER twitch.tv/ $+ $$2
}

Your code will never trigger, it triggers only on the text "!caster", you need to include a & in the trigger context.

I don't know.. it works for me.

Your code will work since you're using a regex match. I was replying to bl968.

Granted that your code may cause people taking control over your pc however, but that's just a "minor" side effect from not knowing what you're doing I guess.

Err I forgot one thing...

on *:text:!caster *:#majeye:{
msg $chan GO FOLLOW THIS STREAMER twitch.tv/ $+ $$2
}

There happy?

Do you have a link where I can read up on eval?

/help $eval ; in the mIRC client.

Is there another thread in the forum or what would be the best scripting to add to this command to include what the caster is playing(last played) on their channel? The output would be like, "Give a follow to (caster) and was last playing (game title here)."
