This is a currency converter written in TCL for Eggdrop, which is similar to the ucc.mrc I wrote for mIRC.
I used to use the xeucc.tcl, but that script no longer works and hasn’t been updated since 2008.

<Bot> Could not obtain results from XE.com, sorry!
Sometimes you need to know the time somewhere else in the world. I find it useful to get my eggdrop to return the time of another timezone…

However, much like my old weather.tcl, I realised that my worldtime.tcl had passed it’s sell by date and had now expired.
My old worldtime.tcl which was based on a script by Murf which used worldtimeserver.com to gather it’s data had stopped working.
It would seem that worldtimeserver.com had changed their markup which meant that it was no longer possible to parse the correct data from the HTML.
Never mind, I thought, there must be a better way, that doesn’t need to use a third party website, that won’t stop working.
After all operating systems have worldtime build in without using a website, so how do they do it?
So, I did some investigation…
Today, after I decided to hang out in #eggtcl on EFnet, someone asked the following:
<daILLeST> anyine know of a weather tcl that actually works? All the ones I find are outdated, or in another language…
I decided it was time that I updated my old weather.tcl based on a script by Ycarus for eggdrop bots.
On Sunday July 19 2009 Hardy announced on the EFnet website that Demon Internet will be delinking efnet.demon.co.uk and hub.uk from the EFnet IRC network in August.
For me, it marks the end of an era. There are no more UK IRC servers on the EFnet IRC network.
HM2K’s code repository is now open for business!
This repository is a collection of scripts and code i’ve written in various languages such as mIRC Script, Perl, PHP, TCL, AutoIT, JavaScript, Shell, VB Script and Batch. Read the rest of this entry »
I’m getting fed up with my current IRC BNC software. At the moment I’m using psyBNC, which means I have to connect to it like you would an IRC server, then issue commands to that to tell it to connect to the IRC server of your choice.
I no longer need the features of psyBNC and decided that there must be a better way.
At first I started looking at other, more basic BNC software, but then worked out that they work in very much the same way as psyBNC in the fact that you have to first connect to it, then tell it where to connect to.
So I thought… What about a socks5 proxy?
Looking for someone? huh? Well, look no further, this script is designed to keep log of people quiting, parting, being kicked out of and changing their nick… It also tells you if they are still on IRC, on a different channel or such, its basically the easiest way to keep track of people. It can now also tell you when someone last spoke.
Recently Matt Cutts posted an article on his blog about Recording an IRC channel on Linux/Ubuntu.
However, as you can see his article was all about using the irssi IRC client on Linux/Ubuntu.
I decided that some people may wish to know how to do it on Windows.
Here’s how…
