Punctuation after $song

Added by Paul Aburn over 1 year ago

Is it possible to add punctuation immediately after $song?

eg if I have:

/say palaran is listening to $song

The OCD in me wants to add a fullstop immediately after $song, so that when it returns the value it then completes the sentence. However, if I do so it then fails to return the value for $song, presumably because it is treating it as '$song.' which it does not recognise.

I notice that $1 for nick, for instance, does not suffer from same issue.

TIA

If you want to attach a '.' (period) to the string returned by $song you can use $+ to attach it:

//say palaran is listening to $song $+ .

Using /say works only in the window having the keyboard cursor, so your script can instead use:

msg #channelname

Hi thanks for that. The OCD in me can now punctuate correctly. :)
