recentdepart.pl: "Uninitialized value in substraction"

I just installed recentdepart. It seems to work fine but sometimes it displays the following error message in the status window:

Use of uninitialized value in subtraction (-) at /home/thiht/.irssi/scripts/autorun/recentdepart.pl line 254.

scriptassist.pl doesn't really work anymore

i've pointed scriptassist to the github repo (or i think i did) by setting scriptassist_script_sources = "http://ghscripts.irssi.org/scripts.dmp";

and also tried pointing to the github script.dmp file located at https://raw.githubusercontent.com/irssi/scripts.irssi.org/gh-pages/scripts.dmp

none of the functionality that is beyond local state doesn't work.

thanks!

hilightwin.pl - unable to log messages posted in hilight window

I think it should be possible to log all messages posted to the hilight window.
I've tried /window log which doesn't work.

Is it possible to do this?

[complete_at.pl] add more nicks to completion history

would like to be able to tab over more than one nick in complete_at.pl

[aidle.pl] PRIVMSG to self not enough to unset idle on OFTC

At least on the OFTC network, the PRIVMSG sent to self isn't enough to make a user appear un-idle. I have not yet found a better way.

anames.pl - /anames output isn't necesarily ordered the same as /names

It seems to mostly have to do with ~ and & prefixes.

[people.pl] does not seem to reop when bot was not opped yet when seeing the join

people.pl script tries to op people only when they join. If he fails to do it because he himself did not had +o at that time, he does not try it later once he gets +o himself.

18:06 -!- mode/#cjdns-pl [+o rfreemanw] by atest
18:06 -!- rfreemanw [~rfreew@fc31:...] has left #cjdns-pl [Leaving]
18:06 -!- rfreemanw [~rfreew@fc31:...] has joined #cjdns-pl
meshnetpl bot can not OP rfreeman because himself he is not opped now

18:06 -!- mode/#cjdns-pl [+o meshnetpl] by atest
meshnetpl does not see it now can OP rfreemanw

18:08 -!- rfreemanw [~rfreew@fc31:...] has left #cjdns-pl [Leaving]
18:08 -!- rfreemanw [~rfreew@fc31:...] has joined #cjdns-pl
18:08 -!- mode/#cjdns-pl [+ov rfreemanw rfreemanw] by meshnetpl
only now it tries again

Expected outcome:

when ever the bot is opped, it should look again at all nicks, is there anyone he would like to op, and if yes then he should op them.

[adv_windowlist] sort in order of first activity

It would be cool if the AWL could be sorted in order of activity first occuring, i.e. the item on the left end would be the one that had activity before all the others, while an item that receives activity for the first time would be appended to the right.

Or vice versa, with '-' prepended…

I stared at the code for a while but couldn't figure it out. If you have any clues, then I could also just give it a try.

Usage examples?

Use examples would be nice...

autoaway.pl: Dead code

The check for autoaway_state in line https://github.com/irssi/scripts.irssi.org/blob/gh-pages/scripts/autoaway.pl#L82 is dead code because in the line before https://github.com/irssi/scripts.irssi.org/blob/gh-pages/scripts/autoaway.pl#L77 the same variable is set to zero, so it can't be two.

[chanact.pl] Diverged from upstream

The chanact.pl script in this repo has diverged from usptream, available here. I've written to Stefan Völkel to get his input on how to proceed. This issue is mainly for information for now.

trigger.pl 'masks' filter doesn't work

/trigger add -all -masks '*!*@*' -regexp 'foo' -replace 'bar' results in a replacement never happening.
/trigger add -all -regexp 'foo' -replace 'bar' works as expected.

Changing the 'types' declaration (here) for the masks filter to ['publics'] instead of \@all_types and using -publics instead of -all fixes this for what I need it for, not too familiar with Perl though, so I can't offer a proper fix.

[adv_windowlist] Negative repeat count

I've been running adv_windowlist for a long time, and just recently got around to upgrading from 0.6ca->1.3 since quite a lot has changed - but somehow, I end up with a tiny 2-character pane which (when expanded) reveals the following error message: Negative repeat count does nothing at /home/debdrup/.irssi/scripts/adv_windowlist.pl line 1986.
Since I have absolutely no idea what that means, I'm hoping someone more clever than me can come up with a solution. If it's relevant, here is some system output:

trackbar uses deprecated perl functions

trackbar.pl script in line 192 uses smartmatch (~~) which has been marked in newer perl as experimental, thus throwing errors and making scripts not load.

autorejoin.pl: The script bundled with Irssi is different than the one here

• scripts.irssi.org: v1.0.0
• irssi: v1.00

Looks like the bundled script is newer and better. The version number could be updated.

urlgrab.pl error /urlsh: 1: netscape-remote: not found

System: Linux/Debian "Stretch"
Desktop: LXDE/Openbox
Default Browser: Iceweasel/Firefox

Running the command /url causes the error:

/urlsh: 1: netscape-remote: not found

No browser window/tab opens with last posted url.

• Reason / Code position: Probably caused near line 38 of sub url_cmd{}.
• Possible solution: Add a recommencation to the user to create an alias for this command to trigger the browser.
• Alternative solution: url_cmd needs a OS check to deliver different cases for the default trigger command.

In case of Debian following lines work:

system("iceweasel --new-tab $lasturl &>/dev/null");
system("firefox --new-tab $lasturl &>/dev/null");

instead of

system("netscape-remote -remote ... etc ... &>/dev/null");

near line 38 in function sub url_cmd{}.

nickcolor.pl with 256 colors please?

Not sure how to get this going. IIUC https://raw.githubusercontent.com/irssi/scripts.irssi.org/gh-pages/scripts/nickcolor.pl suggests we should just use ~13 colours and then I'm suffering with conflicts, i.e. nicks with same colours.

[ctrlact] query command does not work without specifying network tag

The command

/ctrlact query #foo

does not work, unless I specify the network tag, e.g.

/ctrlact query -oftc #foo

The reason seems to be that the tag defaults to '*', which isn't properly matched.

urlinfo.pl line 123 causes error on GItHub bot posts in IRC

Not sure, but maybe in line 123 expected => "FS#155 hilight -tag", of the urlinfo.pl script the part FS#155 looks somehow wrong to me. Not sure what it stands for, nor is it a color HEX code, since there is no S, only ABCDEF and numbers from 0-9 in color HEX. And maybe it is not connected to the issue I have here, but the script doesn't work properly, when a GitHub bot posts links in dev channels.

Examples from #lxde on Freenode:

[16:03] < GitHub> [qtermwidget] f2404 opened pull request #73: Allow app to add custom color sheme locations (master...141_custom_color_scheme_dir) https://github.com/lxde/qtermwidget/pull/73

urlinfo error: GET failed on https://github.com/lxde/libqtxdg/commit/fee311814b15F: 404 Not Found

urlinfo seems to add an F on the end of the url it tries to grab, and I am not sure if this is connected to line 123 or another bug.

Add sb_search.pl

sb_search.pl was removed from the default scripts because it is not here:

irssi/irssi@a663d2f

Removed sb_search.pl which is not contributed into the script archive, I will poke coekie about it.

Which means that with my 0.8.18 git install, the only way i have to get it is through a 0.8.17 release. Also my /scrollback search broke when upgrading, surprising no absolutely one.

@coekie @GeertHauwaerts poke

Not sure why poking is needed, probably asking for permission to upload it here, which i'm not sure why it's needed since it's one of the few scripts that has a proper GPLv2 header with copyrights.

ghscripts.irssi.org points to an old build of this repo

Compare:

http://ghscripts.irssi.org
http://scripts.irssi.org

First question ("How do I run scripts?") appears twice, which was fixed in a recent commit.

Github can't handle more than one CNAME per site, so I believe the ideal solution is to point ghscripts to a server which can do an HTTP redirect to the new site.

hide some hilights from fnotify

I'd like to see something like the below diff added to fnotify so that I can hilight messages that are annoying, but that I don't want to ignore. In my case, I'm hilighting them to a color that is close to my background color so they'll be subdued. The below change works for me (no fnotify ignores all hilighted messages with priority=0 which is the default priority) but it'd be nice for this to be a configureable variable.

act.pl stopped working in 0.8.19

Hey,

act.pl (which is tiny but very helpful) stopped working in 0.8.19. Unfortunately I'm not able to fix it myself. Last commit was by @dgl.

Thanks for your help
Boris

needs a disclaimer

I'm finding a lot of these scripts don't even work. If you:

• enable all of the scripts in autorun/
• scandeps.pl *.pl > ~/.irssi/module_deps
• while read in; do cpan i $(echo $in | awk '{ print $1 }' | sed "s/'//g" ); done < module_deps

Alot of dependencies aren't even available in cpan. A ton of the scripts still won't work. Also, what's to say there aren't backdoors in any of these scripts?

desktop-notify.pl: unable to display Chinese

[slack_complete.pl] needs some fixes for Gitter

https://github.com/irssi/scripts.irssi.org/blob/master/scripts/slack_complete.pl

It looks like the script doesn't work with Gitter anymore.

They changed the API for https://irc.gitter.im/ and Gitter only submits the first 31 nicks for each channel's memberlist (gitterHQ/irc-bridge#52 or gitterHQ/irc-bridge#55).

While the script works fine with those random 31 nicks. It doesn't with all other nicks writing public messages. Irssi auto completes those other nicks just fine the IRC way: "nick:" There might be a way to get those nicks extracted from public messages and add them manually to the nicklist via https://github.com/shabble/irssi-docs/wiki/Channel#nick_insert_%24nick%2C_%24op%2C_%24voice%2C_%24send_massjoin

Then all nick related Gitter channels would work transparently, by manually trickle in recent nicks.

Scriptassist check gets confused when minor revision number has two digits

So, just learnt about scriptassist and ran /scriptassist check. This surprised me:

| o cap_sasl       Your version is newer (1.5->1.1)

When investigating, I found that the version for cap_sasl is set to 1.10 in this repo. If you treat version numbers as floats I understand what scriptassist is getting at, but version numbers are not floats, so the result in this case is incorrect - 1.10 is a newer version than 1.5. However, it seems like more complex version numbers (such as screen_away 0.9.8.1) do not cause any problems, so I might be wrong with my assumption that the issue is comparing version numbers as floats.

In addition, as I mentioned, the latest cap_sasl version is 1.10, but scriptassist and the website reports it as being 1.1.

Enable Travis CI for Scripts

It would be nice if someone could look into getting Travis CI running for irssi/scripts.git with the following features:

• For every pull-request, run some Perl analyzer that can emit warnings and errors, for all new and modified *.pl files in the changeset.
• Return an error on warning/error such that we can quickly spot problems with the scripts.

I don't have the needed Perl knowledge to do this, so I will let it be up for someone else to take care of.

I tried; sudo cpan install Bundle::LWP.
Now I get this error:

My apologies if this is something totally obvious;
I currently have very minimal experience with Perl.

mail.pl broken

The latest commit (dd80027 on 19 Oct 2014) broke mail.pl. This script is not compatible with "use strict" - at least not in the buggy state it is at the moment.

[adv_windowlist] Control/disable window name shortening (`fancy_abbrev`)

The fancy_abbrev feature is great except when it actually obscures information. Unfortunately, I cannot find a way by which to influence the target length of the abbreviated string, or a way to turn this abbreviation off.

I understand that the target length seems to be calculated from the actual window width, but shouldn't that be configurable, if desired?

Setting the target length to a real high number (or -1) could then be a indication to avoid this feature altogether.

Generate scripts.yaml from %IRSSI hash

The current scripts.yaml file is obviously autogenerated. It seems pointless to manually duplicate the effort of filling that information

I know perl parsing isn't trivial (and in fact I got this idea because i noticed the parsed information handles string concatenation wrong, which reminded me that the previous scripts repo worked this way), but any possible bugs in the parsing can be fixed with the magic of pull requests.

And submitting scripts is more effort than it should be.
