# Some misc functions..  for 2.2 and beyond.

#
# ircII scripting note.  @ var = <expression> is used a lot. One case
# where it is not feasible to use  the @ var = othervar or @ var = funct()
# format is when the $(stuff) construct is needed.  In that case you
# must surround it with [].  e.g.   @ blah = [$($0)]   will assign
# to 'blah' the contents of the variable named in arg 0.
#

#
# These have been updated to handle multiple words.
# format and lformat differ from $[-num]var and $[num]var in that
# They don't chop off the string if it is too long.
# These are obsoleted by the built in $pad() function.
#

    if (@IRCII.word < [$0])

    if (@IRCII.word < [$0])
        { @ function_return = [$([$0]IRCII.word)] }
        { @ function_return = IRCII.word }
}

# pluck a word from a list.
# eg. $blah == "one two three four five"
# $pluck(blah three)     returns "one two four five"
#
alias pluck @ function_return = $0 = $remw($1 $($0))

/*
 * All of these functions have been obsoleted by built in functions
 * in ircII-EPIC.  Some of them were obsoleted by comparable functions,
 * and several of them were re-implemented as built-in functions for no
 * reason other than to provide a faster alternative to these functions.
