How can I read and echo the data being sent to a Socket Connection?
First, you need to be fairly advanced in the areas of remotes, aliases, identifiers and variables. Next, you need to put an on SOCKREAD event into your remotes. To read the data coming from the socket, and put it into a variable, you need to use the command /sockread %variable. All that is left, is the echo command. Here is a template for you to use: on *:SOCKREAD:sockname: { if ($sockerr 0) { return } :nextread sockread %socketdata if ($sockbr == 0) { return } if (%socketdata != $null) { echo -s %socketdata } goto nextread } Where sockname is, you need to put the name of the socket from which the data you want to echo is being sent. The sockread %socketdata line, as I talked about before, reads data received and puts it into a variable (%socketdata). The if (%socketdata != $null) { echo -s %socketdata } line makes sure that %socketdata is not empty before echoing to the status. The other “if” lines make sure that all the data from the socket is read. You may also want to view the Intr
