Another bot scripting question. How to fix a !caster command.
reddit / irc

I run chat bots for Twitch streamers. I am trying to create a !caster
command similar to nightbots. Right now I have this:

on *:TEXT:!caster*:#(channel): { set %caster $2-
  .msg #(channel) Check out %caster at twitch.tv/ %caster
}


which kind of works, but there is a space after the / in the url and
when I take that space away it responds instead with "Check at (caster
works here) at twitch.tv/%caster (no variable change).


r/irc, any way to fix this so that it returns a full url with no
space? Thanks in advance.

You will need to use $+, eg.

    twitch.tv/ $+ %caster

or

    $+(twitch.tv/,%caster)
