02:46 <caesura> hello all

02:46 <caesura> i'm trying to create a User object from a string containing its nick

02:46 <caesura> i don't understand why the User constructor takes two arguments

02:47 <caesura> setting the second argument to nil brings up some errors

02:47 <caesura> do you guys know what's going on?

02:48 <caesura> in the source, there's an instance variable called @bot that's being thrown around, but I'm not even sure what class @bot is

02:48 <caesura> oh it's probably Bot... i'm an idiot

02:53 <dominikh> caesura: don't use the constructor

02:54 <caesura> ok

02:54 <dominikh> caesura: are you writing a plugin, or using Cinch's APIs directly?

02:54 <caesura> how should i create user objects then?

02:54 <caesura> uh i'm writing a plugin

02:54 <dominikh> User("foo")

02:54 <caesura> that's all?

02:54 <dominikh> User is a method defined in the Helpers module that gets included

02:54 <caesura> wow, thanks

02:55 <dominikh> no problem

15:32 <frdmn> dominikh: I tried adding "bot.log(team['channel'].inspect)" before line 135, but it didnt show any output, so I tried "puts team['channel'].inspect" and that worked

15:33 <frdmn> channel log: http://hastebin.com/huworacoqa

18:21 <dominikh> so it's *exactly* what I told you before. you're effectively doing Channel("#somechannel somekey").send("...") which is incorrect.

21:19 <caesura> is there any way to have the bot produce colored or bold text?

21:22 <catepillar> yes

21:22 <catepillar> dominikh: beat me to it

21:22 <dominikh> won't happen again :P

21:22 <catepillar> lol

21:23 <caesura> :D

21:23 <caesura> thanks

21:38 <caesura> is there any way to make a certain color the default color?

21:38 <dominikh> no.

21:38 <caesura> alright
