what
<whitequark>
are you 16
<wpwrak>
we affectionately call him "baby doc" (-:C
* DocScrutinizer05
thanks freenode for NICKLEN=16
<DocScrutinizer05>
otherwise it prolly would be _whitelogger_________________________
<DocScrutinizer05>
;-)
<DocScrutinizer05>
maybe the script needs a fallback to $NICK when ${NICK}__ is in use
<whitequark>
I honestly don't care
<DocScrutinizer05>
a if inuse(), then NICK=${NICK}_; fi eventually will fail
<whitequark>
_whitelogger____ is already at 16 chars
<DocScrutinizer05>
yep
<DocScrutinizer05>
I know
<DocScrutinizer05>
and that's exactly where it fails
<DocScrutinizer05>
adding further _ doesn't help
<whitequark>
so, it went to _whitelogger____ two days ago
<whitequark>
the library I'm using should handle it somehow
<whitequark>
let's see
<DocScrutinizer05>
I think you should reset $NICK on every re-login
<DocScrutinizer05>
this way it would usually only toggle between $NICK and ${NICK}_
<whitequark>
oh well, it will fail, and within five minutes my watchdog would kick in and restart it
<whitequark>
different path, same result :p
<DocScrutinizer05>
why do you use most recently used mangled NICK instead of original NIK on relogin?
<whitequark>
I didn't write that code
<DocScrutinizer05>
I actually hoped you didn't :-)

[2015-08-01 Sat 20:53:23] *** ChanServ gives _whitelogger permission to talk.
<whitequark>
yes, I just fixed it and restarted
<whitequark>
shouldn't do that anymore
<DocScrutinizer05>

pro tip: on IRC networks with nickserv, an early "/msg nickserv GHOST <nick> password" works wonders
<DocScrutinizer05>

DocScrutinizer05 meant: "pro tip: on IRC networks with nickserv, an early "/msg nickserv GHOST <nick> <password>" works wonders"

no conditionals and no reply checking needed, works always (or fails to the safe side)
<DocScrutinizer05>
I'm doing it all the time: connect using a temporary nick, send "/msg nickserv GHOST <nick> <password>", sleep 3; send "/nick DocScrutinizer05"
<whitequark>
that's more work
<DocScrutinizer05>
yoah, your lib prolly has no notion about /nick commands
<DocScrutinizer05>
or handles that opaque
<DocScrutinizer05>
dang. I "studied" the IRC RFC a few months ago, forgot almost all I seen
<DocScrutinizer05>
somehow I think you can't connect to a server without using a nick, and I forgot what happens when that nick is not valid (e.g. since occupied)
