What is a hostmask?

I added an alias, but it doesn't work!
|

I loaded Alias before, how do I move to Aka?

||||
============================================

|

Take a look at ``help <alias you added>``. If the alias the bot has
|

First load both of the plugins, Aka and Alias. Then run
|

``aka importaliasdatabase`` and ``unload Alias``. Now all your aliases

should be imported to the Aka plugin.

|

I added an aka, but it doesn't work!
|
||||
====================================
|
||||
|
||||
Take a look at ``aka show <aka you added>``. If the aka the bot has
|
||||
listed doesn't match what you're giving it, chances are you need to
|
||||
quote your alias in order for the brackets not to be evaluated. For
|
||||
instance, if you're adding an alias to give you a link to your
|

quote your aka in order for the brackets not to be evaluated. For
|

instance, if you're adding an aka to give you a link to your

homepage, you need to say::
|
||||
|
||||
alias add mylink "format concat http://my.host.com/ [urlquote $1]"
|
||||
aka add mylink "format concat http://my.host.com/ [urlquote $1]"

and not::

alias add mylink format concat http://my.host.com/ [urlquote $1]

same url.

`Karma`, by default, doesn't acknowledge karma updates. If you check
