Auto-respons on pm

Hi there
I am looking for a feature that many BNC's provide.
As soon as someone PM's me I want to start the conversation
with a 
certain string.

Let's say I want everyone that PM's me to see the text:
"Hi there! I will get to you as soon as I can, please
type your full 
question here so that I may help you faster"

Not just when I am away but all the time, so people know
this.
Is there a addon or maybe just a function that does this?

Best regards

There is autowhois.pl on the scripts pages. It can be very
easily
adapted to do what you want, just change the line 

  $server->command("whois $nick");

to something like

  $server->say("msg $nick Yadayada foo");

HTH,
Sander.

Hi!

I am actually using that autowhois.pl script.
But inbedding a autoresponse in that would add some bugs.
First of all if I pm someone and they respond, it will type
the 
autoresponse.
If someone pm's me and then waits a while and types
something again, 
they will get the message both times.

So it would work but I would add other stuff that would be
weird and 
irritating.

Best regards

  All you should need is a quick script like:

...

sub new_query_response
{
	my ($data, $server, $witem) = _;

	$query_nick = ${$data}{'name'};

	...
}
Irssi::signal_add_last('query created',
&new_query_response);

Hi
Should I create a completely new script with just that in
it?
And what should be placed at the ...'s?
I'm not good at the scripting part of irssi but I really
want this thing.
