Listing players in channel

[Munksgaard]

Ok, so i am still kind of a newbie in here, i posted this in the wrong forum...

Here goes:


Hi there

Recently, i made my very first addon, and now, i am up for more challenges

So this time, i need a function which will return the name of the players in some given channel.

I found the function ListChannelByName() on wowwiki.com, but it dosen't seem to return any value, instead it prints the names directly in to the chat window. I cant really use this in my addon as it is going to manipulate the result of the function. Thus, i would like to hear, if any of you more experienced programmers have a solution for this? What i would like is a function that gets the names of all the players currently in channel x.

Thanks a lot in advance

Uhm, ok.

I found this on wowwiki:

And it seems a lot like it does something useful for me (or my addon anyway), but i am not really sure i understand it, to be honest to you...

So what i got is, this script will intercept all the messages sent to your chat window and make you able to do something with it. But still, that leaves me quite confused as to how to use it.

Any help would be highly appreciated.
