hexpython

This HexChat plugin runs Python code and sends the result to the current channel. To use it, type >>> print(1+2) to a channel, and it will automatically appear as if you also typed 3 after that.

Try without installing:

1. Download hexpython.py to your computer. There are several ways to do this (choose one):
   • Likely easiest way: Make a new file in a text editor (e.g. Windows notepad), and copy/paste the content there
   • Terminal (not for Windows): wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Akuli/hexpython/main/hexpython.py
   • Terminal (if you have installed git): git clone https://github.com/Akuli/hexpython
   • Click green "Code" button on GitHub, click "Download ZIP", then extract the zip
2. In HexChat, type /load and then path to the file. For example, /load /home/akuli/hexpython/hexpython.py. If you get Maybe you need to install the Perl or Python plugin? errors on Windows, you likely need to install Python 3.6 and then reinstall HexChat. HexChat needs 3.6 specifically, so newer Pythons won't help, but it's fine to have many Python versions installed at the same time. See hexchat/hexchat#2171.

To install so that it auto-loads when HexChat starts, copy hexpython.py to HexChat's plugin folder:

• Windows: open "Run" prompt from start menu, type %appdata%\HexChat\Addons, drag and drop hexpython.py there
• Linux or MacOS: run cp path/to/hexpython.py ~/.config/hexchat/addons/
