If you had searched the forum before, you had found this one. Anyway:

-- help script based on rules by jiten
-- Added option to send .txt to Main/PM/All

sConf = {
	sBot = frmHub:GetHubBotName(),
	sFile1 = "help.txt",
	sView = 0 -- 0: Help in PM; 1: Help in Main; 2: Help sent to everyone
}

function Main()
	frmHub:RegBot(sConf.sBot)
end

function ChatArrival(user,data)
	local data = string.sub(data,1,-2)
	local s,e,cmd = string.find (data, "%b<>%s+[%!%?%+%#](%S+)" )
	if cmd then
		local tCmds = 	{
			["help"] = 	function(user,data)
						if sConf.sView == 0 then
							user:SendPM(sConf.sBot,ReadFile(sConf.sFile1))
						elseif sConf.sView == 1 then
							user:SendData(sConf.sBot,ReadFile(sConf.sFile1))
						else
							SendToAll(sConf.sBot,ReadFile(sConf.sFile1))
						end
					end,
		}
		if tCmds[cmd] then return tCmds[cmd](user,data)	end
	end
end

function ReadFile(file)
	local fFile = io.open(file)
	if fFile then
		local message = ""
		for line in io.lines(file) do
			message = message..line.."\n"
		end
		fFile:close()
		return message
	else
		return file.." not found!"
	end
end

Cheers
