[Very simple] Chat command not working?

[Adiminium]

Hello everyone, I get the feeling I've done something stupid, I just started with LUA so please dont flame me.

hook.Add('PlayerSay', 'dhpointschatcommand'), function ( ply, text )
	text = string.lower( text )
	
	if ( string.sub( text 1, 5 ) == '!test' ) then
		
		Player:PrintMessage( HUD_PRINTTALK, "DH points is a work in progress!" )
	
	end
	
end

I would appreciate it if someone could tell me what i done wrong rather than fix it for me.

Thanks in advance

function chatCommand( ply, text, public )
    text = string.lower(text )

    if ( string.sub( text, 1, 5 ) == "!test" ) then

          ply:PrintMessage( HUD_PRINTTALK, "DH points is a work in progress!" )


    end
end

hook.Add( 'PlayerSay', 'chatCommand', chatCommand);

//You need a comma ;)

string.sub( text, 1, 5 )

--not
string.sub( text 1, 5 )

hook.Add("PlayerSay", "dhpointschatcommand", function ( ply, text )
text = string.lower( text )

if ( string.sub( text, 1, 5 ) == '!test' ) then

ply:PrintMessage( HUD_PRINTTALK, "DH points is a work in progress!" )

end

end )

I do this: [url]https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/26074909/tutoring/chat_commands/chat_commands.lua.html[/url]

I redirect ! and / commands to console commands. Just concommand.Add and add any commands like motd, or whatever else. Works perfectly.
