Code:
local UIConfig = CreateFrame("Frame")
UIConfig:RegisterEvent("PLAYER_TARGET_CHANGED")

UIConfig:SetScript("OnEvent",
	function(self, event, ...)
		local arg1 = ...
                print("TEST")
end
I can't even get it to print "TEST" when I target something. If someone could give me a hint, I can figure out the rest, I've just been pulling my hair out for the past two days over this.

Edit: This is for WoW Classic
If this is all the code then you're probably getting an error because of the missing bracket after the last "end" to close the SetScript call.

Lua Code:
  1. local UIConfig = CreateFrame("Frame")
  2. UIConfig:RegisterEvent("PLAYER_TARGET_CHANGED")
  3.  
  4. UIConfig:SetScript("OnEvent", function(self, event, ...)
  5.     local arg1 = ...
  6.     print("TEST")
  7. end)
