rbot README
===========
rbot is a ruby IRC bot. Think of him as a ruby bot framework with a highly
modular design based around plugins.
rbot features
=============
* Runtime configuration via irc chat
* User authentication and access levels for using different bot features
* Built in infobot-style keywords. See example session below.
* Support for underlying fact database (infobot fact files), which can
be overridden or supplemented by runtime keyword controls
* Multi-language support - comes with english, dutch and german definitions
so far - more translations welcome
* Powerful plugin architecture, comes with plugins for:
o DNS queries
o Babelfish translation
o Google searching
o Excuse generation
o Insult generation
o Karma
o Checking the weather
o Querying slashdot
o Doing Math
o Per-channel quote storage, searching and retrieval
o Reminders
o rot13 translation
o Check the spelling of a word
o Webserver Server: header examination
o RPG dice rolling
o larting people
o conversation stats
o more...
Thanks are owed to the infobot developers - several of rbot's features are
inspired by infobot and so are some of the default plugins. Thanks are also
owed to RADKade1, as rbot's quote plugin is a direct reimplementation of his
"quotesaq" - simply because it's a great quote interface.
Mainly, rbot's fun to play with, although the plugin architecture can be used
to write very useful modules
