* Fixed the new http.proxy* settings, they work!
-Just stick the directory somewhere for now, edit rbotconf/conf.rbot and run
-./rbot.rb.
+Just run rbot, it'll ask you for any core information it needs before it can
+start, after that you can configure everything else online using the config
+module.
-You can maintain multiple configurations at once, start rbot with the
-location you want it to store runtime data in. By default, running ./rbot.rb
-uses the rbotconf subdirectory which contains a sample configuration. If you
-run ./rbot.rb ~/.rbot, then the configuration will be stored and read from
-there instead.

+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
