Package: Bobot++ -- A Schemeable IRC Bot
System name: bobotpp
This package does NOT want to apply for inclusion in the GNU project

Description:
My project is Bobot++, an IRC Bot written in C++. It is a powerful bot that can 
do almost everything that eggdrop can. Instead of a using TCL for scripting, it 
uses GNU Guile Scheme. Guile scripts can add new commands, access all of the 
built in commands (e.g. kick or ban), and use ircII style hooks (which will 
change during the 2.1 development branch to become more powerful). Bobot++ can 
have multiple servers in it\'s server list (it can only be connected to one 
server at a time) and can join as many channels as the IRC server supports. It 
has the ability to create users of different levels (that can access different 
sets of commands) with optional expiration and passwords. You can install time 
based commands that are triggered at specific times of the day or when a timer 
runs out as well. Using scripts you can create very complicated bots that use 
any of the various libraries available for Guile Scheme (e.g. simplesql for 
getting data from a database). 

It already exists and you can download the latest distribution at 
http://unknownlamer.org/files/code/bot/Bobot++-1.99.tar.gz


Other Software Required:
GNU Guile Scheme 1.5.6 or 1.6.1 (about to be released!) is required for 
scripting.
