Other License: 
Package: PYantra
System name: pyantra
Type: GNU

Description:
PYantra is an IRC framework (and a bot by itself) for writing bots. \'Yantra\' 
in sanskrit means a machine and since this bot / machine is written in python, 
we call this pyantra. The following are its features:

* A plugin based architecture for reading from IRC channels and replying to IRC 
Channels. One can write plugins in any language that reads from stdin and 
outputs to stdout.

* plugins are run based on regexps so there can be multiple plugins

* This project will also aim at writing a few drop-in plugins like a google 
search plugin, weather information, news headlines information, archiver 
plugin, etc.,.

There is a _very_ little work done (the first steps towards this) at 
http://symonds.net/~suraj/sandy-me/pyantra/pyantra.tar.gz



Other Software Required:
depends on python. We also plan to write a lower level python API for writing 
plugins to this bot.
