Library for writing fun IRC bots.
One day an idea came up on the #freepost IRC channel: We didn't need much of the serious features IRC bots provide, but we could develop an IRC bot collaboratively, for fun and for learning new skills and languages! I also thought this is a great chance for people to quickly see their code in real use, which is motivating when learning programming, and it's a chance to introduce Haskell to the community.
This library powers FunBot (which at the time of writing runs under the nickname fpbot in Freenode) and its development is therefore driven by actual bot needs.
See the .cabal file for more info and link to project website the version control.
The official download location is Hackage:
http://hackage.haskell.org/package/irc-fun-bot
This library is free software, and is committed to software freedom. It is released to the public domain using the CC0 Public Domain Dedication. For the boring "legal" details see the file 'COPYING'.
See the file 'INSTALL' for hints on installation. The file 'ChangeLog' explains how to see the history log of the changes done in the code. 'NEWS' provides a friendly overview of the changes for each release.
