NOTICE
Be warned that this bot consumes quite a lot of memory upon start
test all modifications properly (and extensively). Suggestions are
welcomed.
- a few guys from #debian@OPN are attempting to rewrite the bot in C
-to support dbm185or2//mysql//postgresql. It's available at
-ftp://leguin.org.uk/pub/bloatbot/
+ gp@OPN is currently working on a C version of infobot or
+blootbot, not based on the above source base. Core factoid code and
+mysql support works - but that is it.
MODIFICATIONS
All modifications are that of the blootbot author unless otherwise
you to find the cookies than for me to hand-feed them to you ;)
See 'EXAMPLES' for various usage of factoids and "hidden"
-variables. If you're hardcore, check out 'CommandStubs.pl' and
+variables. If you're hardcore, check out 'CommandStubs.pl' and
'UserExtras.pl' for cool features.
