main: I learn mainly by observing declarative statements such as "x is at http://www.xxx.com", and then reply when people ask things like "where can i find x?"

+action: This is used to override the usual response. "x is <action> does the hokey-pokey". When asked about x, the bot does this "* blootbot does the hokey-pokey"
+
+alternation: The || symbol in an entry causes an blootbot to choose one of the replies at random. "X is Y||Z" will produce "X is Y" or "X is Z" randomly.

corrections: If I come back with "...but x is at http://xx.xx.xx" or something like that, and you want to change the entry, use "no, x is at http://sdfsdfsdf". The "No," tells me to supercede the existing value.
corrections: you can append stuff to a factoid with "also". "x is also at ..."
-action: This is used to override the usual response. "x is <action> does the hokey-pokey". When asked about x, the bot does this "* blootbot does the hokey-pokey"
+redirection: If a factoid x contains simply "<reply> see y", then when asked for x, I will deliver factoidor command result y instead.
reply: There is a special tag, <reply>, that is used to override the usual response. Usually, a response is "X is Y", but it can be made "Y" by making the entry "X is <reply> Y".
-alternation: The || symbol in an entry causes an blootbot to choose one of the replies at random. "X is Y||Z" will produce "X is Y" or "X is Z" randomly.
