circ

A simple IRC bot in C. Built as an itch-to-scratch project.

It's currently in active use, but in a small, trusted behaviour channel. It's still alpha, and best thought of as being in the prototyping stage. It currently supports joining a single channel, and four users commands:

• .op to +o either the sender or the requested user.
• .topic to set the channel topic.
• .time to announce the time in PST/PDT (Vancouver), EST/EDT (New York), and GMT/BST (London).
• .quit to disconnect the bot.

Usage

• Compile with a simple make.
• Create and edit file users. This file must have at least one line containing the hostmask of the owning user, after which additional user hostmasks can be added. There is a hard limit of 32 users at the moment, but this will be lifted.
• Run with ./bot <alias> <server> <port> <channel>.
