[edit] About
Gilgamesh is an ever-mutating IRC bot. It's been programmed in PHP, Perl, and Python. The Perl and Python versions were multi-threaded to allow efficiency of multi-tasking. PHP does not have threading capabilities, but it has forking which I don't intend to explore. Currently, the version of Gilgamesh that is running is an old PHP version.
Generally, when I, Spyro_boy, develop IRC bots, Ziusudra and Geshtinanna are the nicks I use. When it's a stable release, I rename it to Gilgamesh.
For your information, these weird names are not weird at all, but names of out of Babylonian mythology.
[edit] Trigger
Gilgamesh's trigger is the ampersand (&). Prefix all commands with this character to trigger the bot.
[edit] Commands
- google2 [-n LIMIT<=3] KEYWORD [KEYWORD ..]Search Google for keywords. Specify a limit with -n LIMIT of 3 or under to limit your search results.
- c WORD [NICK]Pull a various message from Gilgamesh's message database. You can direct it to a certain nickname by specifying a nickname.
There are a plethora of other commands, but they will be kept a secret from documentation. I will consider them easter eggs. If you find one, put it under the Easter Eggs header.
[edit] Rules
Flooding the bot will cause you to be banned from the channel for 24-hours. This discludes legitimate use. Judgement of legitimate and illegitimate use will be dealt by Spyro_boy.
[edit] Easter Eggs
Add easter eggs as you find them. Specify a nickname in parentheses to mark the founder.
- Example: &c think (Spyro_boy)
