Welcome to the wonderful world of artificial intelligence!

For information on installing this module, please read INSTALL.

For information about the rest of the files, please read CONTENTS.


Configuration

  +megahal -- A channel setting.  You must set +megahal on each channel that you
    wish the module to listen and respond to.

  +learnall -- A channel setting.  This setting will enable learning from
    everything said on the channel.  It will still only respond to
    properly prefixed (see below) channel messages.

  set mega_wpm <whole number> -- A config/Tcl file setting.  Words Per Minute.
    This will set the speed that replies, more or less, are sent at.
    Default: 120.


Usage

  Channel -- Say a line prefixed with the bot's nickname followed by a character
    and a space or just a space.  Example: Lamestbot, How are you today?

  Private Message -- Same as above.

  Dcc Chat -- The command for dcc chat is `.megahal <text>'.

  Tcl
    learn <text>
      Makes the bot learn the specified text.  Returns nothing.
    getreply <text>
      Gets the bot's reply for the given text.  The bot does not learn from this
      text.  Returns the reply.


The module automatically saves its brainfile whenever the userfile is saved.
If you wish to make it save separately, use the dcc command .brainsave or the
private msg command BRAINSAVE <password>.
