|

|
||||
Please read this document, and the original BotCommander documentation
|
||||
before asking for help! These files contain almost everything possible, and
|
||||
are always growing, as people ask me more and more questions.

(1) WHAT IS BOTCOMMANDER?
|
||||
|
||||
BotCommander is a customisable telnet client, heavily specialized with the
|
||||
usage with Eggdrop IRC bots. Currently it possesses only the planned basic
|
||||
functionality, but I have many-many plans, such as module-writing,
|
||||
scripting and such.
|
||||
|
||||
BotCommander is continously updated: bugs are getting fixed, and new
|
||||
features are being added, which sometimes can cause new bugs. Currently
|
||||
there is a so called "stable" version out there, but there are still known
|
||||
bugs.
|
||||

|

(2) HOW DO I GET BOTCOMMANDER?
|
||||
|
||||
Before you can install/compile BotCommander, you will need several other
|
||||
software installed on your machine.
|
||||
|
||||
As BotCommander currently depends heavily on GTK+ 2 and Gnome 2, you will
|
||||
need these. If you are planning (or must) install BotCommander from
|
||||
sources, you will also need the development libraries of them. These
|
||||
software comes with most of the Linux/Unix distributions, so the only thing
|
||||
you may have to do is to install them.
|
||||
|
||||
The current stable version (as of writing) is 1.0; you can download it
|
||||
(amongst many other files) from http://www.botcommander.hu/.
|
||||
|
||||
Optionally, you can get the latest SVN version from
|
||||
http://www.botcommander.hu/files/botcommander-svn.tar.bz2. BUT BEWARE! This
|
||||
version may contain code snippets which will never compile on any machine!
|
||||
This is because I'm a nasty developer, and sometimes upload this kind of
|
||||
code, so I can continue coding on my other machine after an svn update. I'm
|
||||
also planning to add anonymous SVN access, but currently I don't have
|
||||
enough knowledge about SVN to do such thing.

(3) QUICK STARTUP
|
||||
|
||||
About installation quick-start you should read the INSTALL file; about
|
||||
usage, you should go and read the original BotCommander documentation. The
|
||||
latter is written in DocBook XML, and is compiled into a PDF document upon
|
||||
a successful installation. It can be found in the doc/ directory.
