Starting your eggdrop bot for the first time

Conf edited, die gone, installed to ~/botdir. SSH in. Do not start this from screen/tmux.

First start

cd ~/botdir
./eggdrop -m botnick.conf

-m creates the userfile. First time only. The process daemonizes by itself. Read what it prints — it tells you the next /msg.

Later starts:

./eggdrop botnick.conf

Debug / foreground (quitting kills the bot; not the normal run mode):

./eggdrop -nt botnick.conf

Introduce yourself

When it shows on IRC, /msg BotNick hello (or whatever init-server / hello you set). Then:

/msg BotNick pass YourPassword
/dcc chat BotNick

Partyline: interact with the bot. Never joined? this.

Persist

./scripts/autobotchk botnick.conf

Crontab, not screen. botchk.

AUP: max 2 IRC connections per shell to a given network.
