This page is an archive of the hacks, patches and extension files that
appear on the mailing list
or that find their way to me
and I think are pretty cool.
Extensions
BugTrack.patch - Provide bug reports to a
specified administrator address. mstevens, you're a star.
Dict.pm - A dictionary server interface, from teckle.
Botmail.pl - Message passing along with instructions as to what you need to hack to make
it work. This has been tested and works. Needs documenting, though.
SMS.pl - /msg someone's pager. Yow!
Just stick
if ($message =~ /^SMS to (.*?)\s*: (.*)/i) {
return sms_send($1,$who,$2);
}
into Extras.pl; untested, no docs, and requires the command-line utility
sms.
oxdate.pl - You almost certainly don't want this.
Converts Oxford University calendar to Gregorian and back again.
Tested, no docs. Glue lines:
if ($message=~ /^oxdate (.*)/) {
performReply(oxdate("to",$1)); return 'NOREPLY';
}
if ($message=~ /^unoxdate (.*)/) {
performReply(oxdate("from",$1)); return 'NOREPLY';
}
Patches
Samy's patches: (CommPort5++)
Xfire's patches:
My patches: These are extremely experimental and nasty. Don't expect any of themto have been tested by anyone ever.
Nick Regaining - This has been tested and
works. If the bot doesn't get the nick it wants, this will try and get
it back.
DBM More Info - Do NOT apply this
patch if you currently have any data. Provides a multilevel framework
for factoid storage, allowing you to get at how many accesses and
modifications the factoid has had, and when it was last accessed.
(It won't work anyway, because I need to change the dbmopens to MLDBM
ties.)
Factoid Aliasing - Saying
`foo is <alias>bar' will symlink foo to bar. Incompatible with
above patch.
Nickometer on Join - When someone
joins the channel, the bot nickometers their nick and responds
sarcastically.
Do not forget to enjoy the source.
