IRC Listener
Maintainer: Noel Bush
Latest Release: 1.2.1 (12 Mar 2006)
The IRC Listener for Program D is a drop-in component that you can add to Program D that will enable one or more bots to connect to an IRC network and talk to users in channels.
As of version 1.2, this listener has been rewritten to use the PircBot Java IRC framework and it now appears to work satisfactorily for basic chatting (private messages only). Currently, the "shell commandable" feature that allowed sending IRC commands directly from Program D's interactive shell is not available, however.
Installation is simple: You copy the jar files from the lib and distrib directories directory into your Program D lib/irc-listener directory, configure your listeners.xml, and start up.
Please use this listener with the final version of Program D 4.6, rather than a release candidate (installation will be easier).
