MrBot

Currently online in the major RS channels as MrBot.

See http://www.rebelsquadrons.org/irc/bot.help for instructions on using the bot.

todo

• Creation of channel logs, private message logs, system event logs
• Creation of "background mode"--necessary to run bot easily off of the server
• Creation of "private mode"--to toggle option of displaying online status on RS.org - Home
• Updating "seen" feature
  • Only list each hostmask once, in order of online, then last action
  • Fix listing offline before online--usually doesn't, but did recently.
  • Remove hostmasks from seen feature.
  • Link nicknames? Useful for IRC stats, as well. Treat all nicks who have /nick'd each other as one person. Perhaps difficult to implement.
  • Track online time?
  • Add management of !part and !quit -- make RSBot update seen information when it leaves channels, not just when others do.
  • Make last seen tracked in days, H:i:s ago, instead of just a flat "last seen" date, for clarification.
  • Add more humorous responses when no results found
• Fix auto-opping people that only have voice access
• Add auto-mode preferences (autoop, autovoice) for each person/channel
• Make commands case-insensitive
• Add [!hostmask nick] command for looking up all hostmasks a person has used.
• Set up BP point for IRC to go automatically through the bot (requiring the RSer to login to the bot)
• Add [!action msg] now that it's known how to do so.
• Have !email take multiple parameters and create a comma-delineated list of emails (pins_to_emails() will probably do the trick)
• Have !lookup return emails as well as profile links.
•  ? Add auto-notification of ITOD reports to channels of fleets (how? I may need to set up a second fsockopen and listen to the RS site.)
•  ? Add auto-notification of news items to channels of fleets and B&G (despite how certain parties in the B&G will complain)
