Extended Description File

README, Eddie Extensions - by me
--------------------------------

Eddie42 - Tcl script(s) for an eggdrop bot to add extra features.
Including: magic 8-ball, polls, random numbers, calculator, insult
generator, channel limiting and various quirky features. :) It can
also ban people who try to send it a .exe, .ini, .vbs, .bat or a .ini
file.

This has only been tested on eggdrop 1.6.x and I don't know if it'll
work on earlier version. If you've tried it, let me know. :)

Everything except "bind evnt - init-server init_serv" 
should work on 1.5.x

If you are still using 1.4.x or earlier, 
maybe it's time to upgrade it??


SETTING UP EDDIE42
------------------

1. Edit eddie.conf, more info on this is included in that file.
   You MUST edit this file or your bot will not work.
    (You may also wish to edit parts of eddie2.tcl)
2. Move eddie2.tcl, insult.tcl, and eddie.conf to your
    eggdrop/scripts directory (You also need to move greeter.tcl
    if you intend to use advanced greeting)
3. Move Techie.sg to the directory you specified in $quotedir
    (NB. This file is only need by the !quote command)
4. Move 8ball.txt to the same directory as your executable
    eggdrop file
5. Move eddie.help to your eggdrop/help directory
6. Add the following lines to your eggdrop config file:
	source scripts/eddie.conf
	source scripts/eddie2.tcl
	source scripts/insult.tcl
        loadhelp eddie.help
7. Restart your bot. :)

TIPS
----
* Using  !help me  will just show you the list of commands, rather than
  showing the whole channel.
* !resetbans is the same as doing .resetbans on the partyline.
  Try  .help resetbans  on the partline for help on what it actually does.
* You are free to edit or delete lines from 8ball.txt using a simple text
  editor.  ;)
* On the partyline, .broadcast will send a message to all the channels,
  but .banner will send a message to everyone on the partyline.
