Post by: Kokowam on April 01, 2008, 01:24:59 AM
I want to make a remote script where if someone says something, I do an action or say something or something. ;-; Help?

Get mIRC, it has a programming whatever thing built in it.

Yeah. mIRC is an easy way to do this. It has inbuilt scripting possibility, with simple triggering action -> command to be executed syntax. I once had even a personal web page owned for mIRC scripting. (Back when I still had web pages at university's server). There may be some of my 'tutorials' still left in oldgames.nu forums where I was active member back then. (My own page has been down for ages now). mIRC also included quite decent help manual for API it offers, but it is always easier if you see also the basic principles explained somewhere.

If you need some more advanced features, and wish to have your bot running entirely at background, and if you know TCL language, then I suggest you to check out the EggDrop (http://www.eggheads.org/). It may be  a bit harder to learn live with, but it also offers somewhat more sophisticated means of making an IRC bot.

Actually, mIRC costs money after 30 days...

I found a guide I wrote about 5 years ago when I was still beginner in all programming. It is in an abandoned site, but it can be still read.

There must be far better guides somewhere, but I guess you can dig em out yourself.

Weird, it said that in the help file somewhere. Anyways, uhhh... New problem. mIRC doesn't start for me. It just doesn't come, and when I open up the Task Manager, the process for mirc.exe pops up for a second and then just goes away.
