What do I need?
Since this is not a normal bot, but a services bot, you will need the following:
  • A P.C with any UN*X Operating System or Win32
  • ircu2.10.01 or better
  • TCL library 7.6 or better(8.0p2 recomended)
Instalation
This is a beta program, so don't expect not to have any trouble with it, but anyways, it's still stable enough to be considered seriously as a service bot.
The configuration is quite easy, and compilation even more, just read the README files included and put the c/n/h/u lines in the ircd.conf
