1 2006-09-09 Giuseppe Bilotta <giuseppe.bilotta@gmail.com>
3 * New Auth Framework: rbot was opping anyone who asked for it (opme
4 plugin). Fixed, and cleaned up.
6 2006-09-01 Giuseppe Bilotta <giuseppe.bilotta@gmail.com>
8 * New Auth Framework: document and fine tune permissions view the auth
10 * Version: when run from a svn checkout, the bot now tries to report
11 which svn revision it's at, and if there are local changes
13 2006-08-31 Giuseppe Bilotta <giuseppe.bilotta@gmail.com>
15 * Nickserv plugin: bot will now try to inform nickserv when password
16 is changed. Moreover it's not necessary to specify the nick anymore if
17 you want to change the password for the current bot nick. Also do some
18 internal cleanups while we're at it.
20 2006-08-29 Giuseppe Bilotta <giuseppe.bilotta@gmail.com>
22 * Script plugin: new (UNSAFE!) echo functions. Just like eval, but
23 m.replies the result of the evaluation.
24 * New Auth Framework: config keys now have their own permissions. So
25 you can allow people to view or edit only some of the config values.
26 auth.password defaults to false. Still needs some work.
28 2006-08-26 Giuseppe Bilotta <giuseppe.bilotta@gmail.com>
30 * Plugin message mapper: new implementation. Multi-word parameters now
31 need not be the last, and it is possible to retrieve the entire
32 substring with preserved whitespace by using to_s. Also, parts of the
33 map string can be bracketed to make them optional. Examples:
34 remind :user [about] *stuff
36 remind me about washing my teeth
38 remind me washing my teeth
39 It is possible to have parameters in brackets, in which case they will
40 be optional too, and default to nil or [] (resp. single- and
41 multi-word parameters) unless an alternative is provided in the
42 :defaults hash for the message map options.
43 * Script plugin: new (UNSAFE!) eval function. Not documented in help.
44 Not permitted by default.
46 2006-08-25 Mark Kretschmann <markey@web.de>
48 * Added quiz plugin, a multiplayer trivia quiz game.
50 2006-08-20 Giuseppe Bilotta <giuseppe.bilotta@gmail.com>
52 * Topic plugin: fix a bug that prevented it from loading
54 * New IRC Framework: make sure that NOTICEs and PRIVMSGs do not
55 raise an exception when the target is in one of the special forms
56 #<mask> or $<mask>. Needs some work, though, since this case should be
59 2006-08-17 Giuseppe Bilotta <giuseppe.bilotta@gmail.com>
61 * Fix help: It got broken while rearranging the plugin stuff, now it's
63 * New Auth Framework: forgot to create the InvalidPassword exception.
64 It's a RuntimeError now.
65 * Fix help: this time for real (or so I hope).
66 * New IRC Framework: topic plugin now works correctly.
67 * New Auth Framework: nickserv plugin now defaults to false for its
68 auth, so that only owner can do stuff with it
69 * New Auth Framework: fix horrible typo, assignment instead of
70 equality test when checking for the username during login.
71 * Keywords plugin: tell and forget work again without 'keyword' before
74 2006-08-12 Giuseppe Bilotta <giuseppe.bilotta@gmail.com>
76 * Subregistry: force prefix to be a String with to_s
78 2006-08-11 Giuseppe Bilotta <giuseppe.bilotta@gmail.com>
80 * AutoOp plugin: adapted to the new IRC framework.
81 * AutoOp plugin: trigger autoop on nick change too.
82 * New Auth Framework: allow? method now informs a user when they don't
83 have permission to do what they asked for.
84 * New nickreply and nickokay methods: they act like the old reply
85 method, but include the nick of the user the bot is replying to when
86 talking in public. The usual reply method can be configured to act
89 2006-08-10 Giuseppe Bilotta <giuseppe.bilotta@gmail.com>
91 * Fix a bug in new IRC Framework: the list of channels a quitting user was
92 on was not built correctly, causing an exception when the user was not
93 in the first channel in the list of channels.
94 * Fix a bug in new Auth Framework: BotUser's name is changed via
96 * New HalfLife 2 plugin from ocr: queries online servers for online
97 status and number of users.
99 2006-08-07 Giuseppe Bilotta <giuseppe.bilotta@gmail.com>
101 * Add kick method to kernel: plugins can now use
102 @bot.kick channel, user, reason
103 to kick a user from a channel
104 * RSS plugin: fix rewatch_rss method
105 * RSS plugin: the different ways to represent channels before and
106 after the New IRC Framework was causing strange problems such as
107 watched feed not being listed as such, undeletable watches, double
108 watches etc. Fix this by checking both for the Channel objects and
109 their to_s form when checking for watches or deleting them.
111 2006-08-06 Giuseppe Bilotta <giuseppe.bilotta@gmail.com>
113 * Updating the ChangeLog again: describe the new stuff in trunk which
114 will be made available in the next release. Use Gnu style for new
115 changelog entries (yyyy-mm-dd name <email address>\n<tab> ...):
116 there's a macro for this since at least Vim 6.x and higher, called by
117 <Leader>o (default leader: slash (\))
118 * New IRC Framework: Server, Channels, User, Netmasks etc are all
119 proper Ruby objects. The better organization will allow multi-server
120 connections to be implemented more easily
121 * Modularize core: split the internal functionality from what can be
122 implemented as botmodules (which work just the same as plugins). Move
123 Configuration, Basics and Auth out of the 'kernel' into core
125 * New Auth Framework: BotUsers are now Ruby objects with attached
126 PermissionSets which define what the BotUser can do, by channel if
127 necessary. The new framework allows very fine-grained control while
128 still being very easy to manage for elementary usage. BotUser data can
129 be exported and imported, but no backwards compatibility has been
130 implemented yet. Most plugins still have to be updated to the new
131 command-path-based mechanism.
133 Sun Aug 06 17:33:55 BST 2006 Tom Gilbert <tom@linuxbrit.co.uk>
136 * Changes: Lots of new and updated plugins, including one to poll RSS feeds.
137 A first step towards a better auth system (total revamp due in 0.9.11).
138 Improvements to network and server code which should provide greater
139 stability. A new message queueing mechanism with bitrate throttling. A new
140 logging framework for debugging and tracing the activities of the bot. A
141 new split-db registry system for better performance and transactional
142 usage of bdb for resilience. More integration with Nickserv where
143 available including optional automatic ghost-killing.
145 Wed Sep 07 20:16:46 BST 2005 Tom Gilbert <tom@linuxbrit.co.uk>
147 * Fixed quit, broke it last commit
148 * Fixed trap() for win32
150 Sun Aug 21 13:29:55 BST 2005 Tom Gilbert <tom@linuxbrit.co.uk>
152 * fix for bug in quakenet plugin (trac #14)
153 * multiple fixes for unescaped bot nick in regexp's (trac #13)
155 Fri Aug 12 20:51:38 BST 2005 Tom Gilbert <tom@linuxbrit.co.uk>
157 * fix up autoop plugin a bit
159 Thu Aug 11 00:13:11 BST 2005 Tom Gilbert <tom@linuxbrit.co.uk>
161 * Added two plugins from Robin Kearney <robin@riviera.org.uk>
162 * Threat (US threat level :P)
163 * bash (bash.org quotes)
165 Thu Aug 11 00:04:31 BST 2005 Tom Gilbert <tom@linuxbrit.co.uk>
167 * Patches from "Alexey I. Froloff" <raorn@altlinux.ru>
168 * Do not use "/home/#{Etc.getlogin}/" for default home directory, use
169 "#{Etc.getpwnam(Etc.getlogin).dir}/" instead.
170 * Do not try to load same plugin from different locations. Added ability
171 to disable system-wide plugins - create PLUGIN.rb.disabled in user's
173 * For example, to disable freshmeat plugin installed in /usr/share/rbot/plugins/freshmeat.rb one can create empty file ~/.rbot/plugins/freshmeat.rb.disabled
175 Mon Aug 08 23:08:01 BST 2005 Tom Gilbert <tom@linuxbrit.co.uk>
177 * new markov plugin for random inane chat
179 Sun Aug 07 18:20:24 BST 2005 Tom Gilbert <tom@linuxbrit.co.uk>
181 * stop insult plugin being used to insult the bot
183 Sun Aug 07 17:53:06 BST 2005 Tom Gilbert <tom@linuxbrit.co.uk>
185 * workaround for people without YAML::load_file
186 * quit message for restart
188 Sun Aug 07 15:11:07 BST 2005 Tom Gilbert <tom@linuxbrit.co.uk>
190 * fix address_prefix, broken in 0.9.9, reported by ruskie.
192 Sat Aug 06 00:54:34 BST 2005 Tom Gilbert <tom@linuxbrit.co.uk>
196 Fri Aug 05 23:55:20 BST 2005 Tom Gilbert <tom@linuxbrit.co.uk>
198 * few more tweaks preparing to release 0.9.9
200 Thu Aug 04 23:03:30 BST 2005 Tom Gilbert <tom@linuxbrit.co.uk>
202 * Improved ircd recognition of rfc2812.rb
203 * de-string'd, de-cap'd rfc2812.rb, looks less shouty now
204 * moved the Q auth stuff (for quakenet) into a new qauth plugin (untested!)
205 * finish fixing the httputil
207 Thu Aug 04 00:11:52 BST 2005 Tom Gilbert <tom@linuxbrit.co.uk>
209 * Tweaked the debug() stuff a bit. Need to do this more cleanly really
210 * Added a fair bit of documentation for some of the new features
212 Wed Aug 03 15:25:07 BST 2005 Tom Gilbert <tom@linuxbrit.co.uk>
214 * Added french language file (TODO most of the plugins just talk english)
215 * The way the Enum configs were set up, it wasn't possible to add language
216 files to rbot at runtime (the directory was only scanned at startup). Now
217 you can set a values Proc, which is called to return a list of allowed
218 values whenever it's queried.
219 * Added Config module for determining where we were installed.
220 Unfortunately rubygems is a total whore in this regard, and I hope the
221 current hackery I have to do to support it becomes redundant in the
224 Wed Aug 03 00:31:41 BST 2005 Tom Gilbert <tom@linuxbrit.co.uk>
226 * Added Rakefile, tweaked gemspec
228 Tue Aug 02 16:27:36 BST 2005 Tom Gilbert <tom@linuxbrit.co.uk>
230 * Fixed the new http.proxy* settings, they work!
231 * Fixed a bug with auth-checking for the config module
234 Sun Jul 31 02:20:08 BST 2005 Tom Gilbert <tom@linuxbrit.co.uk>
236 * Updated docgen to generate rdoc again with the new repo structure
237 * added new restart command to the core bot, quits irc and reexecs the
238 bot, to pick up new code/libraries etc.
240 Sat Jul 30 22:33:36 BST 2005 Tom Gilbert <tom@linuxbrit.co.uk>
242 * Config items are now objects, various types are available.
243 * The config wizard will now use registered config items if :wizard is set
244 to true for those items. It will ask questions in the order they were
246 * The config module now works for doing runtime configuration.
249 Sat Jul 30 01:19:32 BST 2005 Tom Gilbert <tom@linuxbrit.co.uk>
251 * config module for configuring the running bot via IRC
252 * BotConfig.register method for various modules and any plugin to register
253 bot configuration which the new config module will expose for them.
254 * various other tweaks as I continue to refactor..
256 Fri Jul 29 13:07:56 BST 2005 Tom Gilbert <tom@linuxbrit.co.uk>
258 * Moved some stuff out of util.rb into the plugins that actually need
259 them. Those methods didn't belong in util as they were plugin-specific.
260 * moved a few more plugins to use map() where appropriate
261 * made the url plugin only store unique urls
263 Thu Jul 28 23:45:26 BST 2005 Tom Gilbert <tom@linuxbrit.co.uk>
265 * Reworked the Timer module. The Timer now has a smart thread manager to
266 start/stop the tick() thread. This means the timer isn't called every 0.1
267 seconds to see what needs doing, which is much more efficient
268 * reworked the ircsocket queue mechanism to use a Timer
269 * reworked the nickserv plugin to use maps
270 * made server.reconnect_wait configurable
271 * added Class tracing mechanism to bin/rbot, use --trace Classname for
274 Tue Jul 26 14:41:34 BST 2005 Tom Gilbert <tom@linuxbrit.co.uk>
276 * Prevent multiple plugin registrations of the same name
277 * reworking the config system to use yaml for persistence
278 * reworking the config system key names
279 * on first startup, the bot will prompt for the essential startup config
280 * new config module for configuring the bot at runtime
281 * new config module includes new configurables, for example changing the
282 bot's language at runtime.
283 * various other fixes
284 * New way of mapping plugins to strings, using maps. These may be
285 familiar to rails users. This is to reduce the amount of regexps plugins
286 currently need to do to parse arguments. The old method (privmsg) is still
287 supported, of course. Example plugin now:
288 def MyPlugin < Plugin
293 def complexfoo(m, params)
294 m.reply "qux! (#{params[:bar]} #{params[:baz]})"
297 plugin = MyPlugin.new
301 # this will match "rbot: foo somestring otherstring" and pass the
302 # parameters as a hash using the names in the map.
303 plugin.map 'foo :bar :baz', :action => 'complexfoo'
304 # this means :foo is an optional parameter
305 plugin.map 'foo :foo', :defaults => {:foo => 'bar'}
306 # you can also gobble up into an array
307 plugin.map 'foo *bar' # params[:bar] will be an array of string elements
308 # and you can validate, here the first param must be a number
309 plugin.map 'foo :bar', :requirements => {:foo => /^\d+$/}
312 Sat Jul 23 01:39:08 BST 2005 Tom Gilbert <tom@linuxbrit.co.uk>
314 * Changed BotConfig to use yaml storage, method syntax instead of hash for
315 get/set, to allow more flexibility and encapsulation
316 * Added convenience method Message.okay (m.okay is the same as the
317 old-style @bot.okay m.replyto)
319 Wed Jul 20 23:30:01 BST 2005 Tom Gilbert <tom@linuxbrit.co.uk>
321 * Move some core plugins to use the new httputil
322 * fix wserver's redirection handling for relative (i.e. broken) redirects
323 * fix tube plugin's html parsing
325 Wed Jul 20 01:18:06 BST 2005 Tom Gilbert <tom@linuxbrit.co.uk>
327 * Add new httputil object to the bot object, to be used by plugins etc
328 that wish to make http requests. It sets up all the proxies etc for them
329 according to bot config.
331 Sat Jul 16 02:23:13 BST 2005 Tom Gilbert <tom@linuxbrit.co.uk>
333 * Apply most of Rene's patch and fix various plugins.
334 * New plugin: autoop (auto ops via hostmask)
335 * New feature: karmastats
337 Wed Oct 13 16:16:31 BST 2004 Tom Gilbert <tom@linuxbrit.co.uk>
339 * Fix bug with quotes plugin where it gets confused and sees both a quote
340 and a keyword, both plugins are triggered by, for example "addquote foo is
342 * fixed this by implementing the "has_responded" flag on a message. When a
343 plugin replied to a message (or it manually sets m.replied to true), the
344 keywords plugin will honour that flag and not examine the message for
345 keywords. This flag can also be checked by listen plugins that don't want to
346 interfere with other plugin commands.
348 Mon Oct 11 00:37:52 BST 2004 Tom Gilbert <tom@linuxbrit.co.uk>
350 * Fixes to the NickServ plugin
352 Sat Oct 09 23:23:24 BST 2004 Tom Gilbert <tom@linuxbrit.co.uk>
356 Fri Oct 08 00:40:07 BST 2004 Tom Gilbert <tom@linuxbrit.co.uk>
358 * fixed insult plugin
359 * fixed excuse plugin
361 Thu Oct 07 23:28:05 BST 2004 Tom Gilbert <tom@linuxbrit.co.uk>
363 * searching for urls in the url plugin
364 * roshambo (rock/paper/scissors) plugin from Hans Fugal <hans@fugal.net>
366 Sat Apr 17 20:56:50 BST 2004 Tom Gilbert <tom@linuxbrit.co.uk>
368 * Oh, found new tv plugin in my inbox from ages ago, but it's still not
369 working so I guess it changed again since then
370 * New eightball plugin from Daniel Free
372 Sat Apr 17 20:44:43 BST 2004 Tom Gilbert <tom@linuxbrit.co.uk>
374 * Fixed the babelfish parser so translate works again.
376 * Note some plugins are broken (excuse,insult) because the server they use
377 went away. I don't know of a replacement right now.
378 * tv plugin seems broken, perhaps the html changed.
380 Thu Jan 15 21:37:38 GMT 2004 Tom Gilbert <tom@linuxbrit.co.uk>
385 * new plugin from Alan Third <alan@idiocy.org>, allows you to search and list
389 * various plugin updates
390 * fix (again) for C to F temp conversion in weather plugin
391 * channel topic patch from Peter Suschlik, gives plugin better access to topic
392 changes and related information
395 * changes to layout of slashdot plugin output
396 * freshmeat plugin, show latest updates or search
397 * fix to C to F temp conversion in weather plugin
398 * status command returns some bot status
400 * using BDB::Btree everywhere now, instead of BDB::Hash, because the Btree api
401 allows me to set my own key comparison function. This is needed to keep
402 supporting case insensitivity (vital for IRC), which was sadly broken in
403 0.9.5 :( All existing dbs will be upgraded automatically.
404 * roulette plugin - play russian roulette :) also keeps game stats.
405 * new config option, NO_KEYWORD_ADDRESS. If set to "true", the bot will always
406 respond to keywords it knows even when not addressed and the message doesn't
407 start with '. Message must end with "?" however.
408 * hopefully fixed welcome message parsing from certain server types
411 * plugin object registry
412 This provides persistant storage for plugins via a hash interface. The
413 default mode is an object store, so you can store ruby objects and reference
414 them with hash keys. This is because the default store/restore methods of
415 the plugins' RegistryAccessor are calls to Marshal.dump and Marshal.restore,
419 @registry[:blah] = blah
420 then, even after the bot is shut down and disconnected, on the next run you
421 can access the blah object as it was, with:
422 blah = @registry[:blah]
423 The registry can of course be used to store simple strings, fixnums, etc as
424 well, and should be useful to store or cache plugin data or dynamic plugin
427 If you don't need to store objects, and strictly want a persistant hash of
428 strings, you can override the store/restore methods to suit your needs, for
429 example (in your plugin):
440 Your plugins section of the registry is private, it has its own namespace
441 (derived from the plugin's class name, so change it and lose your data).
442 Calls to registry.each etc, will only iterate over your namespace.
444 The nickserv and karma plugins use the new registry and should serve as a
445 useful example. Basic usage of the registry is simple, just treat it as a
446 hash, with values that never die (unless you delete() them).
447 * Change to the nickserv plugin. The old method of putting the nickserv
448 password in rbot.conf was useless for multiple nicks or easy updates. The
449 plugin now uses the plugin registry to store passwords for any nicks it
450 owns. The plugin can be told to register the current nick (supply a password
451 or it'll generate one), identify for the current nick (if the password is
452 known), and can be told the passwords for other nicks. If NickServ asks the
453 bot to identify, it will automatically do so if it knows the appropriate
455 * karma plugin now uses the plugin registry, it should automatically import
456 your existing, stored karma data into the registry.
457 * The babelfish plugin now caches results in the bot registry to speed up
459 * New message types and plugin methods to grab them,
460 quit(QuitMessage): Called when a user (or the bot) quits IRC
461 nick(NickMessage): Called when a user (or the bot) changes Nick
462 topic(TopicMessage): Called when a user (or the bot) changes a channel topic
463 * A plugin's listen() method will now receive any kind of Message, e.g.
464 PrivMessage, NoticeMessage, NickMessage, JoinMessage, etc
466 seen: the usual "seen" stuff:
468 giblet was last seen xxx ago doing xxx
469 cal: calls the unix cal program to display a calendar
470 math: evaluates mathematical expressions:
472 rbot: math 4 to the power of 8
473 rbot: math ((232+432) - 4) / 2
474 (ported from infobot. Thanks to Kevin Lenzo, who wrote the
475 original infobot math module)
476 slashdot: displays latest headlines or searches for articles
477 url: stores urls mentioned in channels for regurgitation later
478 weather: grabs and parses METAR weather data, will remember the last weather
479 code you asked for so you don't have to :)
480 * New utility function, Util.http_get(url) for getting remote data via http,
481 just dumps response.body into a string and returns it, or nil if anything at
482 all goes wrong. Useful for simple plugins.
483 * random quit messages if none specified, messages set in language description
485 * keywords are now stored in bdb databases - your old keywords.rbot will be
486 imported. Static keywords (fact packs) are also stored in bdb databases, and
487 rbot will automatically convert any text .fact file dropped in the confdir's
488 keywords subdirectory, at startup, into a bdb file. If both a db and a text
489 file exist of the same name (except the extension), the text file will be
490 imported and merged into the database.
491 static keywords will be looked up in each factpack db in turn, in
492 alphabetical filename order - so you can prioritise using the filename if
494 * fixed a bug with autsplitting long sent lines, the last line was often being
498 * Massive cleanup of rfc2812.rb, contributed by Lars Christensen
499 <dsl8950@vip.cybercity.dk>, gets rid of a lot of regexps
500 * Fixed bug reading static keyword files - "foo <=is=> bar" may not have
501 worked for a couple of releases, only "foo<=is=>bar" was working - this was
502 not intended and should be fixed now
503 * Experimental send queue, to prevent the bot from flooding out, the delay
504 between sending messages to the server defaults to 2s, but is configurable
505 in conf.rbot, set SENDQ_DELAY (0 to disable queueing). You can also set/get
506 the value from the bot, "rbot: options get sendq_delay", and
507 "rbot: options set sendq_delay 1.5", if you have sufficient auth for "config"
508 This is a bursting sendq, most ircd's allow bursts of up to 5
509 lines, with non-burst limits of 512 bytes/2 seconds. To set the burst limit,
510 configure SENDQ_BURST in conf.rbot, or do the same kind of stuff with
511 "rbot: options set sendq_burst 2", etc.
512 The defaults are 2s/4 burst, which seem to work okay for me.
513 * support for multiple, customisable, addressing prefixes. Set ADDRESS_PREFIX
514 in conf.rbot to a space separate list of addressing prefixes, e.g
515 ADDRESS_PREFIX = | ! =>
516 Would mean that all of the following in channel messages would cause the bot
522 * bb plugin removed, bb is nearly over and it doesn't work 100% anyway
523 * Two plugins from brailsmt (from #ruby-lang on openprojects), a stats plugin
524 which monitors usage of 1-word sentences, and lart, which allows you to ask
525 rbot to lart people - with an optional reason - larts are user-definable and
526 can be added on the fly.
527 * made google.rb work for people with 1.6 ruby's net/http
532 * new plugin for handling nickserv-protected nicks, use NICKSERV_PASSWORD in
534 * fixes to a few other buglets
535 * new plugin to grab bigbrother headlines, still buggy and only useful for UK
536 folks who love bb :-)
537 * fixes to various plugins
538 * Patch from akira yamada <akira@ruby-lang.org>
539 DNS plugin: Use resolv-replace if found, do lookup in new thread
540 Fix bug joining channels with keys
544 * better "connect failure" error message
545 * better option parsing, and --debug option
546 * access to bot's online help via commandline, eg:
548 ./rbot.rb --help core
549 ./rbot.rb --help "core save"
550 * Fix broken help from last point release
551 * Plugin API modification and cleanup. You no longer need to set @listen to
552 true in order to get all NOTICE and PRIVMSGs, you just need to define the
553 method. The method is now called listen(), renamed from listener(). This
554 should be the last time the plugin api is changed incompatibly.
555 * New plugin method kick(). Use it to see kicks (duh :))
556 * New plugin methods join(), part(). Obvious uses.
557 * Example plugin autorejoin.rb, uses kick event to rejoin channel and insult
559 * fix bug in remind plugins "remind me no more" recognition.
563 * Fix welcome message recognition for certain IRCd's.
567 * Allow keyword definitions which end in '?', like this:
569 * rdoc documentation!
570 * fixed broken address regexp, "rbot: .foo" was being treated as an addressed
571 form of "foo" (lost the .)
572 * fix stupid bug in last release (looking for wrong default conf dir)
576 * Tarball layout change. modules all in rbot/ now, and the rbot/ default
577 configuration moved to rbotconf/. This lets the thing run from an unpacked
578 tarball while also being ready to run with the modules installed somewhere
580 * change hashbang to /usr/bin/env ruby, in order to use PATH looking for ruby,
582 * allow "botnick : foo" style addressing, and even "botnick... foo"
583 * slap plugin (contributed by oct)
584 * renamed bot.send to bot.sendmsg, I didn't really want to override send() ;D
588 * Made sane for packagers. Looks in the right places for plugins and language
589 files now, so extra effort shouldn't be needed there.
593 * Fixed "nick taken on join" bug
594 * Dice plugin patch from David Dorward
595 * fix searchquote regexp
596 * conf.rbot: PASSWORD -> SERVER_PASSWORD, to prevent confusion with PASSWD,
597 which is for master auth.
601 * Fixed addquote (was incrementing quote ID twice)
602 * now strips colour/bold escapes from incoming messages (rbot was ignoring
603 messages addressed using a bolded colon, for example).
605 * more language breadth
606 * Addressing works better now
607 * Can autojoin channels with keys, conf.rbot line is:
608 autojoin_channels #chan1, #chan2, #chan3 key, #chan4 key, #chan5
