Summary: ElizaLovesYou - Chatbot::Eliza plugin
Initial Comment:
ElizaLovesYou hooks the Chatbot::Eliza module from CPAN
into Gaim, letting your friends solve all their
problems according to the old Eliza algorithm. The
plugin will effectively take over all signed-on
accounts for now, but you can still add your own
comments. Be careful not to get rate-limited on AIM -
Eliza responds instantly.
You'll need to install Chatbot::Eliza from CPAN before
this will work. Note that most of the credit should
probably go to the writer of Chatbot::Eliza as it
implements the actual Eliza algorithm - I just hooked
it into Gaim. Run 'perl -MCPAN -e "shell"' and answer
the questions, then type 'install Chatbot::Eliza' at
the prompt. That should do it! Windows users, I wish
you luck.

I'm trying to install this plugin under windows, but I get
to the part where you use the command "Install
Chatbot::Eliza" and am told "Searching for 'Chatbot::Eliza'
returned no results. Try a broader search first."
What am I supposed to do?

well, i didn't have the lizard icon, i had some little yellow ball,
and just redownloaded and installed active perl, and got the
lizard icon and it worked, but i don't think this one works
with .81 because it isn't in my plugin list any more, though i
may just be having the same problem again

I have the same problem with windoze.
I have ActivePerl installed, and it is properly associated with
the *.pl file types, as seen by their icons (they appear to be
a lizard).
However, the eliza plugin does not want to show up in the
plugins section of GAIM preferences.
Could you please outline in detail all of what you did to get
the thing to work spam?
Thanks,
Alexei

okay, so upon further investigation i noticed that none of the
perl plugins i had downloaded had worked, i just installed
the .dll versions and never realized there may be something
wrong so i am now re-installing activeperl and hoping that it
will work.....
and it did!! hooray now all the perl plugins i installed seem to
work!
now that i use it, i think it would be sweet if you could add
an option to have it work for single accounts not every single
one

I have active pearl, and i did download it into the plugins
folder, i have many other pearl plugins running for gaim
I ran gaim -d and it didn't give me any errors relatign to eliza
this is what i go:
plugins: probing
C:\ProgramFiles\Gaim\plugins\elizalovesyou.pl
it doesn't give any errors afterwards
but it still doesn't have any option for it in the preferences

Spam3234,
If you are running windows, Do you have ActivePerl
installed? I could see that you could have a problem of it
registering if it can't execute it.
Also, make sure you put it in the plugins directory, there
will be other plugins in the same directory. They are all
.dll files, and just put the .pl file with them.

Spam3234, are you on Windows? The proper install path there
may be dependent on where you installed Gaim; I'm not really
familiar with WinGaim. If not (Linux, etc.), where'd you put
the plugin? It should go in ~/.gaim/plugins , and then it'll
show up in preferences as ElizaLovesYou. It works fine for
me in 0.80...you could run gaim -d and let me know if there
are any errors when the plugin gets scanned when Gaim loads.

Update - Version 0.2
I've added a delay in the bot's response so that it's a bit
less prone to rate-limiting (and less freakishly fast...this
also fixes the bug where the bot's replies will appear ABOVE
the original messages). Unfortunately, Gaim will segfault if
you unload the plugin while there are messages waiting to be
sent - if you are really getting messages at that rate, a)
let me know so I work on this more often and b) sign off and
wait one second (the message delay) before unloading the
plugin. Maybe I'll randomize the delay in the future -
message me at t3hroxor on AIM and tell me what you think or
if you have any other suggestions.

Installing on Windows is pretty easy.
1.) Install ActivePerl (http://www.activestate.com)
2.) Open "Perl Package Manager" (windoze version of CPAN)
3.) Type "Install Chatbot::Eliza"
4.) Copy the elizalovesyou.pl script to "C:\Program
Files\Gaim\plugins"
5.) Startup GAIM and initialize the plugin
