IRK 0.01, 02/07/2002 This is the first release of IRK. What's implemented: * Connection management. * Integrated support for SOCKS5 to get through firewalls. * Rudimentary flow control and queueing. Needs more work. * Ping, MOTD, and informational messages management. * Channel and nick management. * Users on channels tracking. * CTCP and all its subcommands. * Special CTCP TCL protocol for communication between IRKs. All Tcl code received from remote IRKs is run in a safe interpreter. * Generalized persistent authorization and password management mechanism. * Two usage examples: + tontalou.tcl: a "bot" modelled after SmallSaints on DalNet. This bot is unfinished. + fortunebot.tcl: a "bot" that demonstrates grabbing a page from the web and presenting its information in IRC. Unfortunately no documentation is provided for these bots but they do provide excellent examples on how you can use IRK to write Tcl "bots".
