[Jaimbot-developers] Questions

[Wolfgang R. <wri...@at...>]

Whoever is out there and can answer my questions please feel free to 
reply!  I just have a couple basic questions (and a couple other 
ones...).  OK, I was wondering if the Bot automatically re-connects, 
cause I *think* I've had it get stuck on the socket/crash and not 
re-connect...which was VERY annoying, as I had yet to figure out the 
megahaladmin save command :).  I suppose, as with all things learning 
this will take time.  My question is for this, if I wait long enough 
should the bot re-connect? I know I'm not giving much information, and I 
will if requested....well first I have to re-create what happens. 

How am I supposed to get the bot to save all its information? Persist?  
And how should I shut it down?  I know when it got the socket thing, and 
logged off I coulnd't save the information, did a ctrl-c restarted it 
and all users gone etc.  BTW I found persist as I was looking throught 
source code (not well documented? at least I couldn't find anything on 
saving settings...maybe I'm just blind)....as I said I'm still 
learning.  So, should I just very often do persist and megahaladmin save...

When adding a user that has spaces in his screename, should I just leave 
the spaces out?

Thanks for the best open source bot for AIM I could find!  The best 
thing is it runs on all platforms! Great job!  This is the EXACT thing I 
was looking for before! I had tried to code my own, using an ALICE bot 
and Perl for most of the coding...it worked but it wasn't very 
intelligent.  THen I switched to a modular design, and started adding 
commands etc., then I found this...and I was blown away - I especially 
like multi-platform capabilities!

Thanks for allowing downloads of source code as well!
