NetChatLink
http://netchatlink.sourceforge.net/
NetChatLink is a small application that links chats across multiple DC hubs
and IRC channels. It includes support for the ADC protocol, IRC channel
keys, chat filtering, per-user settings, op commands, and more. It is a
fork of MyIrcDcLinks by Burek.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Quick start:
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
When you open the program, you will see a few tabs. To add a connection, go
to the Hub/IRCs tab and click the 'New' button. Configure the connection the
way you want. Hit the 'Update' button to save your changes. Do the same for
any other connections. The connection you are updating will disconnect to
apply the settings.
The 'User Control' button opens up a control panel where you can modify
permissions of users. In the 'Static' tab you can block PMs and mainchat
messages from users, as well as allow them to control the bot with commands.
These entries will be saved to a file. In the dynamic tab you will see users
that the bot has determined are bots or OPs. Bots are blocked from
communicating with this bot. Here you can also specify if the local OPs are
allowed to control this bot with commands or not. If you click the
'Override' button, you will be able to add that user to the 'Static' list
and specify different options for them. These modifications are done in
realtime, there's no need to update the connection after.
The 'Connection Script' button (on the IRC tab) allows you to add custom
commands you want the bot to execute when it connects to the server. For
example, if the channel has a NickServ, you might want to send an 'IDENTIFY'
to it to sign in. You can also include the connection properties in the
script (nick, password, etc). Click the '?' button on the form
for more info.
Use the 'Filtered Words' tab to add words you want the bot to filter out.
Add words one word per line and hit the 'Save' button. The filtered words
will be replaced with *s when the bot relays the message.
Hit the 'Connect All' button to initiate connections to all of the enabled
hubs/IRCs that you added. Be sure to check out the debug tab to see if
everything is working properly. The status lights will turn green when the
bot is properly connected to the hub/IRC.
When the bot is connected to a hub/IRC, authorized users can control it via
text-based commands. To see a list of commands, send a PM of '.help' to the
bot. Unauthorized users will receive an error message.

Final notes
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
This project is a fork of Burek's now-inactive project MyIrcDcLinks.
This project is the result of me using his codebase, fixing a few bugs, and
adding features such as ADC support, IRC channel keys, custom OP lists, and
a few other things.
Hopefully you put it to good use.
