CONFIGURATION FILES¶
The
bot.conf configuration file needs to be present in the current
directory and is the only mandatory configuration file. You can override this
behaviour with the
-f and
-d flags.
Other configuration files that
bobot++ will look for are
bot.users
which contains the userlist, and
bot.shit which contains the shitlist.
Also,
bot.init contains a list of aliases that the bot will recognize,
bot.help is the customizable help file for the different bot commands,
and
bot.autoexec is a Guile Scheme script that will be loaded at launch
time, which you can use to load other scripts, or create new aliases, commands
and hooks.
On the Debian distribution, configuration examples can be found in the
/usr/share/doc/bobot++/examples/ directory.
