14:59.01dyfhello.. i don't know much about scripting, i'm a beginner in C programming.. i would like to know enough scripting to write custom channel bots.. is there a place for me to start/refer to?

15:23.23dyfso any tips on how to start?
15:23.34dyfi asked #freenode and they told me to ask here
15:23.35dyf:/
15:25.24troubleddyf: you want to write one in C?
15:25.58dyftroubled, it doesn't really matter, but i prefer python because i assume it would be easier to maintain
15:27.15troubledwell, I guess you can either wait for someone that knows of a python lib to do handle the connections to speak up, or you can go to the python channel and ask them
15:27.24dyftroubled, i'm not really much of a programmer, what i ultimately want to do is create a channel and have a simple bot that i can play with to do certain things
15:27.46troubledwell, if you just want existing bot code, im sure there is plenty out there
15:28.00dyfthere is?
15:28.08dyfi should probably get one then and start using it
15:28.18troubledeggdrops are C/tcl and are popular. we use perl bot called infobot here as well
15:28.37troubleddepends what kind of a bot you are after I guess
15:28.57troubledevery bot is going to have different features and have varying levels of polish though
15:29.08dyfi want it to do google search for a start
15:29.23dyfthen i can extend its features
15:29.37dyfi'll look into eggdrops
15:29.53troubledif you know C, its probably a good bet
15:30.06troubledalthough, its scripted via TCL
15:30.12dyfyeah, all i know is C and Assembly
15:30.26dyfi was going to get a crash course at python if i have to design a bot using it
15:30.34troubledwell, if you know C & asm, then you should have no problem modifying an egg
15:30.51dyfthanks a lot troubled
15:30.59troublednp, have fun
15:31.05dyfyou 2 :)
