### Quick-start command
|
||||
|
||||
At this point, you may start PBot if you wish. The default settings will connect
|
||||
to the Freenode IRC network. Or you may read on to the next section for more
|
||||
advanced configuration.
|
||||

At minimum, the registry key `irc.botnick` must be set before PBot will connect
|
||||
to any IRC servers. Here we will use the cloned data-directory `coolbot` named
|
||||
after the botnick we'll use.
|
||||
|

$ pbot data_dir=coolbot irc.botnick=coolbot

### Edit Registry

||||
|
||||
PBot configuration is stored in a registry of key/value pairs grouped by sections.
