As such, it has not been -tested on other networks. Some IRC features, such as NickServ auto-join, may need adjusting. --------------------------- -The first thing you'll want to do is edit pbot.pl and change the default -settings: - - * If you did not extract/checkout PBot into ~/pbot (where ~/pbot/PBot -contains the PBot.pm module), you'll want to change $pbothome in pbot.pl -to point to the directory that contains the PBot, config, data, etc directories. - - * Change the IRC settings in pbot.pl so that the bot-nick and identify password are -associated with a registered NickServ account, if you want channel auto-join to succeed. --------------------------- -Then you'll need to get several modules from CPAN.
