This is expected to take three commits to complete. This first initial
commit does the following:
- Begin initial rough-draft of doc/VirtualMachine.md
- Begin initial refactoring of scripts
The next commit will polish up the initial rough-draft and refactoring.
The final commit will quality-check everything and fix anything overlooked.
U+feff is now used instead of U+200b for nick-dehighlighting.
U+feff is non-breaking; it will not break-up the word when wrapping. It also
appears to be much more widely supported. In fact, some terminals will simply
strip the bytes -- this allows copying the text as-is, etc.
Additionally, an exclude-list was added to prevent dehighlighting of specific
nicknames. This is because several terminals do not fully support Unicode's
zero-width spaces -- they show up as plain spaces. Certain words for the #c
channel have been added to this exclude list since they are also somewhat
popular as nicknames there.
"Applet" is a much better name for the external command-line
scripts and programs that can be loaded as PBot commands. They
will no longer be confused with Perl modules.

PBot modules do not send the stderr stream to the channel. Instead, the output
is logged in <module-filename>-stderr, for private debugging purposes. PBot
expects output intended for channels to be on stdout.
