Quotegrabs

About

PBot can grab user messages and store/recall them for posterity. This document describes the Quotegrabs plugin.

Commands

grab

Grabs a message someone says, and adds it to the quotegrabs database. You may grab multiple nicks/messages in one quotegrab by separating the arguments with a plus sign (the nicks need not be different you can grab multiple messages by the same nick by specifying a different history for each grab).

You can use the recall command to test the arguments before grabbing (please use a private message).

Usage: grab <nick> [history [channel]] [+ ...] where [history] is an optional argument regular expression used to search message contents; e.g., to grab a message containing the text “pizza”, use: grab nick pizza
