<!-- Process this file with docbook-to-man to generate an nroff manual
     page: `docbook-to-man manpage.sgml > manpage.1'.  You may view
     the manual page with: `docbook-to-man manpage.sgml | nroff -man |
     less'.  A typical entry in a Makefile or Makefile.am is:

manpage.1: manpage.sgml

        The docbook-to-man binary is found in the docbook-to-man package.
        Please remember that if you create the nroff version in one of the
        debian/rules file targets (such as build), you will need to include
        docbook-to-man in your Build-Depends control field.

    <title>DESCRIPTION</title>

    <para><command>&dhpackage;</command> is a robust, user-friendly,
     and programmer-friendly Python IRC bot.  It aims to be an adequate
     replacement for most existing IRC bots.  It includes a very
     flexible and poerful ACL system for controlling access to
     commands, as well as more than 50 builtin plugins providing
     around 400 actual commands.
