@ -165,6 +165,25 @@ Q: How do I make my Supybot connect to multiple servers?
A: Just use the "connect" command in the Owner plugin. Easy as pie!
Q: I've edited my configuration file, but my Supybot doesn't notice
the changes! Even if I restart it, it doesn't see them. What's
the deal?
A: Supybot won't reload its configuration files unless you tell it
to. In addition, when Supybot exits (and periodically while it
runs) it flushes its configuration file to disk. The safest way
to avoid problems with configuration file edits is simply to exit
the bot before editing the configuration file(s). If you don't
wish to do that, however, you can edit the file, save the changes,
and tell the bot to reload its configuration, either via the
reload command in the Config plugin, or by sending the bot a
SIGHUP. There is a brief period in this whole sequence where the
bot can flush its configuration to disk after you write your
changes, but we even have something to fix that: set the
configuration variable supybot.flush to False, and then reload the
configuration.
Q: I found a bug, what do I do?
A: Submit it on Sourceforge through our Sourceforge project page:
