Starting with this commit, there should be no "original" text in READMEs. Instead, the entire text should be in docstrings, and READMEs should be automatically generated from these docstrings. Motivation: * The same help is available both via IRC and in the README (although the README can be more detailed, as only the first paragraph will be shown on IRC) * This will allow auto-generating plugin help on docs.limnoria.net using the same content as the README, as it's sourced from the docstrings Additionally, this converts all READMEs from Markdown to ReST, because the documentation already uses ReST, and other docstrings in the codebase are in ReST for this reason.

Documentation for the Admin plugin for Supybot
Purpose
These are commands useful for administrating the bot; they all require their caller to have the 'admin' capability. This plugin is loaded by default.
Usage
This plugin provides access to administrative commands, such as adding capabilities, managing ignore lists, and joining channels. This is a core Supybot plugin that should not be removed!
Commands
- acmd <command> [<arg> ...]
-
Perform <command> (with associated <arg>s on all channels on current network.
- capability add <name|hostmask> <capability>
-
Gives the user specified by <name> (or the user to whom <hostmask> currently maps) the specified capability <capability>
- capability remove <name|hostmask> <capability>
-
Takes from the user specified by <name> (or the user to whom <hostmask> currently maps) the specified capability <capability>
- channels takes no arguments
-
Returns the channels the bot is on.
- clearq takes no arguments
-
Clears the current send queue for this network.
- ignore add <hostmask|nick> [<expires>]
-
This will set a persistent ignore on <hostmask> or the hostmask currently associated with <nick>. <expires> is an optional argument specifying when (in "seconds from now") the ignore will expire; if it isn't given, the ignore will never automatically expire.
- ignore list takes no arguments
-
Lists the hostmasks that the bot is ignoring.

This will remove the persistent ignore on <hostmask> or the hostmask currently associated with <nick>.

Tell the bot to join the given channel. If <key> is given, it is used when attempting to join the channel.
- nick [<nick>] [<network>]
-
Changes the bot's nick to <nick>. If no nick is given, returns the bot's current nick.
