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 Dunno plugin for Supybot
Purpose
The Dunno module is used to spice up the reply when given an invalid command with random 'I dunno'-like responses. If you want something spicier than '<x> is not a valid command'-like responses, use this plugin. Like Success does for the 'The operation succeeded.' reply.
Usage
This plugin was written initially to work with MoobotFactoids, the two of them to provide a similar-to-moobot-and-blootbot interface for factoids. Basically, it replaces the standard 'Error: <x> is not a valid command.' messages with messages kept in a database, able to give more personable responses.
Commands
- add [<channel>] <text>
-
Adds <text> to the dunno database for <channel>. <channel> is only necessary if the message isn't sent in the channel itself.
- change [<channel>] <id> <regexp>
-
Changes the dunno with id <id> according to the regular expression <regexp>. <channel> is only necessary if the message isn't sent in the channel itself.
- get [<channel>] <id>
-
Gets the dunno with id <id> from the dunno database for <channel>. <channel> is only necessary if the message isn't sent in the channel itself.
- remove [<channel>] <id>
-
Removes the dunno with id <id> from the dunno database for <channel>. <channel> is only necessary if the message isn't sent in the channel itself.
- search [<channel>] [--{regexp,by} <value>] [<glob>]
-
Searches for dunnos matching the criteria given.
- stats [<channel>]
-
Returns the number of dunnos in the database for <channel>. <channel> is only necessary if the message isn't sent in the channel itself.
