Valentin Lorentz 833af36b08 all plugins: auto-generate READMEs 
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 Limiter plugin for Supybot

Purpose

This plugin sets channel limits (MODE +l) based on plugins.Limiter.MaximumExcess plus the current number of users in the channel. This is useful to prevent flood attacks.

Usage

In order to use this plugin, its config values need to be properly setup. supybot.plugins.Limiter.enable needs to be set to True and supybot.plugins.Limiter.{maximumExcess,minimumExcess} should be set to values appropriate to your channel (if the defaults aren't satisfactory). Once these are set, and someone enters/leaves the channel, Supybot will start setting the proper +l modes.

Configuration

supybot.plugins.Limiter.enable

This config variable defaults to "False", is network-specific, and is channel-specific.

Determines whether the bot will maintain the channel limit to be slightly above the current number of people in the channel, in order to make clone/drone attacks harder.

supybot.plugins.Limiter.maximumExcess

This config variable defaults to "10", is network-specific, and is channel-specific.

Determines the maximum number of free spots that will be saved when limits are being enforced. This should always be larger than supybot.plugins.Limiter.limit.minimumExcess.

supybot.plugins.Limiter.minimumExcess

This config variable defaults to "5", is network-specific, and is channel-specific.

Determines the minimum number of free spots that will be saved when limits are being enforced. This should always be smaller than supybot.plugins.Limiter.limit.maximumExcess.

supybot.plugins.Limiter.public

This config variable defaults to "True", is not network-specific, and is not channel-specific.

Determines whether this plugin is publicly visible.
