irc, bots
Most IRC users have seen IRC bots on channels, which automate messages, do flood and revolving door protection and stuff like that. Some have seen IRC bots host games like trivia or IdleRPG, and some have seen them offer a bank of factoids. IRC bots are simply programs that connect to an IRC server like a client and do automated tasks. They (usually) have no GUI, most tend to run in the background, detached from any screen.

I recently drew myself up in an interesting situation;
- I support KVIrc actively, and translate it to Finnish
- I also am the developer of t2i, a little project ignited when I wanted to know how it was like to create an IRC client
- I also recently put my regular IRC connection to a screen&irssi session on a remote shell server after the ##linux (freenode) admin "savetheWorld" asked me to fix my famous wreck of a connection.
So in short: I develop a client, translate another and use a third one. I wonder how I got rounded up into this.

Here's a way of renaming your channel on IRC, I'd use this if I ever had to rename #linux to something else:
- Register the new channel with ChanServ
- Run: /mode <#oldchannel> +lL 1 <#newchannel>
- Leave one user in <#oldchannel> to enforce +lL
Now anyone who would join <#oldchannel> would join <#newchannel> instead. Cool eh?

So, you have been in IRC for a while, and now perhaps wondering that how is this working, how does the client interact?
