<p><strong>Features of Eggdrop</strong></p>

<hr>
<p>Eggdrop is the most advanced IRC robot available. It has been under
development since December 1993, and unlike most other bots, it is still
regularly updated. Some of its features include:</p>
<blockquote>
<ul>
<li><p>Completely separate channel user lists like having a separate
bot for each channel.</p></li>
<li><p>A "party line" available through dcc chat or telnet,
with multiple channels, giving you the ability to talk to people
without being affected by netsplits.</p></li>
<li><p>A "botnet". A botnet consists of one or more
bots linked together. This can allow bots to op each other
securely, control floods efficiently, and share user lists, ban
lists, exempt/invite lists, and ignore lists (if sharing is
enabled).</p></li>
<li><p>User records are saved on disk and alterable via dcc chat.
Each user can have a password (encrypted), a list of valid hostmasks,
a set of access flags, etc.</p></li>
<li><p>The ability to "learn" new users (if you choose to
let the bot do so) by letting users /MSG the bot "hello".
The bot will grant them automatic access of whatever type you
specify (or even no access at all).</p></li>
<li><p>A file system where users can upload and download files in an
environment that looks and acts (for the most part) like a typical
UNIX system. It also has the ability to mark files and directories
as hidden -- unaccessible to people without certain user
flags.</p></li>
<li><p>Console mode: you can view each channel through dcc chat or
telnet, selectively looking at mode changes, joins and parts, channel
talk, or any combination of the above.</p></li>
<li><p>A scripting language: commands and features can be easily
added to the bot by means of the Tcl scripting language, giving you
the power of TOTAL customization of your bot.</p></li>
<li><p>Module support: you can remove/add features to your bot by
adding or removing modules.</p></li>
</ul>
</blockquote>
<p><strong>NOTE:</strong></p>
<blockquote>
<p>This bot is NOT intended for users of very limited MEMORY or DISK
shell accounts. The development of this latest design of Eggdrop is
geared towards features and flexibility.</p>
