a POE irc bot
Here's the source for the POE irc bot that I gave on the
Dutch Perl Workshop.
It consists of a bot that evolves in steps, each new step adding new
stuff.
bot1, does absolutely nothing except print debug
info to the console, and connecting to IRC.
bot2, is an extension of bot1, adding hooks
in channel messages and private messages, and doing DNS lookups.
bot3, is an extension to bot2. Not only
offers this DNS-lookups from IRC, it adds the reverse: DNS lookups
via IRC. It listens on port 53/udp for queries, and will ask
the IRC channel any question it receives, sending the answer back
to the DNS system.
