Bobot++ 2.1.8 Released

Item posted by Clinton Ebadi <unknown_lamer> on Wed 29 Jun 2005 08:27:05 PM UTC.

Bobot++ 2.1.8 has been released. This release is a fairly major release as it contains a number of feature enhancements and bug fixes. The highlights are: more consistent Scheme API, more Scheme documentation, and a better debugger for scripts.

Full NEWS entry:
- Scripting
+ Hooks
    * Added bot:protection/[none|ban|kick|deop] and bot:aop/[yes|no]
      constants to the Scheme scripting interface
    * hooks/timer argument is now zero padded instead of space padded
      (e.g. "11:01" instead of "11: 1")
    * hooks/disconnect is now called when the bot is disconnected from the
      server unintentionally (network connection timeout, server died,
      etc.)
    * hooks/action is now passed the user's nick instead of the full
      address like all other hooks
+ Message Sending
    * Implemented bot:notice
    * bot:msg and bot:say may both send to channels and users (instead
      of bot:msg for users and bot:say for channels)
    * Renamed bot:send-CTCP to bot:send-ctcp
    * Added bot:send-ctcp-reply to send a ctcp-reply
+ Misc
    * Added (bobotpp bot) module that modules may use to gain access
      to the bobot++ functions
+ Debugging
    * The debugging evaluator is now enabled when --debug is passed to
      the bot
    * New command line option: --debug-scripts enabled the debugging
      evaluator while running everything else normally
    * Merged error handling patch from Dale Smith. This adds detailed
      errors and backtraces when --debug/--debug-scripts is passed to
      Bobot++.
- Documentation
+ Merged documentation patch from Dale Smith (thanks)
- Misc
+ NOTICEs and PRIVMSGs are now sent correctly if they contain an
    embedded newline
+ Max nick length is now configurable via 'maxnicklength' option in
    bot.conf (defaults to 9)
- The bot now builds with --disable-scripting again (this is my fault,
I haven't built without it in a long time)
