Modem over IRC for OpenComputers

Allows to create a bridge using the IRC server. Messages from an IRC server converts into a signal 'modem_message'.

The signal from the server looks like this:

localAddress: string, remoteAddress: string, source: string, distance: number, message: string

If the message is received from the channel, then: imodem.nick, sender_nickname, #channel_name, 0, message

if a private message is received from an user: imodem.nick, sender_nickname, imodem.nick, 0, message

imodem.server :string - IRC server address to which library are connecting (default 'irc.esper.net')

imodem.port :number - IRC server port (default 6667)

imodem.channel :string - Server channel to which want to connect. If set to nil, only imodem.send() can be used. If the connection occurred without specifying a channel, can connect by setting the channel and calling imodem.connect() or imodem.send_raw('JOIN #channel')

imodem.nick :string - Bot nickname, generated based on the internet card address.

imodem.isOnline() :boolean - Return value - is there a connection to the server.

imodem.connect() :boolean - Сonnects to the server.

imodem.disconnect() :boolean - Disconnects from the server.

imodem.send_raw(data: string) :boolean - Send data at IRC protocol level.

imodem.broadcast(data: string) :boolean - Send message to current channel.

imodem.send(target: string, data: string) :boolean - Send a message to the channel or user that are specified in target.
