Pipsqueek is a fork of the Pipsqueek Project.

PipSqueek is an automaton or 'bot' for IRC (Internet Relay Chat). Most IRC bots you will find are designed for protecting a channel from hostile takeovers or flooding. This is not the sort of work PipSqueek is meant to be doing (although it is flexible enough to support it).

PipSqueek was created to be a sort of 'channel pet' for IRC channels. This means it will keep notes of the users, store stats and quotes, and try to be as helpful as possible without being in the way. Many IRC users live and swear by the "PipSqueek way of life" :-)

See the other forks for more information there.

The original PipSqueek is written by Shaun Guth. This fork is maintained by Xyon for my own purposes, really, to hold my custom modules within the codebase and make my life easier setting the bot back up.
