blammo

Blammo has been my pet project for a little while.
It started off when myself, SurJeON and `ruiner` were talking about how cool it would be to have a real-time MircStats program, and we decided that a bot that logged all the channel activity and gave statistics on it would be interesting.
`ruiner` coded his own bot, I coded my own, and SurJeON coded his own. I'm the only one obnoxious enough to leave his in #trout all the time.
it soon became clear that all the !randomquote stuff is very spamful; I should probably remove it. I always wanted a web frontend to all that sorta stuff, probably written in PHP. I might have a go at that myself when I get my linux box sorted out and get cable modem so I can properly host.

however, blammo does have some useful functions; he does reminders (!remind) and spell checking (!spell) via the DICT protocol to www.dict.org.
As of the early hours of the 20th August 2000 :) he also will SMS reminders to you, using my lycos thingy. Neat, huh?
i'm sure i'll carry on working on blammo in the future.

The blammo source Blammo is written in Java. Updated 01:57 20/08/00 to support SMS
The SQL script to create the database. I used MySQL; I use some MySQL-specific functions in the code. Good luck porting it to run on another RDBMS.
In order to run blammo you need to set the 'Sec' property to your password.
(eg java -DSec="This is my password" TestIRC irc.thedbs.com)
good luck, if you have any queries, mail me. I'd like to be credited in any usage you get out of the source.
