Summary     : World's most popular Open Source IRC bot
Description :
Eggdrop is the world's most popular Open Source IRC bot, designed
for flexibility and ease of use. It is extendable with Tcl scripts
and/or C modules, has support for the big five IRC networks and is
able to form botnets, share partylines and userfiles between bots.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Update Information:

Eggdrop v1.10.0
General changes
Added the new Tcl autoscripts capability. By loading the autoscripts Tcl script,
Eggdrop can automatically view, download and install Tcl scripts hosted by the
Eggheads team, all via the partyline! No modification of the config file needed.
Eggdrop can now use the account a user is logged into as an identification
method in the same manner that a hostmask does. For this feature to be fully
accurate, Eggdrop use a server with WHOX enabled and negotiate the extended-join
and account-notify IRCv3 capabilities.
Added the IRCv3 userhost-in-names capability. This capability is negotiated with
the server at connect and prompts the server to add hostmask to the NAMES
command. This is useful in a scenario where an IRC server has disabled the WHO
command, but allows Eggdrop to still track hostmasks (and removes the "pending"
status from the channel listing under .status).
Added the IRCv3 standard-replies capability. This capability is negotiated with
the server at connect and enables the use of non-numeric FAIL, WARN, and NOTE
messages.
Modified .bans to properly display channel bans.
Fixed a bug with network reads performed on TLS connections, where Eggdrop could
hang until a connection times out, most commonly manifesting itself on server
connects and userfile transfers. This is expected to fix the last documented
issue with Eggdrop's handling of secure connections.
Fixed the Monitor bind to properly use wildcards in binds.
Updated language files from ISO-8859 to UTF-8.
Botnet changes
Fixed an issue in pbkdf2-only links properly using/comparing PASS2 entries.
Tcl API changes
Updated much of the core Tcl integration to be compatible with the upcoming Tcl
9 release. Much work was done to update Eggdrop's internal Tcl calls to prevent
breakages using Tcl 9. Most of these changes are transparent to the user, but
the one major item to call out is the improvement of Tcl's UTF-8 emoji handling,
which no longer requires users to modify TCL_MAX and compile Tcl manually in
order to use emojis properly.
The Python module (below) adds the pysource Tcl command, to load a python script
into Eggdrop.
Added the Tcl CHGHOST bind, which is triggered when a user's hostmask is changed
via an IRCv3 CHGHOST message.
Added the hidden-host type to the event (EVNT) bind. This bind is triggered when
the bot's own host is hidden (+x) by a 396 message sent by server.
Added the got-chanlist type to the event (EVNT) bind. This bind is triggered
once Eggdrop finishes receiving the list of usernames for a channel from a
server. This can be used when Eggdrop needs to wait to perform specific
functions when joining a channel but needs to wait until the users on a channel
have been presented by the server.
Fixed a bug in the isidentified command to check if a user has definitively been
identified or unidentified.
Module changes
Added a Python module! This module integrates an embedded Python interpreter
similar to the Tcl interpreter already present in Eggdrop. This module adds the
.python command to the partyline (again, similar to the .tcl command) to execute
python strings, as well as adding the pysource Tcl command that will load a
Python script into Eggdrop. See doc/modules/mod.python for details on how to use
it, or example scripts in the scripts/ directory.
Eggdrop config changes
The copy-to-tmp option was removed from the config. This value is now functions
under the old '1' behavior where an intermediate temp file is created before
copying from/to files that are in use.
The quick-logs option was removed from the config. This value was created to
hedge against frequent writes to disk, but is less relveant with today's
technology. Eggdrop now writes logfiles to disk immediately.
The old DNS module section was removed
A Python module section was added, but does not load the python module by
default.
The Autoscripts capability to load and manage some scripts from the partyline is
loaded by default
Documentation changes
Added documentation that covers values commonly used when writing new Tcl binds
in C
Added a tutorial to demonstrate how to share userfiles
Added version variable for document generation
