#IRC-BF

#Click here if you just want to read the code

An IRC bot written in brainfuck.

#Usage

I've included a simple brainfuck interpreter that uses a TCP connection for input and output.

You can probably run this through a regular old brainfuck interpreter and do some crazy shit to wire it up to a TCP connection, but I didn't feel like it. You can probably make something work with socat.

You can use the custom bf interpreter like this:

netfuck hostname:port path/to/code.bf

For example, to connect the bot to freenode, use this:

netfuck irc.freenode.net:6667 irc-bot.bf

If you use netfuck on Linux or Mac, you need to install mono and prefacae every command with mono, for instance, mono netfuck.exe hostname:port path/to/code.bf.

Then, to get it into your favorite channel, use this from IRC:

/msg bfbot J #channelname

#Included Programs

A couple of simple C# programs are included.

• bf.exe: A simple brainfuck interpreter.
• netfuck.exe: A brainfuck interpreter that uses TCP for input/output.
• asciitodec.exe: Converts an ASCII string to decimal to make my life easier

#Status

Current capabilities of the bot:

• Connect to IRC, respond to PING and such
• When PRIVMSGed with "J #channelname", it joins #channelname
• In-channel, use "$message" to have "message" echoed back to you
