-*Eggdrop is the world's most popular [[OpenSource|open source]] [[IRC]] [[Bot]].
-"..designed for flexibility and ease of use, and is freely distributable under the [[GNU]] [[GeneralPublicLicense|General Public License]] (GPL).
-Eggdrop was originally developed by [[Robey Pointer]]; however, he no longer works on Eggdrop
-so please do not contact him for help solving a problem or bug.
-== Some features of Eggdrop ==
-*Designed to run on [[Linux]], [[BSD|*BSD]], [[SunOs]], [[Windows]], [[MacOS]] X, etc ...
-*Extendable with [[TCLScripts|tcl scripts]] and/or [[C]] modules
-*Support for the big five [[IRC]] [[Network]]s ([[UnderNet]], [[DALnet]], [[EfNet]], [[IrcNet]], and [[QuakeNet]])
-*The ability to form [[botnet]]s and share [[partyline]]s and userfiles between bots
-== Some benefits of Eggdrop ==
-*The oldest [[IRC]] [[Bots|bot]] still in active development (Eggdrop was created in 1993)
-*Established [[Eggdrop#IRC_support|IRC help channels]] and [http://egghelp.org/links.htm web sites] dedicated to Eggdrop
-*Thousands of premade [[TCL scripts|tcl scripts]] and C modules
-*Best of all ... It's [[Free Software|FREE]]!
-== How to install an Eggdrop ==
-The Short Short & Updated Version
-* [[ssh]] to the [[shell]].
-* [[wget]] or [[ftp]] the source from [[ftp://ftp.eggheads.org/pub/eggdrop/source/1.6/eggdrop1.6.17.tar.gz]]
-* [[UnPack]] it ( tar zxvf eggdrop1.6.17.tar.gz )
-* Switch to the directory  ( cd eggdrop1.6.17 )
-* Start the config script ( ./configure )
-* Compile the modules ,either all ( make config ) or select some of them ( make iconfig ).
-* Compile the bot ( make )
-* Create botdir ( mkdir /home/name/botdir )
-* Install it to a directory of your choice ( make install DEST=/home/name/botdir or try make eggdrop install DEST=/home/name/botdir ).
-* Switch to the botdir and edit the sample config file eggdrop.conf, then rename it to something appropriate (e.g. botnick.conf).
-* Start the bot up in user-creation mode (only the first time) ( ./eggdrop -m <config file> ).
-* [[Telnet]] to the port you chose in the config file and type "NEW" as user. Setup your real user name and password.
-* Now you are owner of the bot , and from now on you start it without the -m option , just (./eggdrop <config file>).
-* If you dont see it appearing on [[IRC]] right away, [[Telnet]] to the [[Partyline]] and try  .jump irc.someserver.com
-* You should have setup your channels in the config, but if you activated dynamic channels you can now use .+chan #channel on the partyline to  make your bot join additional channels.
-* Now learn the [[partyline commands]] to setup users and give them the flags you want. (.+user , .adduser , .chattr) and generally .help . All [[partyline commands]] beging with a "."  Enjoy.
-'''Note:''' Eggdrop requires [[http://www.tcl.tk/software/tcltk/8.3.html Tcl]] to compile. If the server does not have [[http://www.tcl.tk/software/tcltk/8.3.html Tcl]] installed, you will need to download and [[http://www.baschny.de/eggdrop/faq/faq-b.html install]] it.
-'''Hint:''' You might want to set your $LD_LIBRARY_PATH enviromental varible i.e.
-<code>"export LD_LIBRARY_PATH; LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/lib"</code> or where ever your libary is. If you get a error like this...
-<code>./eggdrop: error while loading shared libraries: libtcl8.4.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory</code>
-===Settinng Up botchk===
-botchk is a nice little cron script that will start your bot for you if its not running.
-e.g if the bot die's or the is box restarted.
-be carefull though, as it will just keep starting up the bot no matter why it dies, make shore you box admin alows the use of botchk.
-in the eggdrop/scripts dir run this command
-<code>./autobotchk <config> -dir /home/botdir -noemail </code>
-where <code><config></code> is the name of your bots config file and /home/botdir is the dir of you bot
-.
-== channel settings ==
-A complete list of all available channel settings:
-=== enforcebans ===
-When a ban is set, kick people who are on the channel and match the ban?
-=== dynamicbans ===
-Only activate bans on the channel when necessary? This keeps the channel's ban list from getting excessively long. The bot still remembers every ban, but it only activates a ban on the channel when it sees someone join who matches that ban.
-=== userbans ===
-Allow bans to be made by users directly? If turned off, the bot will require all bans to be made through the bot's console.
-=== dynamicexempts ===
-Only activate exempts on the channel when necessary? This keeps the channel's exempt list from getting excessively long. The bot still remembers every exempt, but it only activates a exempt on the channel when it sees a ban set that matches the exempt. The exempt remains active on the channel for as long as the ban is still active.
-=== userexempts ===
-Allow exempts to be made by users directly? If turned off, the bot will require all exempts to be made through the bot's console.
-=== dynamicinvites ===
-Only activate invites on the channel when necessary? This keeps the channel's invite list from getting excessively long. The bot still remembers every invite, but the invites are only activated when the channel is set to invite only and a user joins after requesting an invite. Once set, the invite remains until the channel goes to -i.
-=== userinvites ===
-Allow invites to be made by users directly? If turned off, the bot will require all invites to be made through the bot's console.
-=== autoop ===
-Op users with the +o flag as soon as they join the channel?
-This is insecure and not recommended.
-=== autohalfop ===
-Halfop users with the +l flag as soon as they join the channel?
-This is insecure and not recommended.
-=== bitch ===
-Only let users with +o) flag be opped on the channel?
-=== greet ===
-Say a user's info line when they join the channel?
-=== protectops ===
-Re-op a user with the +o flag if they get deopped?
-=== protecthalfops ===
-Re-halfop a user with the +l flag if they get dehalfopped?
-=== protectfriends ===
-Re-op a user with the +f flag if they get deopped?
-=== statuslog ===
-Log the channel status line every 5 minutes? This shows the bot's status on the channel (op, voice, etc.), the channel's modes, and the number of +m/+o/+v/+n/+b/+e/+I users on the channel. A sample
-status line follows:
- [01:40] @#lamest (+istn) : [m/1 o/1 v/4 n/7 b/1 e/5 I/7]
-=== revenge ===
-Remember people who [[deop]]/[[kick]]/[[ban]] the bot, valid [[op]]s, or friends and punish them? Users with the +f flag are exempt from revenge.
-=== revengebot ===
-This is similar to to the 'revenge' option, but it only triggers if a bot gets deopped, kicked or banned.
-=== autovoice ===
-Voice users with the +v flag when they join the channel?
-=== secret ===
-Prevent this channel from being listed on the botnet?
-=== shared ===
-Share channel-related user info for this channel?
-=== cycle ===
-Cycle the channel when it has no ops?
-=== dontkickops ===
-Do you want the bot not to be able to kick users who have the +o flag, letting them kick-flood for instance to protect the channel against clone attacks.
-=== inactive ===
-This prevents the bot from joining the channel (or makes it leave the channel if it is already there). It can be useful to make the bot leave a channel without losing its settings, channel-specific user flags, channel bans, and without affecting sharing.
-=== seen ===
-Respond to [[seen]] requests in the channel?  The seen module must be loaded for this to work.
-=== nodesynch ===
-Allow non-ops to perform channel modes? This can stop the bot from fighting with services such as [[ChanServ]], or from kicking [[IRCop]]s when setting channel modes without having ops.
-=== Extensions / Scripts ===
-Eggdrops can be heavily extended using [[TCLScripts|tcl scripts]].

-== Question / Answer ==
-=== QuakeNet Auth ===
-Need to know how to make your eggdrop auth to [[Q]] on [[QuakeNet]]?
-Check [[Eggdrop/QuakeAuth]]
-=== Unleaflike Behaviour ===
-Get botnet disconnects because of "unleaflike behavior" ? It happens when you link 1.6.17 eggdrops to older versions. [http://forum.egghelp.org/viewtopic.php?t=8177 Read here why and how].
-Upgrade all bots to 1.6.17, OR :
-<pre>
-chattr all your bots -o and -l
-do a .save
-set private-globals "l" in your config (that's l as in L, not a one)
-give your bots +o for the channel's they need it on
-</pre>
