eXtended Perl Trivia Bot for IRC |
XPTB (eXtended Perl Trivia Bot)
is an open-source project which aims to provide a series of trivia bots for IRC, starting
with simple, basic ones to more complex and feature-rich trivia games.
All the scripts created in this project are written in Perl, and run on Linux.
Completely free and open-source, licensed under the
GPL, these scripts may be just what you're looking
for if you are running Linux and want to create a channel
for entertainment on some IRC network, like Undernet for instance. Notice that at the moment the
scripts are still a work in progress, but releases should follow very soon.

Trivi Lite 0.2.3 - Jul 24, 2009
|
Trivi Lite is a basic trivia script, stripped from all the features more advanced bots have.
Use it when you want a simple, fast-paced game of trivia, without persistent scores, stats or teams.
Features
- it shows two hints
- it supports a single answer from a player
- it shows time and cps (caps per second) of the answer
- commands: !TRIVIA, !VERSION, !NEXT, !DATE
- it uses the Net::IRC Perl module for handling the IRC protocol
- you can add any number of questions in the questions.txt file
- language: English
- it runs on Linux
Requirements
- Linux-based OS (it might work on Windows too, but I did not test it)
- Perl 5.10.0 (older versions might work too)
- Net::IRC 0.75 Perl module (the usual package name in distributions is libnet-irc-perl)

Also notice that this is still alpha software, so it may still be buggy. Please mail me
regarding any bug reports (see the bottom of the page) or contact me at Christmas_ @ Undernet.
