 Its very easy to write shell script based bots with ii. As a short example look at this:
 
- tail -f \\#<CHANNEL>/out |
- while read foo ; do
- name=$(echo $foo | awk '{print $2}' | sed 's,<\\(.*\\)>,\\1,')
- if awk 'BEGIN{srand(); exit rand()<.1)}' ; then
- echo "$name: WHAT??" ;
- fi;
- done
+ tail -f \\#<CHANNEL>/out |
+ while read -r date time nick mesg; do
+ nick="${nick#<}"
+ nick="${nick%>}"
+ printf "%s: WHAT??\n" "$nick"
+ done > \\#<CHANNEL>/in
 
 Its just spamming a channel but I guess your imagination is boundless.
 I also heard about people using it together with nagios to get the notifications into IRC.
