EnergyMech
From OSSWiki
The EnergyMech is a powerful IRC bot written in the C programming language according to the GNU General Public License software license. History before 1997 is unclear but the current version was branched off the original EnergyMech written by Polygon. Development since 1997 has mainly been the work of Proton, since then many alterations and improvements has been made. The EnergyMech of today is a powerful IRC bot with its ease of use and many customizable features.
Some of the original features gave the EnergyMech a reputation as a hacking tool. Nowadays those particular features have been restricted or removed in order to stifle the use of the bot for evil/abusive purposes.
Special to the EnergyMech IRC bot is the capability to run more than one client connection from a single process. This enables a number of improvements such as information sharing between the clients, quicker responses and saving resources on the host system.
In the very latest versions (3.x and up) the EnergyMech also supports such advanced features as TCL scripting, DCC file transfers, IRC bouncer, botnet linking and userlist sharing.
