Installation
To install you have to follow the default steps:
First of all, configure the project. First of all, you should see what the configure script do for you with
./configure --help
If you have the full gnome2 project installed, you can enter the command without parameters
./configure
If you want, you can start it with parameters e.g to change the configuration backend, and set the default place for the config file.
After running configure (assuming it executed without error messages), you can run make
make
This will build the whole thing from the source tree.
After a successful make, you can install it. Sounds funny, but I never tried it yet. :)
Usage
Right after you start BotCommander, it switches to BotCommander Command Mode. In this mode, you can write commands in the command line, without the leading / character. (In other modes, you have to write a / before the command.)
The following commands are available at the time:
CONNECT host port
will connect to the given host on the given port. host can be a hostname or an IP address, port can be a port number, or a service name in /etc/services
QUIT
will exit BotCommander.
EXIT
will exit BotCommander.
