BillyBot has been resurrected!

Thaoh — Fri, 12/11/2009 - 13:59

I got back some really old, like three-five years old or even older *checks* These files date back to 2006 so three years old. Wait, you don't know what or who BillyBot is do you? I'll explain.

BillyBot is my beginner perl project. It was something that started out as mayabot 4.0. Which I to this date have been unable to retrieve(I'd like to help others learn pearl through MSN-botting since I found it enjoyable.) I could of course now that I have an extended knowledge of perl and Just found MSN.pm which also seems lost to the web.

Thus my three years old project. The first thing that happened when I booted up billybot was that it complained about not having some required stuff. As I learnt way back when bot-depot was alive. You need Crypt::SSLeay this is retrieved by writing: "ppm install http://cpan.uwinnipeg.ca/PPMPackages/10xx/Crypt-SSLeay.ppd" into CMD prompt, sure I could've used run as well but I didn't. (That's without the "s if you didn't get that)

So, now that I've found my bot again, and all the code and requirements to run him, what will I do? I will most likely Run through the code and try to run an upgrade on him... Even though some might argue that he don't need one(silly people :P). I am not certain as to werther I will completely rewrite him or what. One thing is certain though, I will change some things.
