irc gateway update
March 27th, 2009
Just a minor update here. The IRC daemon is as done as I am planning on making it for a long while. Some of the messaging has been cleaned up and it now keeps track of listening users.
You can see who’s on IRC with the normal ‘who’ command:
% who
-----== PLAYERS ==-----
[Admin] Allaryin needs to write quest journals (right adjusted)
[Admin] Malap has several legs (chaotic banana)
[Ancient] Polar bears enjoy eating Sora (lawful good) [idle]
-----== CHAT USERS ==-----
[irc] @Acius
[irc] @allaryin
[irc] @Harkins
--== Players: 1, Wizards: 2, IRC: 3 ==--
When I add jabber support, it will be integrated together with this. Linking of IRC/MUD accounts is future tech that I don’t want to think about quite yet… but when the futuretime comes, I’ll try to set it up so all three services play happy together somehow.
