Need some help with making irc bot

maybe wrong section or forum to ask but im desperate ^^

any one got a irc bot with just functions to joining a channel and nothing else, wich i can learn from?

i tryed google but they are all so incredible advanced wich looks like a mess for me just a simple connect and join bot is enough

And what purpose would "learning" this serve, aside from disrupting/destroying someone's IRC?

dude irc bot that connects a channel and from that i start making my own stuff like if i write !slap someone it says some fun text :/ dont know if you think of virus i mean a channel bot

Yes, I was confused, sorry about that - although not quite as confused as to think you were about to write a virus.

I just read this bit:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IRC_bot

Don't know how to write my own tho'. It sound like you need a fair bit of socket programming and stuff to do that.

ok socket programming guides here i come but thx for the info

long way: read about socket programming and the irc-protcoll
short way: use a debugger or strace utility to check what some simple irc client is doing if you connect and join a channel with it. than reproduce that stuff and hope for the best

Somewhat off topic.... if you know Java, google pircbot. If there was a C++ equivalent, it would probably be what you want now.
