Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: infobot-dev@metronomicon.com Precedence: bulk Status: O I was thinking of starting work on a quote module. and here are my thoughts on it. usage: quote would take the last thing said and stick it into a dbm or some way tie it to the nick. In theory I was thinking that it could be taken from the seen-dbm, but I haven't looked at it. There'd be a one-to-many relationship between nick-to-quote. more usage: (spit out|regurgitate|recite) quote (from) that would pick a random quote from and recite it with: > teckle says "I like to smell my shoes after a long day" Or something like that. One problem I see (as with a lot of infobot info) is data verification and removal of quotes... but that'll be the second version of the module I suppose. This is all in theory and no work has been done yet. But I figured rather then start something someone else was working on I'd post here. That and possibly get some direction/assistance on it.
