GumbyBoi Instructions

GumbyBoi is an IRC bot running on a number of channels on QuakeNET. It is running the BingosBOT code which is designed specifically to work with the Lightweight (L) bot.

All authentication on GumbyBoi is dealt with via Q and chanlev lists for each channel from L.

When GumbyBoi joins a channel it will access the chanlev list from L for that channel. At a minimum GumbyBoi requires +av on that channel to read the permissions and +ao is required to enable full functionality.

Gumbyboi has the concept of chanowners and chanops. Chanowners are people who have the +m on L for a channel. Chanops are people who have +o on L for a channel.

Chanowner commands

/msg GumbyBoi chanlev <#channel>

Obtain a list of the privledges set on the given channel

/msg GumbyBoi chanlev <#channel> [+|-][p|v|c|o|t|k]

Set flags on the channel:-

• +p - Any user can run public (!*) commands ( default: only chanops can do public commands)
• +t - Only chanops can change the topic ( default: all ops can change topic )
• +v - Autovoice anyone who joins the channel
• +c - Protect the channel. Only chanowners can change the channel modes. Chanops can still set bans.
• +o - Allow non-authorised ops. Without this flag only ops opped by L will be allowed.
• +k - Sets a channel key on the channel. Takes an additional argument, the key to set.

/msg GumbyBoi chanlev <#channel> |<#authname> [+|-][o|v|g]
