.SH NAME
|
|
bnbot \- Battle.net text-based chat bot client
|
|
.SH SYNOPSIS
|
|
.B bnbot
|
|
[\fIoptions\fP]
|
|
\fIservername\fP
|
|
[\fIserverport\fP]
|
|
.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
.B bnbot
|
|
is a simple program which will allow communication through the bot protocol of a
|
|
Battle.net server from the command line. Input from stdin is sent to the server and
|
|
output from the server is send to stdout. The interface is so simple that
|
|
.BR telnet (1)
|
|
could be used. The only complicating factor is that a control-C character must be sent
|
|
to the server before any other input.
|
|
.LP
|
|
It is hoped that this program can be used with a scripting language like
|
|
.BR expect (1)
|
|
to make creation of chat bots for Unix easier. To date, I don't know of anyone doing
|
|
this. This program may also be used to test bot login permissions for accounts.
|
|
.LP
|
|
If no \fIservername\fP is specified, localhost is assumed. If no \fIserverport\fP is
|
|
specified, 6112 is assumed.
