From README:
`ircbot` provides a simple CLOS class, `ircbot`, which will maintain a connection to a single IRC channel via `cl-irc`. The bot will handle ping/pong and detect failed connections, and is capable of authenticating with NickServ (using ghost when necessary to reacquire nick).
From INSTALL:
* Install SBCL (with sb-thread) and Quicklisp. * From the SBCL REPL: (ql:quickload :cl-irc) * Use V to press `ircbot` mkdir -p ~/src/ircbot cd ~/src/ircbot mkdir .wot cd .wot && wget http://trinque.org/trinque.asc && cd .. v.pl init http://trinque.org/src/ircbot v.pl press ircbot-genesis ircbot-genesis.vpatch ln -s ~/src/ircbot/ircbot-genesis ~/quicklisp/local-projects/ircbot
