The following module was proposed for inclusion in the Module List:
modid: Chatbot::TalkerBot
DSLIP: RdpOp
description: Talker (telnet-accessible chat areas) client
userid: PKENT (Piers Kent)
chapterid: 5 (Networking_Devices_IPC)
communities:

rationale:
Talkers are simple chat systems, a bit like IRC but everyone
telnets to the same machine and just talks. There are no modules
that implement a talker client, so that's what this does. It
provides a couple of utility methods to get you connected, and then
you create a talker robot object.
The robot object has methods to do all the things you'd expect, and
it also has built-in ability to listen for and act on commands. An
example use is where I whisper: > robot help and it replies robot
>TalkerBot version 1.8! robot >Lines In: 234 ...
Obviously you can do a lot more :-) (sorry if you got this twice)
