purl in #parrot now supports message relay, thanks to Masque++.
to send a message to another user via purl, you can (either in
private conversation with purl or in #parrot), type:
19:15 <@Fred> msg Coke The frobulator is borken.
19:15 <+purl> Message for coke stored.
Then, when purl sees the recipient unidle, she will send them a
private message:
19:16 <purl> You have 1 message waiting.
Respond to the private message with:
19:16 <Coke> messages
19:16 <purl> You received the following messages:
19:16 <purl> Fred [Wed Aug 29 16:15:57 2007] said: The frobulator is
borken.
When you're done, don't forget to erase the messages (still in private:)
19:16 <Coke> messages erase
19:16 <purl> Messages erased
Note that timestamps are based on purl's TZ, not yours.
Note that gossipbot (nee messagebot) was a completely separate code
base developed by Infinoid (based on a throw away idea from me); As
this was being tested, purl started responding to some of the
automated messages, and masque was prompted to fix purl's messages.
Gossipbot is now frozen in an svn repository somewhere, long live purl.
Regards.
