README TarsgBOT_SA ================== TarsgBOT Stand Alone 0.0.4 TarsgBOT SA is a fully functional AIM client, designed for automated generation of random sentences. ================================================== Hey! I'd like to give a few shout-outs to all my peeps: n1zyy, for his insperation and insight; vahaxor, for his help back in the day; SuicidalSunshine, Catwm77, Kahnrom, swarmster, Greenseagull36, Buster Keeper, AlfredTwo, AboutMe63, CatMBB, NTBanjoman, Askme603, Dodgy 38, and MoggStomper, for putting up with TarsgBot during those early test phases; and the rest of the people who tarsgBOT randomly im'ed and you didn't warn me 87 times. thank you. and lastly... i love linux. ================================================== INSTALL It is written in perl, So you will need that, plus you will need to install the AOL-TOC perl modules. Here is how you do it on a Mandrake-Linux box. bash-2.04$ su bash-2.04# cd bash-2.04# tar zxvf AOL-TOC-0.340.tar.gz bash-2.04# cd AOL-TOC-0.34 bash-2.04# perl Makefile.PL bash-2.04# make bash-2.04# make install DONE!!!! ok that should do the trick... if you get some weird error about missing perl.h then go down to the section "ALT-INSTALL AOL::TOC" now just run the config script "./configure.pl"; and everything should be cool. so just run "./tarsgBOT_SA.pl" =================================================== ALT-INSTALL AOL::TOC if you got some weird error about missing perl.h then try this. but first delete the AOL-TOC-0.34 directory. bash-2.04$ su bash-2.04# cd /usr/lib/perl5/5.6.0/i386-linux/ bash-2.04# tar zxvf /AOL-TOC-0.340.tar.gz bash-2.04# mv AOL-TOC-0.34 AOL this should work in most cases, otherwise you will need to get the perl source and compile it, or get a perl-devel package.
