Well BASHing together an IRC bot out of netcat and quick-and-dirty
oneliners of sed and awk are easy for me, because I'm used to it.<br>
<br>
Anything beyond a quick one-liner of Perl looks daunting to me.<br>
<br>
I dislike using standard libraries. To me, it's learning how to use
other people's code. Reinventing the wheel my butt.<br>

meeting sounds like fun. We can review the random password
generator code progress too. What say Ye? (Futurama Bot

I'm sad that it isn't every week, but I suppose there's a lot
more that at Dallas Makerspace than Hump Day Mongering.<br>
<br>
Yeah, people said I was insane for writing that script, a Bash
shell script IRC bot that used netcat.<br>
<br>
My response was "meow." I can't believe I lost that
thumbdrive.<br>

We hold Perl Mongers on the second Wednesday of each month,
so we will meet next on 11/13/13. It generally works out to
be somewhere around the hump day of each month ;-)<br>
<br>
The IRC bot script that's being discussed sounds like lots
of fun!<br>
