| 
 | ||||
|  Copyright (C) 1991, 1999 Free Software Foundation, Inc. | ||||
|      59 Temple Place, Suite 330, Boston, MA  02111-1307  USA | ||||
|  Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies | ||||
|  of this license document, but changing it is not allowed. | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| [This is the first released version of the Lesser GPL.  It also counts | ||||
|  as the successor of the GNU Library Public License, version 2, hence | ||||
|  the version number 2.1.] | ||||
| 
 | ||||
|                             Preamble | ||||
| 
 | ||||
|   The licenses for most software are designed to take away your | ||||
| freedom to share and change it.  By contrast, the GNU General Public | ||||
| Licenses are intended to guarantee your freedom to share and change | ||||
| free software--to make sure the software is free for all its users. | ||||
| 
 | ||||
|   This license, the Lesser General Public License, applies to some | ||||
| specially designated software packages--typically libraries--of the | ||||
| Free Software Foundation and other authors who decide to use it.  You | ||||
| can use it too, but we suggest you first think carefully about whether | ||||
| this license or the ordinary General Public License is the better | ||||
| strategy to use in any particular case, based on the explanations | ||||
| below. | ||||
| 
 | ||||
|   When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom of use, | ||||
| not price.  Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that | ||||
| you have the freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge | ||||
| for this service if you wish); that you receive source code or can get | ||||
| it if you want it; that you can change the software and use pieces of | ||||
| it in new free programs; and that you are informed that you can do | ||||
| these things. | ||||
| 
 | ||||
|   To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that forbid | ||||
| distributors to deny you these rights or to ask you to surrender these | ||||
| rights.  These restrictions translate to certain responsibilities for | ||||
| you if you distribute copies of the library or if you modify it. | ||||
| 
 | ||||
|   For example, if you distribute copies of the library, whether gratis | ||||
| or for a fee, you must give the recipients all the rights that we gave | ||||
| you.  You must make sure that they, too, receive or can get the source | ||||
| code.  If you link other code with the library, you must provide | ||||
| complete object files to the recipients, so that they can relink them | ||||
| with the library after making changes to the library and recompiling | ||||
| it.  And you must show them these terms so they know their rights. | ||||
| 
 | ||||
|   We protect your rights with a two-step method: (1) we copyright the | ||||
| library, and (2) we offer you this license, which gives you legal | ||||
| permission to copy, distribute and/or modify the library. | ||||
| 
 | ||||
|   To protect each distributor, we want to make it very clear that | ||||
| there is no warranty for the free library.  Also, if the library is | ||||
| modified by someone else and passed on, the recipients should know | ||||
| that what they have is not the original version, so that the original | ||||
| author's reputation will not be affected by problems that might be | ||||
| introduced by others. | ||||
| ^L | ||||
|   Finally, software patents pose a constant threat to the existence of | ||||
| any free program.  We wish to make sure that a company cannot | ||||
| effectively restrict the users of a free program by obtaining a | ||||
| restrictive license from a patent holder.  Therefore, we insist that | ||||
| any patent license obtained for a version of the library must be | ||||
| consistent with the full freedom of use specified in this license. | ||||
| 
 | ||||
|   Most GNU software, including some libraries, is covered by the | ||||
| ordinary GNU General Public License.  This license, the GNU Lesser | ||||
| General Public License, applies to certain designated libraries, and | ||||
| is quite different from the ordinary General Public License.  We use | ||||
| this license for certain libraries in order to permit linking those | ||||
| libraries into non-free programs. | ||||
| 
 | ||||
|   When a program is linked with a library, whether statically or using | ||||
| a shared library, the combination of the two is legally speaking a | ||||
| combined work, a derivative of the original library.  The ordinary | ||||
| General Public License therefore permits such linking only if the | ||||
| entire combination fits its criteria of freedom.  The Lesser General | ||||
| Public License permits more lax criteria for linking other code with | ||||
| the library. | ||||
| 
 | ||||
|   We call this license the "Lesser" General Public License because it | ||||
| does Less to protect the user's freedom than the ordinary General | ||||
| Public License.  It also provides other free software developers Less | ||||
| of an advantage over competing non-free programs.  These disadvantages | ||||
| are the reason we use the ordinary General Public License for many | ||||
| libraries.  However, the Lesser license provides advantages in certain | ||||
| special circumstances. | ||||
| 
 | ||||
|   For example, on rare occasions, there may be a special need to | ||||
| encourage the widest possible use of a certain library, so that it | ||||
| becomes a de-facto standard.  To achieve this, non-free programs must | ||||
| be allowed to use the library.  A more frequent case is that a free | ||||
| library does the same job as widely used non-free libraries.  In this | ||||
| case, there is little to gain by limiting the free library to free | ||||
| software only, so we use the Lesser General Public License. | ||||
| 
 | ||||
|   In other cases, permission to use a particular library in non-free | ||||
| programs enables a greater number of people to use a large body of | ||||
| free software.  For example, permission to use the GNU C Library in | ||||
| non-free programs enables many more people to use the whole GNU | ||||
| operating system, as well as its variant, the GNU/Linux operating | ||||
| system. | ||||
| 
 | ||||
|   Although the Lesser General Public License is Less protective of the | ||||
| users' freedom, it does ensure that the user of a program that is | ||||
| linked with the Library has the freedom and the wherewithal to run | ||||
| that program using a modified version of the Library. | ||||
| 
 | ||||
|   The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and | ||||
| modification follow.  Pay close attention to the difference between a | ||||
| "work based on the library" and a "work that uses the library".  The | ||||
| former contains code derived from the library, whereas the latter must | ||||
| be combined with the library in order to run. | ||||
| ^L | ||||
|                   GNU LESSER GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE | ||||
|    TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATION | ||||
| 
 | ||||
|   0. This License Agreement applies to any software library or other | ||||
| program which contains a notice placed by the copyright holder or | ||||
| other authorized party saying it may be distributed under the terms of | ||||
| this Lesser General Public License (also called "this License"). | ||||
| Each licensee is addressed as "you". | ||||
| 
 | ||||
|   A "library" means a collection of software functions and/or data | ||||
| prepared so as to be conveniently linked with application programs | ||||
| (which use some of those functions and data) to form executables. | ||||
| 
 | ||||
|   The "Library", below, refers to any such software library or work | ||||
| which has been distributed under these terms.  A "work based on the | ||||
| Library" means either the Library or any derivative work under | ||||
| copyright law: that is to say, a work containing the Library or a | ||||
| portion of it, either verbatim or with modifications and/or translated | ||||
| straightforwardly into another language.  (Hereinafter, translation is | ||||
| included without limitation in the term "modification".) | ||||
| 
 | ||||
|   "Source code" for a work means the preferred form of the work for | ||||
| making modifications to it.  For a library, complete source code means | ||||
| all the source code for all modules it contains, plus any associated | ||||
| interface definition files, plus the scripts used to control | ||||
| compilation and installation of the library. | ||||
| 
 | ||||
|   Activities other than copying, distribution and modification are not | ||||
| covered by this License; they are outside its scope.  The act of | ||||
| running a program using the Library is not restricted, and output from | ||||
| such a program is covered only if its contents constitute a work based | ||||
| on the Library (independent of the use of the Library in a tool for | ||||
| writing it).  Whether that is true depends on what the Library does | ||||
| and what the program that uses the Library does. | ||||
| 
 | ||||
|   1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Library's | ||||
| complete source code as you receive it, in any medium, provided that | ||||
| you conspicuously and appropriately publish on each copy an | ||||
| appropriate copyright notice and disclaimer of warranty; keep intact | ||||
| all the notices that refer to this License and to the absence of any | ||||
| warranty; and distribute a copy of this License along with the | ||||
| Library. | ||||
| 
 | ||||
|   You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy, | ||||
| and you may at your option offer warranty protection in exchange for a | ||||
| fee. | ||||
|  | ||||
|   2. You may modify your copy or copies of the Library or any portion | ||||
| of it, thus forming a work based on the Library, and copy and | ||||
| distribute such modifications or work under the terms of Section 1 | ||||
| above, provided that you also meet all of these conditions: | ||||
| 
 | ||||
|     a) The modified work must itself be a software library. | ||||
| 
 | ||||
|     b) You must cause the files modified to carry prominent notices | ||||
|     stating that you changed the files and the date of any change. | ||||
| 
 | ||||
|     c) You must cause the whole of the work to be licensed at no | ||||
|     charge to all third parties under the terms of this License. | ||||
| 
 | ||||
|     d) If a facility in the modified Library refers to a function or a | ||||
|     table of data to be supplied by an application program that uses | ||||
|     the facility, other than as an argument passed when the facility | ||||
|     is invoked, then you must make a good faith effort to ensure that, | ||||
|     in the event an application does not supply such function or | ||||
|     table, the facility still operates, and performs whatever part of | ||||
|     its purpose remains meaningful. | ||||
| 
 | ||||
|     (For example, a function in a library to compute square roots has | ||||
|     a purpose that is entirely well-defined independent of the | ||||
|     application.  Therefore, Subsection 2d requires that any | ||||
|     application-supplied function or table used by this function must | ||||
|     be optional: if the application does not supply it, the square | ||||
|     root function must still compute square roots.) | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole.  If | ||||
| identifiable sections of that work are not derived from the Library, | ||||
| and can be reasonably considered independent and separate works in | ||||
| themselves, then this License, and its terms, do not apply to those | ||||
| sections when you distribute them as separate works.  But when you | ||||
| distribute the same sections as part of a whole which is a work based | ||||
| on the Library, the distribution of the whole must be on the terms of | ||||
| this License, whose permissions for other licensees extend to the | ||||
| entire whole, and thus to each and every part regardless of who wrote | ||||
| it. | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or contest | ||||
| your rights to work written entirely by you; rather, the intent is to | ||||
| exercise the right to control the distribution of derivative or | ||||
| collective works based on the Library. | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the Library | ||||
| with the Library (or with a work based on the Library) on a volume of | ||||
| a storage or distribution medium does not bring the other work under | ||||
| the scope of this License. | ||||
| 
 | ||||
|   3. You may opt to apply the terms of the ordinary GNU General Public | ||||
| License instead of this License to a given copy of the Library.  To do | ||||
| this, you must alter all the notices that refer to this License, so | ||||
| that they refer to the ordinary GNU General Public License, version 2, | ||||
| instead of to this License.  (If a newer version than version 2 of the | ||||
| ordinary GNU General Public License has appeared, then you can specify | ||||
| that version instead if you wish.)  Do not make any other change in | ||||
| these notices. | ||||
| ^L | ||||
|   Once this change is made in a given copy, it is irreversible for | ||||
| that copy, so the ordinary GNU General Public License applies to all | ||||
| subsequent copies and derivative works made from that copy. | ||||
| 
 | ||||
|   This option is useful when you wish to copy part of the code of | ||||
| the Library into a program that is not a library. | ||||
| 
 | ||||
|   4. You may copy and distribute the Library (or a portion or | ||||
| derivative of it, under Section 2) in object code or executable form | ||||
| under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above provided that you accompany | ||||
| it with the complete corresponding machine-readable source code, which | ||||
| must be distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a | ||||
| medium customarily used for software interchange. | ||||
| 
 | ||||
|   If distribution of object code is made by offering access to copy | ||||
| from a designated place, then offering equivalent access to copy the | ||||
| source code from the same place satisfies the requirement to | ||||
| distribute the source code, even though third parties are not | ||||
| compelled to copy the source along with the object code. | ||||
| 
 | ||||
|   5. A program that contains no derivative of any portion of the | ||||
| Library, but is designed to work with the Library by being compiled or | ||||
| linked with it, is called a "work that uses the Library".  Such a | ||||
| work, in isolation, is not a derivative work of the Library, and | ||||
| therefore falls outside the scope of this License. | ||||
| 
 | ||||
|   However, linking a "work that uses the Library" with the Library | ||||
| creates an executable that is a derivative of the Library (because it | ||||
| contains portions of the Library), rather than a "work that uses the | ||||
| library".  The executable is therefore covered by this License. | ||||
| Section 6 states terms for distribution of such executables. | ||||
| 
 | ||||
|   When a "work that uses the Library" uses material from a header file | ||||
| that is part of the Library, the object code for the work may be a | ||||
| derivative work of the Library even though the source code is not. | ||||
| Whether this is true is especially significant if the work can be | ||||
| linked without the Library, or if the work is itself a library.  The | ||||
| threshold for this to be true is not precisely defined by law. | ||||
| 
 | ||||
|   If such an object file uses only numerical parameters, data | ||||
| structure layouts and accessors, and small macros and small inline | ||||
| functions (ten lines or less in length), then the use of the object | ||||
| file is unrestricted, regardless of whether it is legally a derivative | ||||
| work.  (Executables containing this object code plus portions of the | ||||
| Library will still fall under Section 6.) | ||||
| 
 | ||||
|   Otherwise, if the work is a derivative of the Library, you may | ||||
| distribute the object code for the work under the terms of Section 6. | ||||
| Any executables containing that work also fall under Section 6, | ||||
| whether or not they are linked directly with the Library itself. | ||||
| ^L | ||||
|   6. As an exception to the Sections above, you may also combine or | ||||
| link a "work that uses the Library" with the Library to produce a | ||||
| work containing portions of the Library, and distribute that work | ||||
| under terms of your choice, provided that the terms permit | ||||
| modification of the work for the customer's own use and reverse | ||||
| engineering for debugging such modifications. | ||||
| 
 | ||||
|   You must give prominent notice with each copy of the work that the | ||||
| Library is used in it and that the Library and its use are covered by | ||||
| this License.  You must supply a copy of this License.  If the work | ||||
| during execution displays copyright notices, you must include the | ||||
| copyright notice for the Library among them, as well as a reference | ||||
| directing the user to the copy of this License.  Also, you must do one | ||||
| of these things: | ||||
| 
 | ||||
|     a) Accompany the work with the complete corresponding | ||||
|     machine-readable source code for the Library including whatever | ||||
|     changes were used in the work (which must be distributed under | ||||
|     Sections 1 and 2 above); and, if the work is an executable linked | ||||
|     with the Library, with the complete machine-readable "work that | ||||
|     uses the Library", as object code and/or source code, so that the | ||||
|     user can modify the Library and then relink to produce a modified | ||||
|     executable containing the modified Library.  (It is understood | ||||
|     that the user who changes the contents of definitions files in the | ||||
|     Library will not necessarily be able to recompile the application | ||||
|     to use the modified definitions.) | ||||
| 
 | ||||
|     b) Use a suitable shared library mechanism for linking with the | ||||
|     Library.  A suitable mechanism is one that (1) uses at run time a | ||||
|     copy of the library already present on the user's computer system, | ||||
|     rather than copying library functions into the executable, and (2) | ||||
|     will operate properly with a modified version of the library, if | ||||
|     the user installs one, as long as the modified version is | ||||
|     interface-compatible with the version that the work was made with. | ||||
| 
 | ||||
|     c) Accompany the work with a written offer, valid for at least | ||||
|     three years, to give the same user the materials specified in | ||||
|     Subsection 6a, above, for a charge no more than the cost of | ||||
|     performing this distribution. | ||||
| 
 | ||||
|     d) If distribution of the work is made by offering access to copy | ||||
|     from a designated place, offer equivalent access to copy the above | ||||
|     specified materials from the same place. | ||||
| 
 | ||||
|     e) Verify that the user has already received a copy of these | ||||
|     materials or that you have already sent this user a copy. | ||||
| 
 | ||||
|   For an executable, the required form of the "work that uses the | ||||
| Library" must include any data and utility programs needed for | ||||
| reproducing the executable from it.  However, as a special exception, | ||||
| the materials to be distributed need not include anything that is | ||||
| normally distributed (in either source or binary form) with the major | ||||
| components (compiler, kernel, and so on) of the operating system on | ||||
| which the executable runs, unless that component itself accompanies | ||||
| the executable. | ||||
| 
 | ||||
|   It may happen that this requirement contradicts the license | ||||
| restrictions of other proprietary libraries that do not normally | ||||
| accompany the operating system.  Such a contradiction means you cannot | ||||
| use both them and the Library together in an executable that you | ||||
| distribute. | ||||
| ^L | ||||
|   7. You may place library facilities that are a work based on the | ||||
| Library side-by-side in a single library together with other library | ||||
| facilities not covered by this License, and distribute such a combined | ||||
| library, provided that the separate distribution of the work based on | ||||
| the Library and of the other library facilities is otherwise | ||||
| permitted, and provided that you do these two things: | ||||
| 
 | ||||
|     a) Accompany the combined library with a copy of the same work | ||||
|     based on the Library, uncombined with any other library | ||||
|     facilities.  This must be distributed under the terms of the | ||||
|     Sections above. | ||||
| 
 | ||||
|     b) Give prominent notice with the combined library of the fact | ||||
|     that part of it is a work based on the Library, and explaining | ||||
|     where to find the accompanying uncombined form of the same work. | ||||
| 
 | ||||
|   8. You may not copy, modify, sublicense, link with, or distribute | ||||
| the Library except as expressly provided under this License.  Any | ||||
| attempt otherwise to copy, modify, sublicense, link with, or | ||||
| distribute the Library is void, and will automatically terminate your | ||||
| rights under this License.  However, parties who have received copies, | ||||
| or rights, from you under this License will not have their licenses | ||||
| terminated so long as such parties remain in full compliance. | ||||
| 
 | ||||
|   9. You are not required to accept this License, since you have not | ||||
| signed it.  However, nothing else grants you permission to modify or | ||||
| distribute the Library or its derivative works.  These actions are | ||||
| prohibited by law if you do not accept this License.  Therefore, by | ||||
| modifying or distributing the Library (or any work based on the | ||||
| Library), you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so, and | ||||
| all its terms and conditions for copying, distributing or modifying | ||||
| the Library or works based on it. | ||||
| 
 | ||||
|   10. Each time you redistribute the Library (or any work based on the | ||||
| Library), the recipient automatically receives a license from the | ||||
| original licensor to copy, distribute, link with or modify the Library | ||||
| subject to these terms and conditions.  You may not impose any further | ||||
| restrictions on the recipients' exercise of the rights granted herein. | ||||
| You are not responsible for enforcing compliance by third parties with | ||||
| this License. | ||||
| ^L | ||||
|   11. If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of patent | ||||
| infringement or for any other reason (not limited to patent issues), | ||||
| conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or | ||||
| otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not | ||||
| excuse you from the conditions of this License.  If you cannot | ||||
| distribute so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this | ||||
| License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you | ||||
| may not distribute the Library at all.  For example, if a patent | ||||
| license would not permit royalty-free redistribution of the Library by | ||||
| all those who receive copies directly or indirectly through you, then | ||||
| the only way you could satisfy both it and this License would be to | ||||
| refrain entirely from distribution of the Library. | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| If any portion of this section is held invalid or unenforceable under | ||||
| any particular circumstance, the balance of the section is intended to | ||||
| apply, and the section as a whole is intended to apply in other | ||||
| circumstances. | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| It is not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe any | ||||
| patents or other property right claims or to contest validity of any | ||||
| such claims; this section has the sole purpose of protecting the | ||||
| integrity of the free software distribution system which is | ||||
| implemented by public license practices.  Many people have made | ||||
| generous contributions to the wide range of software distributed | ||||
| through that system in reliance on consistent application of that | ||||
| system; it is up to the author/donor to decide if he or she is willing | ||||
| to distribute software through any other system and a licensee cannot | ||||
| impose that choice. | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| This section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is believed to | ||||
| be a consequence of the rest of this License. | ||||
| 
 | ||||
|   12. If the distribution and/or use of the Library is restricted in | ||||
| certain countries either by patents or by copyrighted interfaces, the | ||||
| original copyright holder who places the Library under this License | ||||
| may add an explicit geographical distribution limitation excluding those | ||||
| countries, so that distribution is permitted only in or among | ||||
| countries not thus excluded.  In such case, this License incorporates | ||||
| the limitation as if written in the body of this License. | ||||
| 
 | ||||
|   13. The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new | ||||
| versions of the Lesser General Public License from time to time. | ||||
| Such new versions will be similar in spirit to the present version, | ||||
| but may differ in detail to address new problems or concerns. | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| Each version is given a distinguishing version number.  If the Library | ||||
| specifies a version number of this License which applies to it and | ||||
| "any later version", you have the option of following the terms and | ||||
| conditions either of that version or of any later version published by | ||||
| the Free Software Foundation.  If the Library does not specify a | ||||
| license version number, you may choose any version ever published by | ||||
| the Free Software Foundation. | ||||
| ^L | ||||
|   14. If you wish to incorporate parts of the Library into other free | ||||
| programs whose distribution conditions are incompatible with these, | ||||
| write to the author to ask for permission.  For software which is | ||||
| copyrighted by the Free Software Foundation, write to the Free | ||||
| Software Foundation; we sometimes make exceptions for this.  Our | ||||
| decision will be guided by the two goals of preserving the free status | ||||
| of all derivatives of our free software and of promoting the sharing | ||||
| and reuse of software generally. | ||||
| 
 | ||||
|                             NO WARRANTY | ||||
| 
 | ||||
|   15. BECAUSE THE LIBRARY IS LICENSED FREE OF CHARGE, THERE IS NO | ||||
| WARRANTY FOR THE LIBRARY, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW. | ||||
| EXCEPT WHEN OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT HOLDERS AND/OR | ||||
| OTHER PARTIES PROVIDE THE LIBRARY "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY | ||||
| KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE | ||||
| IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR | ||||
| PURPOSE.  THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE | ||||
| LIBRARY IS WITH YOU.  SHOULD THE LIBRARY PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME | ||||
| THE COST OF ALL NECESSARY SERVICING, REPAIR OR CORRECTION. | ||||
| 
 | ||||
|   16. IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN | ||||

|            How to Apply These Terms to Your New Libraries | ||||
| 
 | ||||
|   If you develop a new library, and you want it to be of the greatest | ||||
| possible use to the public, we recommend making it free software that | ||||
| everyone can redistribute and change.  You can do so by permitting | ||||
| redistribution under these terms (or, alternatively, under the terms | ||||
| of the ordinary General Public License). | ||||
| 
 | ||||
|   To apply these terms, attach the following notices to the library. | ||||
| It is safest to attach them to the start of each source file to most | ||||
| effectively convey the exclusion of warranty; and each file should | ||||
| have at least the "copyright" line and a pointer to where the full | ||||
| notice is found. | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| 
 | ||||
|     <one line to give the library's name and a brief idea of what it does.> | ||||

| Also add information on how to contact you by electronic and paper mail. | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| You should also get your employer (if you work as a programmer) or | ||||
| your school, if any, to sign a "copyright disclaimer" for the library, | ||||
| if necessary.  Here is a sample; alter the names: | ||||

|     * ircbot.py: Reverted a leftover testing fragment that broke ircbot.py | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| 2008-08-29  Keltus <keltus@users.sourceforge.net> | ||||
|     * irclib.py: Reverted changes in irclib that don't really belong in the core lib | ||||
|     * irclib.py: Add support for ssl | ||||
|     * irclib.py: Add support for ipv6 | ||||
| 	* python-irclib now requires python 2.3 and above (for ssl and ipv6) | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| 2006-03-09  Keltus <keltus@users.sourceforge.net> | ||||
| 	* README: Minor update | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| 2005-12-24  Keltus <keltus@users.sourceforge.net> | ||||
| 	* Released version 0.4.6. | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| 	* irclib.py (VERSION): | ||||
| 	* python-irclib.spec.in: | ||||
| 	Preparations for version 0.4.6. | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| 2005-12-23  Keltus <keltus@users.sourceforge.net> | ||||
| 	* dccsend: | ||||
| 	* dccreceive: | ||||
| 	* irclib.py: | ||||
| 	* ircbot.py: | ||||
| 	* irccat: | ||||
| 	* irccat2: | ||||
| 	* servermap: | ||||
| 	* testbot.py: | ||||
| 	Code modernization - String methods used instead of deprecated | ||||
| 	string functions, keyword 'in' used for membership testing instead | ||||
| 	of 'has_key' method, etc. | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| 2005-12-06  Keltus <keltus@users.sourceforge.net> | ||||
| 	* irclib.py (ServerConnection.process_data): Reversed fix from | ||||
| 	2005-05-28. This is strange because there was a bug before and | ||||
| 	now it's gone. Either python changed something, or the IRC | ||||
| 	networks changed something. Confirmed by peter. | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| 2005-11-03  Keltus <keltus@users.sourceforge.net> | ||||
| 	* irclib.py (numeric_events): Renamed numeric code 332 from topic | ||||
| 	to currenttopic (the message when "/topic <chan>" is sent), so it | ||||
| 	doesn't collide with TOPIC (the message when the topic is set). | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| 2005-08-27  Keltus <keltus@users.sourceforge.net> | ||||
| 	* irclib.py (ServerConnection.disconnect): Fixed infinitely | ||||
| 	recursive calls when disconnecting with a failed connection. Bug | ||||
| 	reported by Erik Max Francis. | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| 2005-08-18  Keltus <keltus@users.sourceforge.net> | ||||
| 	* irclib.py: Made ServerConnection.disconnect more consistant and | ||||
| 	changed some functions to use it instead of quit. Previously, | ||||
| 	disconnect would ignore the quit message, but now it sends a quit | ||||
| 	message and disconnect. Suggestion by Erik Max Francis. | ||||
| 	* ircbot.py: Changed to use ServerConnection.disconnect instead of | ||||
| 	ServerConnection.quit as well. | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| 2005-05-28  Keltus <keltus@users.sourceforge.net> | ||||
| 	* irclib.py (ServerConnection.process_data): Fixed quit arguments | ||||
| 	to return a list rather than a list of a list. Patch from peter. | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| 2005-05-18  Keltus <keltus@users.sourceforge.net> | ||||
| 	* Released version 0.4.5. | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| 	* irclib.py (ServerConnection.__init__): Added self.socket = None | ||||
| 	to be able to process events when ServerConnection is not | ||||
| 	connected to a socket. Patch from alst. | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| 	* irclib.py (VERSION): | ||||
| 	* python-irclib.spec.in: | ||||
| 	Preparations for version 0.4.5. | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| 2005-04-26  Keltus <keltus@users.sourceforge.net> | ||||
| 	* irclib.py (IRC.__doc__): Corrected server.process_forever() to | ||||
| 	irc.process_forever(). Suggestion by olecom. | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| 2005-04-17  Keltus <keltus@users.sourceforge.net> | ||||
| 	* irclib.py (ServerConnection.process_data): Moved event | ||||
| 	translation code. | ||||
| 	* irclib.py (ServerConnection): Reverted the 2005-01-28 change | ||||
| 	because it breaks jump_server(). | ||||
| 	* irclib.py: minor comment changes | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| 2005-04-03  Keltus <keltus@users.sourceforge.net> | ||||
| 	* irclib.py (protocol_events): Added "pong" and "invite" events. | ||||
| 	Patch from Adam Mikuta. | ||||
| 	* irclib.py (ServerConnection.part): Added message parameter. | ||||

| 	* irclib.py: (ServerConnection): Moved | ||||
| 	self.irclibobj._remove_connection call from	close() to | ||||
| 	disconnect(). Patch from Alexey Nezhdanov. | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| 2005-01-25  Keltus <keltus@users.sourceforge.net> | ||||
| 	* irclib.py (ServerConnection.connect): closes socket if a | ||||
| 	connection does not occur | ||||
| 	* irclib.py (ServerConnection.connect): "Changing server" -> | ||||
| 	"Changing servers" (more ubiquitous quit phrase) | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| 2005-01-23  Keltus <keltus@users.sourceforge.net> | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| 	* irclib.py: Removed depreciated apply functions. python-irclib is | ||||
| 	now compatible with Python 1.6 and above. | ||||
| 	* testbot.py: Removed redundant extra start() call | ||||
|

| irclib -- Internet Relay Chat (IRC) protocol client library | ||||
| ----------------------------------------------------------- | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| The home of irclib.py is now: | ||||
| 
 | ||||
|     http://python-irclib.sourceforge.net | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| This library is intended to encapsulate the IRC protocol at a quite | ||||
| low level.  It provides an event-driven IRC client framework.  It has | ||||
| a fairly thorough support for the basic IRC protocol, CTCP and DCC | ||||
| connections. | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| In order to understand how to make an IRC client, I'm afraid you more | ||||
| or less must understand the IRC specifications.  They are available | ||||
| here: | ||||
| 
 | ||||
|     http://www.irchelp.org/irchelp/rfc/ | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| Requirements: | ||||
| 
 | ||||
|   * Python 2.2 or newer. | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| Installation: | ||||
| 
 | ||||
|   * Run "python setup.py install" or copy irclib.py and/or ircbot.py | ||||
|     to an appropriate Python module directory. | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| The main features of the IRC client framework are: | ||||
| 
 | ||||
|   * Abstraction of the IRC protocol. | ||||
|   * Handles multiple simultaneous IRC server connections. | ||||
|   * Handles server PONGing transparently. | ||||
|   * Messages to the IRC server are done by calling methods on an IRC | ||||
|     connection object. | ||||
|   * Messages from an IRC server triggers events, which can be caught | ||||
|     by event handlers. | ||||
|   * Reading from and writing to IRC server sockets are normally done | ||||
|     by an internal select() loop, but the select()ing may be done by | ||||
|     an external main loop. | ||||
|   * Functions can be registered to execute at specified times by the | ||||
|     event-loop. | ||||
|   * Decodes CTCP tagging correctly (hopefully); I haven't seen any | ||||
|     other IRC client implementation that handles the CTCP | ||||
|     specification subtilties. | ||||
|   * A kind of simple, single-server, object-oriented IRC client class | ||||
|     that dispatches events to instance methods is included. | ||||
|   * DCC connection support. | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| Current limitations: | ||||
| 
 | ||||
|   * The IRC protocol shines through the abstraction a bit too much. | ||||
|   * Data is not written asynchronously to the server (and DCC peers), | ||||
|     i.e. the write() may block if the TCP buffers are stuffed. | ||||
|   * Like most projects, documentation is lacking... | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| Unfortunately, this library isn't as well-documented as I would like | ||||
| it to be.  I think the best way to get started is to read and | ||||
| understand the example program irccat, which is included in the | ||||
| distribution. | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| The following files might be of interest: | ||||
| 
 | ||||
|   * irclib.py | ||||
| 
 | ||||
|     The library itself.  Read the code along with comments and | ||||
|     docstrings to get a grip of what it does.  Use it at your own risk | ||||
|     and read the source, Luke! | ||||
| 
 | ||||
|   * irccat | ||||
| 
 | ||||
|     A simple example of how to use irclib.py.  irccat reads text from | ||||
|     stdin and writes it to a specified user or channel on an IRC | ||||
|     server. | ||||
| 
 | ||||
|   * irccat2 | ||||
| 
 | ||||
|     The same as above, but using the SimpleIRCClient class. | ||||
| 
 | ||||
|   * servermap | ||||
| 
 | ||||
|     Another simple example.  servermap connects to an IRC server, | ||||
|     finds out what other IRC servers there are in the net and prints | ||||
|     a tree-like map of their interconnections. | ||||
| 
 | ||||
|   * testbot.py | ||||
| 
 | ||||
|     An example bot that uses the SingleServerIRCBot class from | ||||
|     ircbot.py.  The bot enters a channel and listens for commands in | ||||
|     private messages or channel traffic.  It also accepts DCC | ||||
|     invitations and echos back sent DCC chat messages. | ||||
| 
 | ||||
|   * dccreceive | ||||
| 
 | ||||
|     Receives a file over DCC. | ||||
| 
 | ||||
|   * dccsend | ||||
| 
 | ||||
|     Sends a file over DCC. | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| NOTE: If you're running one of the examples on a unix command line, you need to escape the # symbol in the channel. For example, use \#test instead of #test. | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| Enjoy. | ||||
