Bit off-topic, but Eggdrop was the very first thing I ever compiled from source WAY back in the later 1990's. I figured out how to hack together a (absolutely terrible) TCL script to monitor #fatefiles on EFNet for messages by certain nicks (a few XDCC bots) and echo them to another private channel. It was trash but it worked. One of my earliest experiences that I can remember with any sort of real code. Ahhhh, the good 'ol days.... great times. :-)

Me too! Eggdrop with TCL/TK on Undernet, with fbsql as mysql client. Rudimentary chatting with the bot and getting it to answer preset commands, looking up records in the database. It was frustrating, but when it worked it felt glorious.
