 -------------------------------------------------------------------------

 Golden Emerod is an IRC channel bot written in ARexx by D.F. Duck for the
 Amiga computer. Golden Emerod has taken almost a year of coding, revising,
 and testing to make it what it is today.

 Golden Emerod is not a war bot. There are no flood or takeover commands.
 This bot was written to be a well mannered and personable channel bot.
 Although, if the bot is an IRCOP, it can stand up for itself fairly well.


 - Some Features -

o  Stand-alone, runs in a shell window and displays all channel activity.

o  10 user access levels.

o  Op friends when they join the channel.

o  Built in message delivery system allows leaving short messages to known
   users that are not currently online. The messages are delivered to them
   when they join the channel.

o  Keep track of the last time a known users was on the channel.

o  FAQ (Frequently Asked Question) database. View, Add, Delete. Option to
   send a FAQ to another user.

o  Do Aminet searches by keyword.

o  Built in monitor notifies bot operators of who is using the bot and what
   they are doing.

o  Automatic timed removal of any ban made by the bot.

o  Optional plugin commands that run as a background process so the bot is
   free to perform other tasks. (ain't multitasking wonderful? ¦)

o  Creates html log file of channel chatter including a URL grabber that
   automaticly converts URLs into hyper links. (Pro version only)

o  Two programs are included for local control of the bot, you don't have
   to be logged on IRC yourself to control it; EI is a one-shot command
   entry that sends the command to Emerod and exits (can be used from a
   cron). EIC is an input console that stays open and accepts your input
   of bot commands.

o  68 different commands avaiable in Pro version when bot is IRCOP.

o  If Golden Emerod has IRCOP status it knows it and adds several
   additional features including KILL, CONNECT, SQUIT and a psuedo-kline
   for really obnoxious trouble users. Can also send a GLine request to
   an uworld server if it has IRCOP access to one. (Undernet, ARCNet)

o  Can set the channel topic and modes. And can protect them from being
   changed by unknown or low level users.

o  Auto-reconnects to irc server when connection is lost.

o  Configuration files with many user defined options to customize the
   bot to suit your needs. Set up different configuration files for every
   irc servers you want to run the bot on.

o  Much more...
