willie - A highly customizable Internet Relay Chat bot

willie  runs  a  bot  that provides some useful (and some useless) commands in one or more Internet Relay
       Chat channels. It reads configuration options, such as the network to connect to, channels to  join,  and
       more from a config file specified by the -c option. If no config file is specified, ~/.willie/default.cfg
       is used. If the configuration file being used does not exist, a brief configuration wizard will be run to
       set  up  the  basic options, and optionally set up a database for user data and any modules that may need
       configuration.

       In most cases, simply running willie will be sufficient; the bot will start after initial  configuration,
       and will run until it is told to quit through IRC.

       -h or --help
            Show a brief summary of these options.

       -c   filename or --config= filename
            Run  Willie  with  the  configuration  options  from the specified file. An absolute pathname can be
            given, or the name of a file within the configuration directory may also be given.  ~/.willie is the
            preferred location, but this and -c will also look in ~/.jenni and  ~/.phenny  for  legacy  reasons.
            When the suffix of the file is .cfg , it may be omitted.

       -d or --fork
            Run  Willie  in  the  background. The bot will safely run in the background, and can later be killed
            with -q or -d

       -q or --quit
            Gracefully quit a daemonized instance of Willie. This option determines the instance to quit by  the
            name  of the config file given by the -c option, if used, so the same argument must be given with -c
            when using -q.

       -k or --kill
            Terminates a daemonized instance of Willie. This option determines the instance to kill by the  name
            of  the config file given by the -c option, if used, so the same argument must be given with -c when
            using -k.

       -l or --list
            List all config files found in the usual configuration  file  directories:  ~/.willie~/.jenni  and
            ~/.phenny

       -m or --migrate
            Attempt  to migrate a configuration file for an older version of the bot to the new format. Versions
            prior to 3.1 used a configuration file written in Python, which can be converted with this tool.

       --quiet
            Suppress all output from the bot to the terminal.

       -w or --configure-all
            Run the initial configuration wizard. This can be run with -c to  configure  a  specified  file,  or
            without it to work on the default file.

       --configure-modules
            Check  for  modules  with configuration options, and allow the user to modify those options. Changes
            will be added to the default file, or the file given to -c if used.

       --configure-database
            Run a wizard for configuring the user information database options. Changes will  be  added  to  the
            default file, or the file given to -c if used.
