NAME

       supybot - A robust and user friendly Python IRC bot

SYNOPSIS

       supybot [options] configFile

DESCRIPTION

       Supybot is a robust, user-friendly, and programmer-friendly Python IRC bot.  It aims to be
       an adequate replacement for most existing IRC bots.   It  includes  a  very  flexible  and
       powerful  ACL  system  for controlling access to commands, as well as more than 50 builtin
       plugins providing around 400 actual commands.

OPTIONS

       --version
              Show version of program.

       -h, --help
              Show summary of options.

       -P, --profile
              Enable profiling.

       -n NICK, --nick=NICK
              Nick the bot should use.

       -u USER, --user=USER
              Full username the bot should use.

       -i IDENT, --ident=IDENT
              Ident the bot should use.

       -d, --daemon
              Determines whether the bot will daemonize.  This is a no-op on non-POSIX systems.

       --allow-default-owner
              Determines whether the bot  will  allow  its  defaultCapabilities  not  to  include
              "-owner",  thus  giving  all  users the owner capability by default.  This is dumb,
              hence we require a command-line option to enable it.

       --allow-root
              Determines whether the bot will be allowed to run as root.  You do not  want  this.
              Do not do it.  Even if you think you want it, you do not.

       --debug
              Determines whether some extra debugging stuff will be logged by this script.
