lyrebot

Lyrebot is a tiny IRC bot for forwarding messages to offline users.

You can build it using car:

$ car reqs              # List dependencies.
$ opam install ...      # Install the ones you don't have.
$ car opt               # Build, output to ./main.native.

./main.native -help displays a help message:

$ ./main.native -help
Usage: lyrebot [options]
Lyrebot IRC Bot

  -help     Print a synopsis of options.
  -host     The host to connect to.
  -service  The service or port to connect to.
  -nick     The nick to use. Also used for realname, user, etc.
  -channel  The channel to connect to.

Then when you send a message like this (in the channel or as a private message):

<jyc`> @jyc Long time no see! How are you doing?

... you get a confirmation as a private message:

<lyrebot> I'll forward your message the next time jyc logs in.

... and jyc gets a private message the next time he's online:

<lyrebot> *** You've got mail! ***
<lyrebot> 10:14 2/3 (5d ago)  <jyc`> @jyc Long time no see! How are you doing?
