Everything2 support for irssi

(Back to Slithering Perl Horrors)

Nyees, the Horrors shall Slither Once More!

This script is more or less of a clone of my Everything2 support for sirc script, to be used with Irssi IRC client...

It has similiar functionality: /gonode will go to last-mentioned node (said in public place with [brackets] around it), and /gonode nodename will go to that node.

Bugs and restrictions in 1.0:

• Doesn't allow pipelink abuse =)
• Doesn't seem to read the stuff from actions (/mes and such)...
• No theming.
• Settings are not used. (See comments for pathetic explanations...) To use another web browser (and not gnome-moz-remote), you need to edit the script.

This ought to be published on my web page, but until then, this is the only place where you can get it...
