php irc bot for posting wiki content

Journal by crutchy

i was inspired to work on this after i saw mention of piping irc to the wiki @ http://wiki.soylentnews.org/wiki/CommunitySupport#Projects

it's been tested some but is still a work in progress.
getting around the anti-spam/anti-bot features of wiki is something i'll have to consult a wizard on.

i'm not a professional programmer so it probably sucks.
any criticisms etc are welcome, and if i can be bothered i may even take them on board, or you can do a pull request if you feel like having a play.

this is my first open source code file :-)

    Nice work. I've often wondered how IRC bots function and this is a clear and simple example that should help anyone get started who wanted to make one (assuming they speak php).

    Might I suggest some comments here and there, to save even more time.
