I'm looking for a highly configurable IRC bot. Only requisite: it must not be a plugin to an existing IRC client like mIRC.

Which is where I'm having trouble. IRC bots a plenty, but almost all of them are scripts for mIRC or Xchat. And I don't use any of those. And no, I'm not going to switch.

What I'm looking for is a program that I can start separately, it connects to the channels on the server of my choosing and sits there, doing what I instruct it to do.

Eggdrops are the way to go.

You start with the pure basic which you can configure, add plugins and customize in detail.

Looking at the instructions, this is meant for Linux/BSD. It says for Windows to, but there are no instructions for it. – WebDevHobo Aug 11 '10 at 16:15

For Windows, there are Windrops... See windrop.sourceforge.net/faq.html – Tom Wijsman Aug 11 '10 at 20:06

I've got a PHP IRC Bot in development - find it on Facebook "Savant PHP IRC Bot".

Not a plugin, but does require PHP and PHP-CLI.
