+# GimelBot
+
+**GimelBot** is an IRC bot written in Game Maker 8. The GimelBot project succeeded [PyBot](https://forge.monarch-pass.net/Ikewise/pybot).
+
+## Name and Icon
+
+"GimelBot" is a reference to the fact that it's written in *Game Maker Language* (GML), as well as the Phoenician letter ["gimel"](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gimel) which preceded the Greek "gamma". The icon is in turn based on the [throwing stick](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Throw_stick_(hieroglyph)) hieroglyph which preceded "gimel".
+
+## Building
+
+Requirements:
+- [Gmk-Splitter](https://github.com/Medo42/Gmk-Splitter) by Medo42
+- [Faucet Networking Extension](https://github.com/Medo42/Faucet-Networking-Extension) by Medo42
+- Game Maker 8
+
+The `src` folder must be reassembled into a `.gmk` file using gmk-splitter then exported with GM8.
