+# PyBot
+
+**PyBot** was an attempt to create an IRC bot despite the fact that I'd only gotten through a couple of chapters of Python programming at the time. I *really* wasn't ready and they didn't work great.
+
+- `rawbot.py` is the most basic script of the bunch. It dumps received data to the console raw.
+- `pybot_old.py`, `pybot1.0.py`, and `pybot1.2.py` were various iterations that attempted to format received data.
+- `pybot.py` is version 2.0 of the script and was given the name [**"Anedepami"**](https://glitchcity.wiki/Anedepami), following the established naming scheme of Maralis and Derxwna's [fivequestionmarks](https://infinitypedia.org/wiki/Fivequestionmarks) and Kuschelyagi's [tenquestionmarks](https://forge.monarch-pass.net/elsanctum/tenquestionmarks).
+
+The PyBot project was abandoned because I couldn't get them to keep up with a heavy chat load while also formatting the received data in a way I could work with. It inspired and was succeeded by GimelBot.
