PHP-IRC is a modular IRC bot written in PHP5 with a combination of object based/oriented programming. It operates under several different platforms with the purpose of automating common information related tasks on IRC. There are two main reasons that PHP was selected as the primary language. First off, I wanted to provide novice programmers a way to code their own functions and abilities into a powerful platform without having to worry about such things as memory management and compilers. Secondly, I wanted to do something that no one has done before--create a fully featured bot in php. I don't know if I will ever complete the second objective, but I will keep on developing, as it will always be the main goal of this project.
