How to Run a Diablo 4.0.0 Bot
Diablo is an open-source IRC bot written in the Perl language, which as of August 2011 has existed at development version 4.0.0 since November 2002. Running the bot is a fairly simple task provided you're familiar with Internet relay chat, consisting primarily of executing a sequence of Perl scripts. The Perl language must naturally be installed on your machine before running the Diablo 4.0.0 bot.
