Tcl scripts for Eggdrop

I’ve written some somewhat useless tcl scripts for the Eggdrop IRC bot. Use at your own risk ;)

• Battle
  Version 1.0 (2008-03-19)
  Takes two or more arguments, “battles” them and displays the result. Excellent for difficult decisions, and totally Chuck Norris allied. Example:

  22:59 <    morbaq> !battle eggs,bacon

  22:59 <      Leif> morbaq: eggs: 63% - bacon: 37%

• Reminder
  Version 0.2 (2008-03-19)
  A reminder manager that you can use to remember important things. Supports setting, viewing and cancelling reminders. Supports multiple users and multiple channels. Example:

  15:23 <    morbaq> !remind morbaq "10 min" Make coffee!

  15:23 <      Leif> morbaq: New reminder at 10 min: "Make coffee!"

  15:33 <      Leif> morbaq: --REMINDER-- Make coffee!

• WordOfTheDay
  Version 0.3 (2008-05-02)
  Downloads the word of the day from Urbandictionary.com and displays it on the channel. Example:

  02:47 <    morbaq> !word

  02:47 <      Leif> Word of the day is: Barsexual

  02:47 <      Leif> A college-age girl who kisses other girls in bars and clubs,

                     usually for  attention and the approval of men.

Bash scripts

I’m the lazy programmer who prefers to spend three hours writing a script for something I could do manually in 10 minutes, only because it might come in handy sometime later. If you find these scripts useful in some way, please use them so my hacking wasn’t completely in vain.

• iCalExport
  Exports all events from an Apple iCal Library into one .ics file per logical calendar. Useful for exporting your iCal events to e.g. Google Calendar when you don’t have access to iCal. Your Mac might have broken down and all you got left is the backup you took in single user mode before the Apple people swiped your disk. Or something…
• Watermark
  Applies a watermark image to all photos in the specified directory. Useful if you’re about to upload your photos to a gallery and have already exported them from iPhoto or whatever as 640×480 pixel images into a temporary directory and still want to mark them with your name, url or something.

AppleScripts

• iTunes Playlist to MPD
  Replicates the current playlist in iTunes to MPD (either local or remote). Perfect for creating an MPD playlist with the same songs as e.g. iTunes Genius produces. Also read this blog post about the script.
