ModInfo 1.1, ModPut 1.0 and ModServer 1.1
                             by Erik Lindberg


Introduction:
-------------
  ModInfo, ModPut and ModServer is three AREXX scripts to use with AmIRC. 
Their purpose is to enhance the IRC experience for Mod freaks. ModInfo 
is a little script for telling everyone what mod you are playing at the 
moment. ModPut is a script for easy transfer of the mod you are playing
at the moment. ModServer is a script for fetching and querying about
modules.


Requirements:
-------------

  AmIRC
  AREXX
  LhA
  Hippoplayer or Delitracker
  (Mods Anthology and a CDRom for the neat features)


Contents:
---------

  This readme
  ModInfo.amirx
  ModPut.amirx
  ModServer.amirx
  Authornames.txt (Only useful if you've got Mods Anthology)
  Groupnames.txt  (Only useful if you've got Mods Anthology)


Installation:
-------------

1.  Copy the scripts and the names.txt files to the AmIRC rexx directory 
    (preferably). You can keep them elsewhere if you like. 

2.  Edit the authorpath in both ModInfo.amirx and ModServer.amirx to the 
    location you keep the #?names.txt files.

3.  In ModServer.amirx, edit temppath to where you want to keep the lha
     files you're going to send.

4.  In AmIRC, change CTCP request in Setup/Events to: ModServer.amirx %p and
    in Setup/Actions you can have ModInfo and ModPut on one button each and
    the operation /rx ModInfo.amirx and /rx ModPut.amirc on them.

5.  Finished!!!


Usage:
------
  When you push the button labeled ModInfo something like this will appear:

«Action» | Shades is playing art of undulation  by: Fash.

That is if you use Delitracker and Mods Anthology. The output when using
Hippoplayer is something like this:

«Action» | Shades is playing art of undulation size: 203K

The ModServer will act like a server where people can see what module you
are playing. The command is /ctcp yournick modinfo. The output from that
query will be msg:ed to that person.
They will alse be able to fetch modules, both packed and unpacked. The
command to use is /ctcp yournick getmod and /ctcp yournick getmodunpack.

Bugs:
-----

Hmmm... Well... It seems that modnames with spaces in them will cause 
trouble with the getmod command.
