Pony is a pony.  For IRC.  A wide variety of realistic pony behaviour is simulated.  If you can't understand why someone would want to implement an IRC pony, then I suggest you download one of my other bots instead.  Or indeed go somewhere else entirely.

This is one of the easiest of my bots to set up - see the INSTALL file for details.  Try petting the pony for starters, and then experiment away! (Or cheat and read the source code.)

Pony is released under the GPL version 2 - see COPYING for details.

Pony includes a copy of the Pircbot Java IRC API, also licensed under the GPL, and available separately from http://www.jibble.org/pircbot.php
