Ruby modules needed for rbot
============================
Core requirements
bdb (berkley db) http://raa.ruby-lang.org/project/bdb/
(which requires libdb4.x or better, formerly from
www.sleepycat.com, now at
http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/berkeley-db/index.html)
Most of the time you don't need to compile anything.
If you're running Linux, your distribution should
have a libdb-ruby packaged (or similar).
For Windows instructions, check at the bottom
of this file.
net/http 1.2+
net/https (for debian, this will also need libopenssl-ruby)
socket
uri
Useful but fallback provided
ruby-gettext 1.8.0+ http://www.yotabanana.com/hiki/ruby-gettext.html?ruby-gettext
optional; if installed rbot can use localized messages
htmlentities http://htmlentities.rubyforge.org/
optional; if installed rbot will use it to decode
HTML entities; if missing, an internal table with
the most common HTML entities will be used instead
hpricot http://code.whytheluckystiff.net/hpricot/
optional, if installed rbot will used it to find
the first paragraph in HTML files; if missing,
regular expressions will be used instead

function)
bash, digg, slashdot, freshmeat, forecast:
REXML

Running rbot on win32
=====================
You can install Ruby using the One-Click Ruby installer, available from
http://rubyinstaller.rubyforge.org/
You can find a precompiled version of the bdb package for ruby here
http://ftp.ruby-lang.org/pub/ruby/binaries/mingw/1.8/ext/bdb-0.5.1-i386-mingw32-1.8.tar.gz
When you unpack the archive (e.g. using WinZip or 7-Zip or any other tool
of your choice) you'll notice that it contains the following directory structure:
usr
+---local
+---doc
+---lib
and you have to move the doc and lib folders (and all their contents) in the folder
where you installed Ruby (typically C:\Ruby\)
