Eggdrop v1.10.0 *STABLE* is here!

Greetings, Eggheads! After a long year and a half, we have finalized another release of Eggdrop- this one is big enough to warrant rolling over to the next version series, 1.10! What makes it so big, you may ask? We’ll tell you! By far, the biggest improvement is something people have been asking for a...

Eggdrop v1.10.0rc2 is released!

Thanks so much to the community for testing the release candidate! Among a few other small typos and formatting issues, @michaelortmann discovered an issue with how lookups on accountnames are done, @DasBrain found an issue on how we check user records at join, and Village helped us troubleshoot an issue with correctly detecting the Python...

BETA: Python is here!

We did it! The development snapshot of Eggdrop now includes the python module, which, similar to Tcl, embeds a python interpreter into Eggdrop! You can now run your favorite python scripts on Eggdrop with minimal modification! The best part of the python module is that (mostly) you can use the exact same Tcl API commands...

BETA: Autoscripts are here!

Since it’s inception, users have needed to load a Tcl script into Eggdrop by downloading a Tcl file, editing the file to customize settings, and then sourceing that file in the config file. For the upcoming v1.10, the Autoscripts system was added to make this process a little more user-friendly. The autoscripts system helps by:...

BETA: IRCv3 ‘chghost’ bind added to Eggdrop!

We have addd support for the IRCv3 capability ‘CHGHOST’, which allows servers to send a notification when clients change their username or host. This support comes in the form of: This script feature is still considered beta and will likely change again prior to the next stable release. If you have any feedback, bugs, or...

Eggdrop v1.9.5 *STABLE*

Well, we’ve done it again- a new stable release for Eggdrop! This is going to be a “bug fix” version- there isn’t a whole lot in the way of new user-facing features here, but there has been a LOT of work done “under the hood”. We particularly wanted to push this out sooner rather than...

Eggdrop v1.9.5rc1 released!

Happy Valentines Day, Eggheads! We wanted to reaffirm our love for you by giving you this Valentine’s Day treat- not quite as delicious as some fine Belgian Chocolates, but it’s a pretty close second- a new release candidate for Eggdrop! This is going to be a “bug fix” version- there isn’t a whole lot in...

Eggdrop v1.9.4 *STABLE* released!

Ho Ho Ho, Eggheads! Looks like you got an early Christmas present this year! On the tail of 1.9.3, we’re already putting out 1.9.4! We wanted to get this out quickly because, as some of you noticed, we inadvertently moved some internal functionality that affected advanced Tcl scripts. Additionally, we FINALLY tracked down one of...

BETA: systemd service added to Eggdrop!

Currently merged into the develop branch (and will be released with version 1.9.4), long-time user PeGaSuS has contributed an Eggdrop systemd job! To install the service, use the autobotchk script and add the “-systemd” flag to the end of the command. This will install a systemd job that can be controlled with the start, stop,...
