Net::AIM v1.01 README $Date: 2001/01/24 22:25:30 $ Description: This module is an implementation of the AOL Instant Messenger TOC protocol. I've written and rewritten almost all the code. It works fairly and is pretty reliable. The intent for this version was to make an easily usable module for creating AIM bots. At this point the code is pretty straight forward so it should be easily understandable unlike the previous version. Prerequisites: Net::AIM requires Perl version 5.004 or higher to install and run. Also IO::* is needed. The latest version of Perl can be found at: http://www.perl.com/CPAN/src/latest.tar.gz (for UNIX), or at http://www.perl.com/CPAN/ports/ for various non-Unix machines. Installation: perl Makefile.PL make make install pray To make it run from this dir, just do the following: ln -s . Net ./aimtest Included Scripts: A test script (aimtest) is included which is similiar to the Net::IRC irctest script. Ahhh who am I kidding it is practically irctest after "perl -pi -e's/irc/aim/g'". Just run ./aimtest provided perl is located in /usr/bin Usage: ./aimtest Copyright info: This module copyright (c) 1999 Aryeh Goldsmith . All rights reserved.
