This is a plugin for the pidgin / finch im client.

The plugin allows you to pass a buddies messages to the Cleverbot website and have cleverbot reply.

At the moment it is Linux only, at some stage I might try to compile a windows dll.

You will need openssl, curl, GTK and the development headers for pidgin to compile it.

Installation

To compile, run make.

This should compile clever_chat.so.

To install this to ~/.purple/plugins run make install.

You can also copy it manually.

If you do not want to compile it, you can try downloading the compiled file from the downloads section.

Usage

To start sending messages for a buddy to clever bot, right click the buddy and click Start Clever Chat (Or select the option from the conversation menu).

To stop, right click and click Stop Cleverbot.
