What happens when a C# Chatterbot writes a song? Well, I’ll tell you this: it isn’t a masterpiece!
Using my C# Chatterbot, Kon, to write all the lyrics and the tone of the song, I have created an awful 52 second-long “rap” entitled: Yo Dawg! Click here to download it
I would say “enjoy!” but I’m not sure that’s possible. XD
Version 1.5.2 is now available for download!
As mentioned, I’ve added the auto perform stuff to this version. Since making that preview post, I’ve actually added a little more to it. The commands recognized are: JOIN, MSG, SAY, RAW and WAIT. Also, if you use MYBOTNAME (in all caps like that) it will replace it with the bot’s current nick on the server.
Other things added/updated/fixed in this version: The bot can now recognize multiple admins in the config file (just add more <admin> than one like you do with <user>), two new admin level commands (!msg and !raw), the filter was updated a little, and I fixed two bugs relating to RandomTalk.
Overall I’m pretty proud of this version. Hopefully Kon will continue to improve.
This is just a quick update to the site to let people know that the Kaiou Updater has been updated to version 1.0.2. It should be working again, for the the very few people left who still use it.

This is just a quick update to let everyone know that I have added the auto perform code into Kon. This post will be a short explanation of how it works so that when the version is released you’ll know how to do it.
Right now the commands will be read from perform.kon which is a plain text file that can be opened in any plain text editor (notepad works fine for it). The commands that are recognized for the auto perform are: JOIN, SAY, MSG and WAIT.
JOIN – Joins a channel
SAY and MSG both work the same way here and lets you have the bot send a message to someone or say something to a channel when the bot joins the server.
WAIT – This command causes the bot to pause for a few seconds inbetween commands. Use this if you have a lot of commands set in the auto perform so that the bot doesn’t flood the server and get booted off.
So what you’ll do is open kon.perform in your favorite plain text editor and add a command one to a line. For example:
JOIN #KonBot
MSG NICKSERV identify mypassword
WAIT
SAY #KonBot hello all my peeps!
And then save it. When the bot is run the next time, it’ll automatically do all of those commands. I’ll include a perform.kon.example file that will basically show exactly that in case you forget.
I’m not sure when I’ll release this update. I want to test it a little while longer and make sure there’s no issues with it before I do. But I’m sure it’ll be soon. :)
Hey everyone!
Kon version 1.5.1 is now up and ready for anyone who wants to download it. This version doesn’t add a whole lot but it fixes an issue with the ident and Real Name of the bot. The only other thing it does is add a /MSG command that allows the bot owner to message a non-channel (i.e. Chanserv, Nickserv, other users, stuff like that).
Kon seems to be attracting a lot more attention lately. I first just want to say thanks to everyone who has downloaded and tried it out. Thanks to those who sent me email with suggestions on what to do with the bot. I do appreciate it. With that said, I just wanted to say real quick that the IRC side of Kon is pretty lacking. When I first wrote the bot I never imagined it to be on par with something like mIRC or any other full IRC client. It was really just programmed to be a chatterbot. So please keep that in mind when you find that the bot is lacking something on the IRC side (like being able to auto-perform commands). I’ll add what I can when I have the time.
In the next version I’d like to add some kind of perform that will let the bot automatically join a bunch of channels and perform commands (like identifying to chanserv and nickserv). I don’t know when the next version will come though, so please be patient. :)
With all that said, here’s the links:
This is quite possibly the funniest Youtube video I’ve seen in quite a long time..
I have decided to go ahead and release what I’ve been working on with Kon. This version is similar to the last version of Kon Offline that I released in that it combines the two lb brain files back into one file and utilizes kon.brain for its “Answer Search”. For the change log for this version and the download links, continue after the cut.
