QuickFox.net IRC <-> Second life gateway/relay system Version 0.9.9.3.4

A free two way communications relay system relaying between QuickFox.net IRC network (http://www.quickfox.net/) and Second life.

This device is a utility allowing IRC users to send messages between IRC users and Second life. The concept of the service is rather simple - it links between a specific area in the world of Second Life to a particular IRC channel and exchanges text among the people located on both sides of the link.

The system is capable of falling back between HTTP, HTTP-in and XML-RPC requests for extra redundancy against failures in Second life.

The linking system is a bit more advanced than your average relay bot. Each user on Second Life is represented by a username on IRC, for example, "Ash Qin" on Second Life will be represented on IRC as "SL-Ash|Qin". Here is a sample /WHOIS record for your interest:

SL-Ash|Qin is user@0f15391e-105f-4b05-91e3-48b73c60ae64.key.syscast.net * Ash Qin
SL-Ash|Qin using secondlife.com Second Life gateway
SL-Ash|Qin End of /WHOIS list.

Because of IRC nickname emulation, it is possible to emulate actions like kicking properly, being passed to Second Life as a eject or teleport home. One can ignore specific users that are being a annoyance. This is also just a more usable just way of communicating between different systems.

Should you wish to link a channel of your own with a Second Life area, you will need a registered channel on quickfox.net (registration is free, if you need help, join #help - http://www.quickfox.net/channels/searchirc?help). Once you have a registered channel, get a copy of the free device from here, just enter your channel and channel password into the Settings notecard, drop it into the relay device and everything should be up and relaying.
