Konversation Kompanion

Note: KK is officially on hold until I have the resources and time to create a better (and more practical) application. See this post for info.

Konversation Kompanion is a script, mostly for me to learn about programming with Python, with several “add-on” functions for Konversation - the premiere IRC client for KDE. There may be some practical functions added later but generally this is a “fun” script.

The initial release will add “slap” type actions and “praise” type actions which I call “Nasty” and “Nice” :-D The script is called on the command line like this:

/exec kk <command> <user>

In command aliases in the configuration you can set “/kk” to be equivalent to “/exec kk” and save some typing, also I prefer to set a quick button for commands and use the userlist to click my victim, this screenshot shows my button config with the “nasty” and “nice” actions as buttons (You can rename the buttons whatever you like of course):

Quick Buttons

This is a fairly small project so I won’t set-up an elaborate site - just post suggestions and bug reports as comments here.

The available commands (as of the current version) are:

  • nasty - performs a nasty action on the selected user
  • nice - performs a nice action on the selected user
  • revenge - performs a nasty action and indicates that it is in revenge for something else

Plan for KK:

Version - Goals

0.1 - (Early test version) Get program output speaking to Konversation (limited release 4/11/07)

0.2 - A tidy version of the script with, “nasty”, “nice” and “revenge” commands (planned release xx/11/07)

0.x - Possible future additions: small gui(?), a “mood alert” function, selective multi-channel messaging (”The Future”)

Installing:

Simply place the file “kk” into your Konversation script directory and next time you restart Konversion the script commands will be available.
