STARTING BOT IN USERFILE CREATION MODE.
Telnet to the bot and enter 'NEW' as your nickname.
OR go to IRC and type: /msg Code hello
This will make the bot recognize you as the master.

Start the bot and leave it running in the foreground. Observe the messages the bot gives in the shell.

eggdrop -mnt eggdrop.conf

The nick could also be used making the bot use the altnick, If the altnick is used it will prolly have a nick with a number behind it.
