Slimmed down Eggdrop

Post by QBasicer »

I recently tried to slim down an eggdrop as far as I could, but was unable to fit it on a floppy (about 5.8megs). NOw what I want to do is put the binary files that do not change onto a CD, and all the configuration and dynamic files onto a floppy.

How do I tell the eggdrop where all the dynamic files are, and which ones are they? I know how to tell it where it's config file is. Maybe the best approach would be to create a ramdisk (providing the minimal floppy distro provides it) and launch all the files that way. Thanks!

static are /txt, /modules, /help, /language, the binary itself and usually the tcls (including the config), however you might want to change them, but usually the bot wont.
dynamic is usually all the rest ^-^
you could have saved some space stripping the binary, a stripped static binary has only about 1mb ^^.
