Greetings, list. I'm attempting to wrap my brain around Twisted for the purposes of creating a simple OSCAR bot. The purpose of this bot will be to send a broadcast announcement to a mutable list of screennames to help with admining gaming servers. Every example I've seen of OSCAR bots has the bot log in and respond to all sorts of messages that it gets sent, staying logeed in the entire time. My needs are simpler; the bot need only log in, send its messages, and log right back out. From what I can suss out, this would still necessitate a connectTCP() call, but it doesn't need a reactor.run(). My trouble is that I don't know exactly what it WOULD require beyond connection (IE, where to put the sendMessage, whether to create callbacks, etc. etc.). I also don't quite know how I would pass different lists to the bot class for the broadcast, but that's a secondary concern that I can work around inefficiently if I have to (I think). If someone knows of some keywords I'm missing for my google search, or if they can otherwise point me in the direction of an example of what I'm attempting to do, I would be most appreciative. Thank you all for your time. Sean
