Nes Video Agent

Who is NesVideoAgent?

right NesVideoAgent is a humble drone of BisqBot, created in 2004-04-25.

NES video agent

Its primary purpose is to sit on the IRC Channel and report on everything that happens on the discussion forums.

It also tells us when new submissions have been made or new movies have been published.

(Actually, these features are implemented in BisqBot, not NesVideoAgent. Explained below.)

Scapegoat

The secondary meaning of its life is to be the one to blame when something is done on the server-side, such as deleting 400 accounts of the forum users.

As a tertiary function, it works as a gateway to BisqBot, allowing some utilities to be used at #nesvideos. These functions are not implemented in NesVideoAgent itself. NesVideoAgent is just a relay, which is why occassionally the answers are given through some other client (such as Bisqwit's own) instead of NesVideoAgent.
  • Calculators:
    • .cl ― Google-style calculator with units (implemented with GNU Units)
    • .cm ― Maxima style math utility; does polynomial solving and a lot more
    • .ce ― Obsolete engineering units calculator
  • .google (Google search)
  • .vk (currency converter)
  • .seen, .geoip, .maa (user/country search)
  • .dice, .predict, .pk, .geos, .kakasi, .japlookup, .explain, .rome, .luku, .milloin, .time, .maproute and more… (various toys not documented here)

The tools have been developed by Bisqwit, although many of them use freely available programs/webservices as their backend – such as .cc which uses PARI/GP.

NesVideoAgent runs ircII, but this is not relevant, for the reason explained above.
