  4. EarwigBot
  5. A thin wrapper for EarwigBot's main bot code, specified by bot_script. This
  6. wrapper will automatically restart the bot when it shuts down (from !restart,
  7. for example). It requests the bot's password at startup and reuses it every
  8. time the bot restarts internally, so you do not need to re-enter the password
  9. after using !restart.
  10. For information about the bot as a whole, see the attached README.md file (in
  11. markdown format!) and the LICENSE for licensing information.
