"""
EarwigBot's IRC Front-end Component

The IRC frontend runs on a normal IRC server and expects users to interact with
it and give it commands. Commands are stored as "command classes", subclasses
of BaseCommand in irc/base_command.py. All command classes are automatically
imported by irc/command_handler.py if they are in irc/commands.
