A Guide to the IRC Bots of #lojban (and #ckule)
Lojban assistance
- valsi
- This is a bidirectional Lojban-English dictionary. It works from a dump of Jbovlaste, so it may not be completely up to date.
- Run by donri (source).
- You can invoke valsi in the channel by prefixing a message with "valsi ", or send a private message to the bot (with no prefix).
- The content of the message is just a word. If it's a Lojban word, you'll get its definition. If it's an English word, you'll get a list of suggested translations.
- Accepted options for Lojban word lookup: (you can give up to one option, in parentheses, e.g. "valsi lercu'aca'a (components)")
- affix
- Get the affix (rafsi) form of the word.
- class
- Get the selma'o (grammatical category) of the word.
- type
- Get the type (cmavo/gismu/lujvo/etc) of the word.
- notes
- Return the notes field of the definition (without this option it isn't shown).
- cll
- Get the link to the section of the CLL that discusses the word (not always accurate).
- url
- Get the link to Vlasisku's page for the word.
- components
- Break a lujvo into its component gismu (works on nonce lujvo).
- rafsi
- Treat the word as a rafsi for the purposes of the search (many cmavo are also rafsi of other words).
- You can also send queries in vlasisku's internal query language, like "valsi class:BAI" or "valsi affix:ka'i".
- gerna
- This is a grammar checker based on jbofi'e.
- Run by donri (source, same as valsi).
- You can invoke gerna in the channel by prefix a message with "gerna ", or send a private message to the bot (with no prefix).
- The message is just a Lojban sentence. If it parses, you'll get the structure. If it doesn't parse or jbofi'e crashes, it will say "not grammatical" and try to show you which word broke the parse.
- There are no options.
- camxes, cipra
- These are parser bots based on camxes. camxes parses regular Lojban while cipra has (most of?) the ELG implemented.
- Who runs them? It must be different people since they are sometimes on at different times. Here is the source (based on camxes.js).
- You send this bot a sentence by prefixing it with the bot's name and a colon (the colon is mandatory, unlike other bots), e.g. "camxes: coi".
- Accepted options:
- +s
- Show the selma'o of each word.
- -f
- Don't show terminators.
- -f+s (not +s-f)
- Both of the above.
Other
- sidju
- This is an instance of the Phenny IRC bot.
- Run by Tene (source).
- xorban
- Xorban is a parser bot for another logical language (you guessed it, called Xorban). It's actually the same bot as camxes and cipra but with a different grammar.
- Run by selpa'i.
- mensi, livla
- These bots start talking when the channel is dead, so that there are no long stretches of time without Lojban being transmitted over the Internet.
- Run by gleki (source).
- livla repeats sentences from Tatoeba, while mensi has a list of canned replies.
