Need a Perl enthusiast for about an hour or two of work.
Need the barebones of a yahoo games bot developed completely in Perl (or Perl CGI). Perl script should be runnable on Windows and Linux.
What it needs:
To take a list of Yahoo game pages and go into the rooms. Should scrape the entire page and enter all of them. (I will pick apart which single ones I want later on, but just simply scrape the games page and launch the tables).
Stay logged into the chatroom until the script stops.
An example of how to READ text from the main room AND post text to the game room.
note: this does not open up game tables or send/recieve private messages. It just logins to yahoo, launches the tables and stay there.
What it will be:
In the end, I will be making it into a trivia/quiz type bot myself. All I need is the barebones working.
