| These are hook scripts for the CIA notification service at <http://cia.vc/> |
| |
| They are maintained by Eric S. Raymond <esr@thyrsus.com>. There is an |
| upstream resource page for them at <http://www.catb.org/esr/ciabot/>, |
| but they are unlikely to change rapidly. |
| |
| You probably want the Python version; it's faster, more capable, and |
| better documented. The shell version is maintained only as a fallback |
| for use on hosting sites that don't permit Python hook scripts. |
| |
| You will find installation instructions for each script in its comment |
| header. |
