# ircwatcher - watch an IRC stream and do things when
#              interesting things occur

# This script demonstrates the use of dispatch table. One
# regular expression matching everthing, and then handing
# off the captured submatches to a callback.
#
# Try changing the read of STDIN to DATA for a quick demo.
