What do I need to run an Eggdrop?
• Some sort of Unix account — it does not compile for Windows or Mac machines, nor will it probably ever compile there • Pretty good knowledge of IRC and Unix, including how to compile programs and what DCC chat is, at absolute minimum • About 500k of disk space, or more, depending on your system. • The Tcl libraries — Most systems should have Tcl on them by now — you can check by trying the command “tclsh”. If it works, you will be given a “%” prompt, and you can type “exit” to exit the program. That means Tcl is on your system. If tclsh doesn’t load, then Tcl probably isn’t on your system, and you will need to ftp it.
