Welcome to the PageSix README |

PageSix is an IRC service bot. Written from scratch, it is |
| 4 |
primarily meant to provide services to the various #sourcemage |
| 5 |
channels (but not exclusively) on irc.freenode.net. |

This is my first major programming project in years, and it |
| 8 |
shows in many ways. However, as the saying goes, "it gets me |
| 9 |
from point A to point B." Any comments, complaints, suggestions |
| 10 |
or patches are welcome. PageSix is written in Modula-2, using |
| 11 |
the XDS-x86 Modula-2 / Oberon-2 compiler available at: |

The name PageSix doesn't signify anything at all in the context |
| 16 |
of the Source Mage GNU/Linux metaphor. It reflects my Atari |
| 17 |
programming heritage. In the 8-bit Atari computers, page 6 was |
| 18 |
the area of memory where user machine language/assembly language |
| 19 |
programs resided. |
