Computer bot

Original is here and on my private server. Mirrors can update irregularly.


This is a bot for Telegram. It haven't got much possibilities, but this code can be used in other bots.

Bot can use locale of Telegram client (unlike much bots) and use it or fallback to English.

Bot uses an OOP-style of Lua as described on Wikipedia.

Maybe I will rewrite bot's core to C but here already so many Lua code.
