IBM Sametime Bot

A chatbot integrated to IBM Sametime messaging app. You can start the app at any windows client. Once started all your messages would be replied by the bot.

Working

This is made up of 2 parts,

Java Code

The Java code does 4 things,

1. Maintains and uses the bots.
2. Activates the current chat to reply in it, when a new ping is recieved.
3. Reads the messages dumped in a local log file.
4. Talks to the Auto-It Script to write responses. (Nope, you cant write them back to the log file. You have to actually send them!)

Auto-It Script

The Auto-It Scipt does 1 job,

1. Writes the responses back to the active chat window and send the reply back.
