Well, PING/PONG and others and messages like any others. Just not
printed out by clients actually. There's nothing concurrent here, so
that's just a dispatch for processing lines read.

Telnet is all you need actually. IRC is very simple, I had written a
Perl bot from scratch in approx. 20 to 50 LoC when I was in high school.

Some bots I'm used to have don't log (or don't show) messages that begin with
[nolog].
I believe we'd prefer (nolog foo ...) for aesthetics reasons :)

Too much hassle for nothing. Simple threaded evaluator with a length
limiting output procedure and restricted IOs should be more than enough.

The university too (if it's legal. I'd have to check that out).
