Chatbot is done

I finished writing the chatbot that I was working on. It consists of a set of scripts to prepare the data, and another script that listens for incoming messages and responds. You can get the code and an overview of how it works here.

Obviously, I’m not publishing my chat logs. Use your own. It is designed to work with Pidgin’s HTML-like format for chat logs, but it could be modified to work on almost any corpus. I really should clean up things like the string cleaning routines, but it worked for class, and that’s what actually matters.
