IT SURE IS NEAT TO HAVE YOU DROP BY



hi there

THAT'S SO... PLEASE CONTINUE...



thanks for all the fish

I UNDERSTAND...

------------------------------------------------------------------------

-- Joseph Weizenbaum's classic Eliza ported to SciTE Version 2

-- Kein-Hong Man <khman@users.sf.net> 20060905

-- This program is hereby placed into PUBLIC DOMAIN

------------------------------------------------------------------------

-- HOW TO USE

-- * This program is for recreational purposes only. :-)

-- * ClassicEliza function will open a new buffer, then type away...

-- * Eliza recognizes one line of input only (if you are typing very

--   long lines, please consider seeing a real person.)

-- * Eliza will not interfere with other buffers or handlers, and is

--   compatible with extman.

------------------------------------------------------------------------

-- Original ELIZA paper:

--   ELIZA--A Computer Program For the Study of Natural Language

--   Communication Between Man and Machine,

--   Joseph Weizenbaum, 1966, Communications of the ACM Volume 9,

--   Number 1 (January 1966): 36-35.

--   URL: http://i5.nyu.edu/~mm64/x52.9265/january1966.html

------------------------------------------------------------------------

-- A copy of the original BASIC source of this Lua version of ELIZA can

-- be found at Josep Subirana's ELIZA download page.

------------------------------------------------------------------------

-- NOTES

-- * Modifications made to fit the program into SciTE...

-- * For historical accuracy, functionality is more-or-less identical,

--   as is the use of an all upper-case alphabet for output.

-- * There is really no point extending this program. Many other more

--   advanced Eliza-type programs exist. Good candidates for porting are

--   EMACS' doctor.el and Perl's Chatbot-Eliza.

-- * One difference is keyword are matched by iterating through a hash

--   array, so matching order will be different from initialization order.

-- * In order to avoid keeping any internal state, this Eliza does not

--   remember your name.

-- * Input is now case-insensitive.

-- * The original used backticks for apostrophes, this was fixed.

-- * A couple of spelling mistakes in strings and comments fixed.

-- Eliza main routine, processes user input

-- * Input is case insensitive. No punctuation except apostrophes,

--   as in: don't you're i'm i've you've.
