paroxysm
========

`paroxysm` is a bot for [internet relay chat
(IRC)](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internet_Relay_Chat) that lets you store
small pieces of information, called *factoids*, and retrieve them later. It's
useful for organising frequently-used information to avoid repeating oneself in
a busy chatroom, as well as making little todo lists or notes to self in a
private chatroom.

It was directly inspired by the
[LearnDB](https://github.com/crawl/sequell/blob/master/docs/learndb.md)
functionality offered in `##crawl` on chat.freenode.net, and uses similar
syntax.

## Usage instructions

Will come soon; the project is very much still in beta, and is subject to
change.
