psyBNC is an irc bouncer which holds the connection to the irc-server.

This program is useful for people who cannot be on irc all the time. Its used to keep a connection to irc and your irc client connected, or also allows to act as a normal bouncer by disconnecting from the irc server when the client disconnects.

Being installed on a shell with a permanently connected machine you stay connected
as long you want or until the program crashes *g*.

Due to the fact this programm allows multiple Users at the same time (just change
MAXUSER in the config.h file to get less or more possible Users) you can also trade
kinds of connections with other people running only one backgroundtask at all.

Thats very interesting by using shells which prohibit more than one backgroundtask.

Remember, sometimes admins also care about traffic, traffic by one client connected
to irc is approx. 170 MBytes of traffic per month.

Here are some key features of "psyBNC":
Possibility of linking the bouncer (u can use all vhosts of the linked bouncers (if allowed))
automatically setting MODE +i-s nick on connect to prevent the filling of the logs with spam
Crypting of Passwords

Nicks will be saved
