Just a bump to remind people that there is a channel for rtk

server: irc://irc.rizon.net
channel: #rtk

If you have an IRC client installed (mIRC, chatzilla, XChat etc) this link should take you right to the chat room: irc://irc.rizon.net/rtk

I would like to advise everyone that this thread is being bumped in order to increase the awareness of the IRC channel that we have going at irc.rizon.net. The channel is #RTK and we'd all like for more people to join in. Thank you.

What is IRC channel?

kick

Hi. We now have a new bot in the irc channel, its source code is on http://github.com/Christoph-D/Japanese-Tools .
It can do RTK lookups (heisig number - keyword - kanji in all directions), jmdict lookups, google translate and automatic reading generation, using mecab just like Anki.

To get a better picture of it, it looks like this:
<Christoph> !rtk 日本語
<rtkbot> #12: day 日 | #211: book 本 | #347: word 語
<Christoph> !rtk wonder
<rtkbot> #1987: wonder 驚, #2704: I wonder 哉
<Christoph> !kana 日本語のページを検索
<rtkbot> 日本語[にほんご]　の　ページ[ぺーじ]　を　検索[けんさく]
<Christoph> !ja 検索
<rtkbot> 検索 [けんさく] (n,vs), 1. looking up (e.g. a word in a dictionary), 2. retrieval (e.g. data), 3. searching for, 4. referring to [...]

(Those commands work just as well in a plain Linux terminal, for the terminal users reading this. It's all shell scripts, basically.)

<jake`> someone should go bump the irc thread
<jake`> since 43950 people join when that happens
<jake`> and summer = more people looking at it
<Vindurinn> you do it
<jake`> HAHA LIKE I POST
<Vindurinn> you do
<jake`> the best solution would be to just paste this conversation as a post
<jake`> and I feel I am going to end up having to do it myself
<jake`> dammit
<Vindurinn> is there a problem?
<jake`> fine be that way

You guys should get in here!

irc.rizon.net
#RTK

<jake`> you know its summer again someone should go bump that irc channel thread on rtk
<pharaun> oh haha yeah
<pharaun> bring in some "fresh" blood
<jake`> I`ve done it the last 3 or so times
<jake`> its someone else's turn
<Christoph> new people only seem to stay for 5 seconds though
<Christoph> as if someone was scaring them
<jake`> yea what is with that

Not to divide people's attention, but there is also an #ajatt channel on the same server. I can't really be bothered being in two channels for pretty much the same thing.

<Flamerokz> oh hey
<Flamerokz> I just noticed that i'm not connected to #ajatt anymore
<Flamerokz> so I guess I did get banned
<Flamerokz> oh it says I was kicked
<Flamerokz> presumably banned too I guess
<pharaun> lol
<pharaun> what did you do
<Flamerokz> I guess they don't like spies or something
