Using boxefaq

the boxee fact bot, boxefaq, is here to help serve the channel. It can remember answers to commonly ask questions and facts about anything. Anyone in the channel can use boxefaq to recall a fact and display it in the channel. all user commands start with the ! character and will be displayed in the channel.

to have boxefaq recall a fact and display it use the following command.

   !<alias>
   example: !linux

if you would rather have boxefaq tell a specific user a fact privately, use the following command

   !<alias> > <nick>
   example: !linux > agentlame

Suggestions & Corrections

you can also suggest new facts using the 'is' parameter

   !<alias> is <fact>
   example: !boxee is fun for the whole family

if you think boxefaq is wrong about something, let us know!

   !no <alias> is <fact>
   example: !no boxee is perfect for your HTPC

when suggesting and correcting facts, boxefaq will store all information for the admins to review and make any necessary corrections. we encourage all users to give us new input and corrections to help increase boxefaq's knowledge base.

Searching Facts

it easy to search boxefaq's knowledge base using the !search command. this is a full text search, your search string will be matched against all text in the database and return aliases as the result. when searching, *<your_search_string>* is assumed.

   !search <string>
   example: !search linux

you can also direct output to a specific user, just like when recalling a fact. search the knowledge base and direct results

   !search <string> > <nick>
   example: !search linux > agentlame
