Title: REQ: This Day In Blues
Post by: gOOfus on 28 October, 2004, 17:33:44

Would it be possible for someone to make a script that reads from a text file events that happened on that day?
Maybe an altered birthday bot.. And displays the events in main chat maybe two or three times a day. I have the events (this day in Blues) I just need a way to display them automaticaly. TIA

Here are what the entries look like in the text file;

04 - 29 On this day in 1927, "The Last Scene Of The Titanic" was recorded by Frank Hutchison in St. Louis (Okeh 45121).

04 - 30 On this day in 1941, Charlie "Bird" Parker's first commercially recorded work was cut at Decca Records.

04- 29 being April 29th. Of course I can change the dates any way that makes the script easier to make.

perhaps Herodes's BirthdayBot could be modded to do something like that

Yes, that was my thought. But I'm not knowledgable enough to pull that off. I'm hoping somebody else can.. Any takers?
