EQMBox_CCC - The EverQuest Multi-Box Command and Control Client

[cubber]

This is a python program that I whipped up to control a Boxed client running on a Linux host under wine in windowed mode through the standard EverQuest group and tell chat system. The program requires the 'xdotool' utility installed on the system running the Boxed client. 'xdotool' is available on most Linux distros in their package manager. You also need to enable logging in your eqclient.ini file. The program basically parses the character log for specific 'keywords' in group chat or tells in order to trigger the actions.

This is still very much a work in progress, but I felt it is complete enough to release to the community. After reviewing the code you can see how easy it is to extend it with a bit of python knowledge. I created a GITHUB repo for the code here:

If you would like to contribute to the project please let me know and after a bit of vetting I will add you to the list of collaborators.

There are plenty of comments throughout the code in order to get you up and running, as well as figure out how to extend it.

Enjoy!
