AIMLpad, created by Gary Dubuque, is an AIML interpreter. It was mainly designed to be used as a "personal assistant" chatter-bot. AIMLpad uses a text interface for communicating with the user. It also takes advantage of a Graphic User Interface to allow you to program and maintain the chatterbot's so-called "intelligence". With suitable AIML (and the included scripting language designed by Gary Dubuque) it can be programmed to say and do many things.

CyN, created by Kino Coursey, is a modified version of AIMLpad. It extends AIMLpad by offering a micro Web and IRC server, and can interface to an OpenCyc server on a local or external computer.

You may well ask what Program-N is? Well, Program-N is simply a designation by Dr. Richard Wallace signifying that AIMLpad is an AIML compliant interpreter. Extensions are allowed for an AIML interpreter, but the interpreter must be able to parse AIML code as defined by an AIML standard (currently at v1.01).

FEATURES:

· A command interpreter for experimenting with the built-in scripting language.
· An Expert System (experimental).
· A Javascript Interpreter (SpiderMonkey) for use with the AIML programming language.
· Optional use of Microsoft's Agent (avatar).
