Posts: 3		I have trivia support enabled, downloaded the trivia file, etc...but I can't figure out how to get it working. I've read everything I could find about it, but to no avail. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

(anonymous)		after searching for answer like 4 hours, I have to surrender and ask for help. Can anyone tell me if there's some trick to do to get this trivia thingy working ? Someone mentioned there should be README.FEATURES file in the distribution package, but there isn't...

Posts: 3		Kinda glad I'm not the only one having trouble. the readme.features file doesn't exist, nor does mkindex in 3.0.1.

Posts: 54		1) copy the questions file into the bots dir (i.e. as 'questions'). 2) you need do build the 'mkindex' utility (trivia/mkindex.c): $ gcc -O2 trivia/mkindex.c -o mkindex This will create the mkindex binary in the bots dir. 3) Build the index over the question file (the generated file is named '<file>.index', i.e. questions.index): $ ./mkindex questions 49124 entries indexed 4) Start the bot and tell the location of the question file: SET QFILE ./questions 5) TRIVIA START Trivia starting! Get ready... In which county does the River Mersey rise There you go.

(anonymous)		after doing all the above..... just type .set qfile questions leave off the ./ of ./questions, it'll figure out which dir to look in
