Sorry for asking yet another question but this is pretty much the same as before as the additions aren't working.

I have an Perl IRC but using Net::IRC. It runs via the command line and it hits an infinite loop when it reaches $irc->start;. I know this from the docs but the thing I need to do is get the script to prompt for commands continuously while it's LIVE. I tried using a do_once_loop but with no documentation examples on it, I have no idea what to do. And by using this loop, my bot never logged back in. So can someone show me the proper way to have the script loop and ask for commands through the command-line while the bot is live?

The second one is being able to read user-actions when they type /me does something. No documentation examples on this either so can someone show a snippet on how I would detect a user-action AND have the bot be able do do actions itself? prvmsg does NOT work with commands, it prints as text.

I've been on this for days now and I can't for the life of me get any sample code of what I need. I would appreciate ANYTHING you have to offer.
