Sending using Net::IRC

[deadpickle]

I am wondering is there a way to SEND PRIVMSG's to the channel
(therefore making them public) using the module Net::IRC? This modeule
does everything I need EXCEPT this, so if someone knows how to do this
I would be forever greatful.

I don't know N::I, but I recently stumbled upon the following thread:

http://perlmonks.org/?node_id=671791

The discussion *seems* to boil down to: N::I is somewhat buggy.
Modules that one can use instead are POE::Component::IRC,
Bot::BasicBot or Parse::IRC (while manually handling the connection)
which is by appearent general consensus claimed to be the best IRC
parsing module.
