If you have Debian Linux installed, you probably have MegaHAL already.
Try typing "megahal" into a shell window. If it turns out you don't have
it installed, you may use dselect to download and install the
package. If you don't know what this means, ask your system administraror,
or a local Linux guru.
MegaHAL IRC Bot
Want a MegaHAL which can subscribe to an IRC channel and masquerade
as a human being? Well, Marcelo Ricardo Leiner (cyborg_@geocities.com)
has made some modifications to the source code which allow you to do just
this. The archive includes a Linux executable as well as the source;
please feel free to test it under different operating systems and report
on it's compatibility.
MegaHAL does IRC (Linux version, with source, thanks to Marcelo Ricardo
Leiner).
MegaHAL Personalities
Timm Suess went to the
trouble of translating the original MegaHAL files to German, and he also created
six MegaHAL personalities based on movie scripts. To use these new
MegaHAL personalities, download and unzip the files, and run MegaHAL
from the directory named after the personality you'd like to use!
Feel free to submit your own!
Click on the archive for your machine from the list below to download
the entire MegaHAL distribution. For some
machines, you can only download older versions of MegaHAL. These
are specified with remarks in the list below... if you plan on using
any machines thus marked, and you have knowledge of compiling C programs,
I'd appreciate it if you downloaded the source (at the bottom of the page)
and compile the latest version. Thanks!

MegaHAL porting and bug-fixing
If you would like to join our effort to make the MegaHAL code entirely
bug free, and compilable on just about every machine imaginable, then
perhaps you would like to download the latest version of the source code.
Thanks!
The complete MegaHAL distribution, sans executable. When you create
a new MegaHAL distribution, simply add the executable to this directory and
archive it using the most popular archiver on your machine.
