Eliza implementation in Ada

Eliza implementation in Ada

[Jano]

Hello people,

In another spin of my Ada whereabouts, I'm now interested in finding an 
Ada open source implementation of the classic Eliza chatterbot (or 
improved versions). I'm looking through bot code resources but I find 
surprisingly few things (or I'm searching really bad). I have located a 
few in Pascal, Basic and Prolog, but that's all.

The next best thing would be a C implementation which I suppose would be 
easy to bind, and finally an implementation in any language that an 
average programmer could understand (in that case, simplicity would be a 
plus, I'd not like to translate a program with a lot of [obscure] 
lines).

Thanks for any pointers,

The BUSH shell scripting language (GPL license) contains an Eliza script 
in the examples directory.  Since BUSH is based on AdaScript (a subset 
of Ada 95) you should find it fairly ease to port to Ada 95.  Here's a 
link to the BUSH home page:

Thanks, I'll look it right now.

Err... both links (bin and source) for the latest version (0.9.3) are 
giving me a 404. I've download OK 0.9.2 though.

0.9.2 is the current stable version.  0.9.3 is the current development 
version and probably in not populated yet.
