[alicebot-general] RebeccaAIML .981 released with new QT GUI in the samples section

[mehri]

Hey Noel,

Thanks for trying it out.  Soon or latter I'll bite
the bullet and move it over to using autoconf/automake
to be like other Linux packages and provide a RPM.

Also soon or latter I have to make it multilingual so
the aliens of Marklar can create apps in their native
Marklar language (Bee-bo-bopping) :-)

After working for a while on the AIML interpreter I
realized how very long it takes to make one and the
hard effort and time all the other AIML interpreter
writers put into creating one.  After 10 months of
development mine has only a fraction of the features
of some of the other interpreters.

I tip my hat to all the other AIML interpreter writers
and Dr. Wallace for opening his research to the OSS
community. Through the open source community you are
all changing and shaping the world of AI and welcoming
others to join in the fun.
