# Bare bones script for starting BX-bot on Linux/OSX systems.
#
# Could be made better, but will do for now...
#
# You need a Java 21 JDK/JRE installed.
#
# This script expects all the jar files to live in the lib_dir.
#
# You can change the bxbot_jar var to the version you want to run; it has been defaulted to the current release.
#
# You can start, stop, and query the bot's status: ./bxbot.sh [start|stop|status]
