Should this really be under "BUGS"?
How about adding that this can be achieved by running "twistd -n ibid"?

This is in ibid.1. Should it really be referencing what I believe is itself?

Maybe mention that when automatically written to, the bot will preserve manual edits.
Weren't there some bugs associated with "reload config" not fully working? Perhaps mention them under a BUGS section.

I don't like how tha man page splits auth.permissions over multiple lines. Is there a way to force it to keep it on a single line?

I don't like that comma. Maybe a colon? There are also other places where this occurs.

This is in ibid-objgraph.1. I guess that ibid-objgraph(1) should have been ibid-memgraph(1)

Does it really *install* the bot? When I read install, I think it does more than what this script does. Maybe "configures"?

If you have a single machine-wide Ibid, yes it can. However that's more of a packaging question. At the moment, we aren't doing anything about that kind of thing.

Well, it is a bug that it misses those massages, yes. I could rephrase it to say that. r880

No, I think they were fixed.

Yes, one can tell it not to hyphenate specific words. File a bug for 0.2, if you want ot do that to all of them :)

86 | +This utility is for adding and removing sets of packaged factoids, known as |

88 | +.P |
89 | +The default mode is factpack loading. |

91 | +Should the pack contain any facts with the same name as an existing fact in the |
92 | +bot's database, loading will be aborted, unless the \fB-s\fR option is |
93 | +supplied. |
94 | +.P |
95 | +When invoked with the \fB-r\fR option, the named factpack (original import |
96 | +filename minus the extension) will be removed from the bot. |
97 | +If any of the facts contained in that pack were modified while loaded in the |
98 | +bot, unloading will be aborted, unless the \fB-f\fR option is supplied. |
99 | +.SH OPTIONS |

348 | +.SH NAME |

350 | +.SH SYNOPSIS |
351 | +.B ibid-plugin |
352 | +.RI [ options ...] |
353 | +.RI [ plugin\fR[\fB- ]| plugin\fB.\fIProcessor [\fB-\fR]...] |
354 | +.SH DESCRIPTION |
355 | +This utility is for testing Ibid plugins without the full bot |
356 | +environment. |
357 | +This means testing can be performed offline and without loading all the |
358 | +available plugins. |
359 | +.P |
360 | +This should be run in a configured Ibid bot directory. |
361 | +.P |
362 | +All the listed plugins and Processors will be loaded on start-up. |
363 | +Naming a plugin loads the complete plugin. |
364 | +Suffixing a \fB-\fR to the name, ignores that plugin or Processor |
365 | +instead of loading it. |
366 | +.SH OPTIONS |
367 | +.TP |
368 | +\fB\-c\fR, \fB\-\-configured\fR |
369 | +Load all configured plugins, instead of only the core and requested |
370 | +plugins. |
371 | +.TP |
372 | +\fB\-o\fR, \fB\-\-only\fR |
373 | +Don't load the Ibid core plugins, only the plugins requested. |
374 | +Note that without the \fBcore\fR plugin to pre- and post-process events, |
375 | +most other plugins won't function correctly. |
376 | +.TP |
377 | +\fB\-p\fR, \fB\-\-public\fR |
378 | +By default, \fBibid-plugin\fR emulates a private conversation with the |
379 | +bot. |
380 | +With this option, the conversation is considered to be public. |
381 | +.TP |

425 | +This program sets up everything that a new Ibid bot needs before it can |

434 | +This should be run in the directory which will become the new Ibid bot's |
435 | +base. |
436 | +.P |
437 | +Should there be an existing \fBibid.ini\fR in the current directory, it |

All seems good.
I would change the description to "multi-protocol, easily extensible bot written in python" and not use it so much in the actual manpages themselves (it becomes a $phrase that sounds silly).
Also, the knab import script should reference knab.
Otherwise, seems fine - we really just need to get this stuff in...
