That's all I have. You can ask the company that makes the chat software if there are additional files and resources. Their contact page is at http://www.digichat.com/support.html
Looks like the API doc for the Java component. You'd probably have to get the Java package too and reference it as part of your own Java-based interface. Might be possible to COM wrap it so you could hook it up to software written in other languages (don't personally use Java - never liked it).
Check here http://www.digichat.com/PI_BotAPI.html - their BOT API may not be what you're expecting though.
The low impact route might be to just send keystrokes to the existing Java applet window using the Windows API thus simulating typing the messages. Then you wouldn't have to "interface" to anything.
Good luck.

It says the server rejected the login due to name or password incorrect.
i used
account_name password host site_id
equal to
lochenkinov PASSWD www.elitetrader.com 1000
using my password of course.
It also says in the docs that the account must be given bot permission.
This is from digichat 4.0. if you wish to give me the BotAPI.jar from your bots directory, I can try with that, too.
thank you
