the script searches a list of subreddits for posts containing "I'm" and then replies to them saying hi
The script can be installed usign the install.sh script a file called praw.ini should also be created with the contents
[bot1]
client_id=
client_secret=
password=
username=
user_agent=
where these fields should be filled with your reddit accounts information to get the client_id and client_secret go to reddit.com/prefs/apps/ and create a new script app, user_agent can be anything as an example, your praw.ini file could look like
[bot1]
