+How to install pbot?
+
+This is how I (Xylon) do it.
+
+As root on server:
+    useradd -rm pbot
+    su - pbot
+    mkdir .ssh
+    echo 'my_private_key' > authorized_keys  # Now I can administrate him
+Open Thunar on my own computer and view pbot folder
+Open another thunar and log it into server to view /home/pbot
+    (CTRL+l and type ssh://pbot@80.87.131.232/home/pbot)
+Copy over all necessary files.
+    announcements/
+    info/
+    lib/
+    logs/
+    modules/
+    systemd/
+    transport/
+    bot_settings.sh
+    common_codez
+    envbot
+    hack_of_all_hacks
+    pbot
+    pbot-ng_fixer
+Restore backup of info/ and announcements/ directories if available (Xylon
+    keeps such backups).
+    Copy pbot-ng_daily_backup.tar.gz onto server
+    rm -r info announcements
+    tar -xf pbot-ng_daily_backup.tar.gz
+Now as root on the server:
+    mv /home/pbot/systemd/pbot.service /usr/lib/systemd/system/
+    cd /etc/systemd/system/multi-user.target.wants
+    ln -s /usr/lib/systemd/system/pbot.service
+    rm -r /home/pbot/systemd
+Final things to do:
+    Make sure /home/pbot/pbot has execute permissions
+    Make sure pbot's deps are installed
+        moreutils
+        w3m
+        recode
+    Put pbot's freenode password in /home/pbot/password.secret and chmod 600
+        (Xylon knows what this password is)
+Test if he works:
+    su - pbot
+    ./pbot start  # see if there is any error.
+    logout
+    pkill -u pbot  # He starts a lot of child processes so they must all
+                   # be killed before starting again.
+Start him properly
+    systemctl start pbot  # He should log into the IRC in a few seconds.
+More things to do
+    Make a cron job to make his backups
+        su - pbot
+        EDITOR=emacs crontab -e
+        Add "@daily tar -czf pbot-ng_daily_backup.tar.gz info announcements"
+        These backups should be downloaded somewhere daily by scp.
+    See if it's possible to send un-provoked messages
+        su - pbot
+        echo "Don't worry everyone. The most important service is back online." >> /tmp/un-provoked-message-store
