CLASSES
    RBhandler
    
    class RBhandler
     |  interface with FIBStn15
     |  
     |  Methods defined here:
     |  
     |  __initDict__(self)
     |      initialize the user dictionary
     |          this might block on input if rawwho doesn't return an _endwho
     |          or if 'set sortwho' fails
     |      ## self.uDict={[str:name: [str:nAME, str:ratings, str:experience]]}
     |  
     |  __init__(self, uID, uPword, uClient, printer, master)
     |      connect to FIBS and initialize the user dictionary
     |      printer options for diagnostics are:
     |          'console', ''
     |  
     |  command(self, command)
     |      send command to FIBS
     |  
     |  getRequest(self)
     |      return ['name', 'word'(, ...)] tell from FIBS | False
     |      guaranteed len()>=2
     |  
     |  getShout(self)
     |      return ['name', 'word'(, ...)] shout from FIBS | False
     |      guaranteed len()>=2
     |  
     |  logout(self)
     |      send an exit command to FIBS
     |  
     |  output(self, line)
     |      diagnostic output can go to:
     |      'console' stdout
     |      fileTag   file with CR
     |      ''        nowhere
     |  
     |  processLine(self, ts)
     |      methods that do not use lines from FIBS fall through to this
     |  
     |  query(self, name1, name2)
     |      return int:time in seconds of match between players
     |      TimeBot will return 99999 for anything else!
     |      else return "no TimeBot"
     |                  "lag" if FIBS is not responding
     |  
     |  tell(self, user, message)
     |      tell user message
     |      return "done told" whether user's logged in or not!
     |             "lag" if FIBS is not responding
     |  
     |  whoami(self)
     |      return str:printer(setting) requestQ[size] and uDict[size]
     |  
     |  whois(self, name)
     |      return ['nAME', 'ratings', 'experience']
     |      else ['name', "No information found on user"]
