bot5.py

#!/usr/bin/python3
# bot5.py
# the main executable to start Bot5.
# call python3 bot5.py to bring it online.
# accepts one optional argument: the path to the config folder. If none is provided, a sensible default is used.
# There should be nothing in here except the bare minimum. Everything else should be loaded through extensions.
# These extensions in turn should be loaded by the ExtensionManager.
