# DefineBot
* This is a bot that defines a word that the user inputs. Whenever the user
inputs a message starting with '@define', the bot defines the word
that follows.
* The definitions are brought to the website using an API. The bot posts the
definition of the word to the stream from which the user inputs the message.
If the user inputs a word that does not exist or a word that is incorrect or
is not in the dictionary, the definition is not displayed.
* For example, if the user says "@define crash", all the meanings of crash
appear, each in a separate line.

* If the user enters a wrong word, like "@define cresh" or "@define crish",
then an error message saying no definition is available is displayed.
