gNiall attempts to learn whatever language you try to teach it. It is basically a disassociator: it collects statistics on sentences you type and tries to construct meaningful replies. The original Niall, by a guy called Matthew Peck, was an Amiga program which I liked, so I rewrote it for the GNOME desktop environment.
