Really at this point (in reference to how ii works), I just need ways to manipulate log files.

There's an in and out file for each server / channel / person, separated by folders for each. So what I need to do is take the file

~/irc/servername/channelname/out

and monitor for the trigger word(s).

I then need to take that entire line of text and hopefully put it in a variable.

I then need to have the following sent to ~/irc/servername/in

/privmsg my_nickname [stored string of data from above]

Does that kind of clear things up a little, as far as how ii works and what I'm attempting to do?

My ultimate goal is to be able to start the file/bash script and be able to close out of the ssh session to the pogoplug while keeping this running so I can leave it idling as a bot in the room.
