Synopsis:
   who [<option> ...] [<target|pattern>]

Description:
   The WHO command queries detailed information about a target or
   wildcard pattern.  For each user it will return a single line containing
   their nickname, userhost address, realname (IRCNAME), their current
   channel (if it is public), whether they are a chanop or chanvoice there,
   whether they are here or gone, and whether they are an irc operator.

   The WHO command uses the same rules as NAMES and LIST to
   determine which users will be returned.  Invisible users will never be
   returned, and users on secret or private channels are never returned.
   Notwithstanding this, if you are on the same channel as someone else,
   they will be returned.

   EPIC can do client-side filtering, to reduce the number of users shown.

   Undernet and Dalnet each have (incompatable) server-side filtering.

Options:
   Options may be abbreviated, so long as they are not ambiguous.
   If you specify any unrecognized options, the entire request is aborted.

   - Universal server-side filtering options:
	-operators		Show only irc operators
     Only one of the following options may be used in each request:
	-host <hostname>      	Show only users from this host
	-server <servername>	Show only users on this server
	-name <username>	Show only users with this username
	-realname <username>	Show only users with this IRCNAME
	-nick <nickname>      	Show only users with this nickname

   - Undernet-specific server-side filtering options:
	-u-i			Show invisible users (restricted to opers)
	-ux			Send an "Undernet Extended" who request
				(Cannot be used with any other options)

   - Dalnet-specific server-side filtering options:
	-dx			Send a "Dalnet Extended" who request
				(Cannot be used with any other options)

   - Client-side filtering options:
	-lusers               	Show only non-operators
	-chops                	Show only channel operators
	-nochops		Show only non-channel operators
	-here			Show only non-away users
	-away			Show only away users

    - Reply processing:
	-line {...}		Execute the code for each line and DO NOT
				hook /on WHO.
		The parameters to -line are exactly the same as the
		paramters to ON WHO.

	-end {...}		Execute the code for the last line and DO 
				NOT hook /on 315.
		The parameters to -end are as follows:
			$0   name of server queried
			$1   body of the query

   - Debugging:
	-literal		Send a query exactly as specified to the 
				server with no client processing of the
				request.  (Cannot be used with other options)
	-flush			Flush the WHO queue (dangerous!)
	-diagnose		Display the WHO queue


Examples:
   To list all irc operators on servers from foo.com:
      /who -o -s *.foo.com

   To list the channel operators on channel #blah, which you are on:
      /who -c #blah

   To list all users from Russia, saving it to a file:
      /who -h *.ru -f ru.users

   To list all non-opers and say something at the end:
      /who -lusers -end { echo sheesh. that's alot of lusers! }
