Synopsis:
   dcc get [=]<nick> [<file>]

Description:
   DCC GET opens a file transfer connection and downloads a file
   that someone else has offered you with the DCC SEND command.

   If the file offer was recieved over a DCC CHAT connection that you have
   open with the person, then you must use their DCC CHAT nickname (eg,
   with a = before their nickname) as the nickname.

   If you do not specify the filename to get, the first (oldest) pending
   offer to you from that nickname will be opened.  If you wish to open
   all offers to you from that person, you can use the star ('*') argument.
   Note that this is not a wildcard; you cannot specify a wildcard pattern
   as the filename argument.  It must either be the name of a file, the 
   star character, or nothing at all.

   You must be able to establish an outbound internet connection from your
   host and the other person must be able to accept an inbound internet 
   connection to their host.  If either of these requirements are not met,
   (ie, there is a firewall in the way) the connection will fail.  This is
   not a bug in EPIC or the DCC specification; this is just how the internet
   works.

Examples:
   To accept a SEND from bob:
      /dcc get bob

   To accept all files offered to you by DCCbot:
      /dcc get DCCbot *
