If you +reply "/etc/passwd", that would be considered a command. You type +"//etc/passwd" and the string "/etc/passwd" gets sent to the channel. + +Anything that starts with / that isn't listed here gets sent to the +IRC server as-is, minus the /. That's why /nick, /who, /whois aren't +listed here, for instance. + +/j <channel> +/join <channel> +Joins a channel, creates a new screen if possible. If a screen can't +be created, channel text will be sent to the [server] screen, and +"/m #channel" must be used, to send to the channel. + +/j1 <channel> +/join1 <channel> +Joins a channel without creating a new screen. Channel test will be +sent to the [server] screen. Use "/m #channel" to send to the channel. + +/m <nick|channel> <text> +/msg <nick|channel> <text> +PRIVMSG to nick or channel. + +/q <nick> [<msg>] +/query <nick> [<msg>] +Creates a screen for PMs to/from <nick> if possible. If <msg> is +given, sends it to the <nick>. <nick> can also be a channel, which +creates a channel screen for a channel that doesn't already have +its own screen. + +/quit [<msg>] +Quits IRC with optional quit message. + +/p [#chan] [<msg>] +/part [#chan] [<msg>] +Parts (leaves) a channel. If no #chan is given, the current screen's +channel is parted (if you're in a channel screen). If there's a screen +for the channel, it gets closed. + +/names [<channel>] +Shows the list of users in a channel. Uses the current screen's channel, +if no <channel> given. On most networks, it's not very useful to use +/names on a channel you haven't joined. + +/topic [<channel>] +Shows the channel topic and its creator. With no <channel>, uses the +current screen's channel. + +/ping [<nick>] +With no argument: ping the server. With arg: CTCP ping the nick. +The contents of RTCLOK are sent as the ping data, so when the +PONG response is received, the round-trip time can be shown, with +up to 1/60 (NTSC) or 1/50 (PAL) second accuracy. +TODO: not implemented yet. + +/me <action> +CTCP ACTION. Only works in a channel or query screen (eventually +it'll work in [server] and [private] too) + +/ver <nick> +CTCP VERSION. + +/info [<nick>] +With <nick>, CTCP CLIENTINFO. Without <nick>, INFO command for the +server. + +/ctcp <nick> <command> [<text>] +Send arbitrary CTCP commands. + +/list <arg(s)> +This command will be sent to the server as-is. The only reason it's a +local command is so the argument can be required: sending LIST without +any arguments lists every channel on the server, which isn't useful. + +/color <bg> [<fg>] [<status-active>] [<status-highlight>] +Set colors. This should be on a per-screen basis, eventually. +TODO: this only takes bg and fg arguments, currently. + +/chans +List all channels we've joined. This will actually be limited to +something like 20 (who joins more than 20 channels anyway?) +TODO: not implemented yet. + +/quote <cmd> +Send raw IRC protocol to the server. This bypasses local command +parsing. + +/alert <number> +Set the type of alert that happens when you're PMed or highlighted +in a channel. 0 = none, 1 = beep, 2 = flash, 3 = beep and flash. |
