Usage: CTCP <nick> <command> [<args>]
CTCP allows you access to the client-to-client protocol used
to perform certain client specific actions between different
clients on the network. The CTCP mechanism works by sending
a specially coded message to another user whose client is
supposed to reply with a reply message of the type, or with
an error message, unless you sent it to a channel.

For example, if you do:
CTCP BigCheese VERSION
you will receive:
*** CTCP REPLY VERSION from BigCheese: ircII 2.2.2 *IX.

The <command> field may be of several types, new ones are
introduced all the time, but there is a mechanism for you to
find out what you can use: see CLIENTINFO.
If the nickname is "*" the output is sent to the current channel.
