Usage: ON [#|+|-|^|&|@]CTCP [-|^]<parameters> [action]
This event is activated whenever someone sends a client-to-client
protocol (CTCP) request. Certain CTCP types are have predefined
actions that you can't override with the ^, but you can use the
to create your own CTCP protocols. The parameters are:
$0 nick of person who send CTCP
$1 who the ctcp was to (either your nick or a channel)
$2 The CTCP command word
$3- Any additional arguments
For example, if you want to set up a new ctcp function called
CHEESE, you would do:
ON -CTCP "* * CHEESE" CTCP $0 $2 Say Cheese!
Using the /CTCP in an ON CTCP automatically sends the proper
reply format. If someone no send you a:
CTCP <yournick> CHEESE
you will see:
*** CTCP CHEESE from <theirnick>:
and they will see:
*** CTCP REPLY CHEESE from <yournick>: Say Cheese!
