When the nick is next used, I'll tell them you asked. !summon summon Invites a logged-on user onto IRC. If the user is not logged on you'll be told. Target users can change this (eg, to disable it) by reconfiguring the userv service `irc-summon'. See ~ian/.userv. !convert convert Converts the specified quantity into SI units. Units that are understood are any understood by units(1) and also kelvin celsius fahrenheit (convert to celsius or kelvin) !ops ops on channel ops (privately) Asks me to give you channel operator privilege. You must have identified yourself (see `help identification'). !oplist oplist [] show chop list oplist [] + ... add nicks to chop list oplist [] - ... remove nicks from chop list oplist [] = ... set chop list Configures the list of who may use the `ops' command. You must be on the oplist yourself to do this. If you op me on a channel I'll automatically add you to the oplist if you have identified yourself. !identify You must identify yourself to change your settings and to use channel management commands. In ircII on chiark, just say `/blight-id'. For other clients, see `help identpass'. Once you are identified you can then register new nicks, change settings, etc. - so long as you remain on a channel that I'm on too. (See also `help invite'.) !identpass identpass Identification, for example with /blight-id, is actually done with `identpass', which feeds the md5sum of the password to `userv irc-identpass '. That must exit 0 if all is well. !invite If you invite me to a channel I'll join it. !register register register your nick (or make it secure) register delete delete your nick registration register insecure register your nick insecurely I only store settings for registered nicks. For `insecure' nicks anyone who currently holds that nick can change its settings, including securing it to their username. `secure' nicks can only have their settings changed by the user to which they are registered, after identifying themselves (see `help identify'). !set set show your current settings set
