!help
you'll be told. Target users can change this (eg, to disable it)
by reconfiguring the userv service `irc-summon'. See ~ian/.userv.
+!who
+who [<nick>]
+ Gives information about who I think the nick is (or who I think you
+ are), including whether the nick is registered, whether it is
+ associated with a username and if so who, and whether the current
+ user of the nick has identified themselves to me.
+
!convert
convert <number> <unit>
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)
+(Not yet implemented.)
+
+!op
+op on channel
+op <channel> (privately)
+ I'll give you channel operator privilege, if you're a manager.
+
+!channel
+channel [<chan>] [show] show settings
+channel [<chan>] manager +|-|= <nick> ... set manager list
+channel [<chan>] autojoin yes|no join at bot start ?
+ See `help <setting>' (eg, `help manager') for more info.
-!ops
-ops on channel
-ops <channel> (privately)
- Asks me to give you channel operator privilege. You must be using
- a secure nick and have identified yourself (see `help identify').
-
-!oplist
-oplist [<chan>] show chop list
-oplist [<chan>] + <nick> <nick> ... add nicks to chop list
-oplist [<chan>] - <nick> <nick> ... remove nicks from chop list
-oplist [<chan>] = <nick> <nick> ... 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.
+!autojoin
+channel [<chan>] autojoin yes|no (`yes' is default.)
+ Controls whether I'll join the channel when I'm (re)started.
+(Not yet implemented.)
+
+!manager
+channel [<chan>] manager + <nick> <nick> ... add managers
+channel [<chan>] manager - <nick> <nick> ... remove managers
+channel [<chan>] manager = <nick> <nick> ... set new manager list
+ Managers are those who can use the `channel' command to change
+ channel settings. Manager status is only effective for secure
+ nicks, after the manager has identified themselves.
+ If you op me on an unmanaged channel you become the only manager,
+ but you must use `channel' to change a channel setting to make this
+ permanent. To make a channel unmanaged, make it have no managers.
!identify
You must identify yourself to change your settings and to use channel
then register new nicks, change settings, etc. - so long as you
remain on a channel that I'm on too. (See also `help invite'.)
+!blight-id
+/blight-id is a command available in ircII (and possibly other
+clients) on chiark. It sets up a password if you don't already have
+one, and then uses it to identify you to Blight. If you want to
+change your password, delete the file ~/.userv/irc-pass-md5.
+
!identpass
identpass <username> <password>
- Identification, for example with /blight-id, is actually done with
- `identpass', which feeds the md5sum of the password to `userv
- <username> irc-identpass <nick>'. That must exit 0 if all is well.
+ Identifies you to Blight. To set up your password, or be reminded
+ of it, run the shell command `irc-blight-id' on chiark.
+ (On ircII on chiark `/blight-id' is easier, see `help blight-id'.)
+ See `help identpass-internals' for technical details.
+
+!identpass-internals
+Identification, for example with /blight-id, is actually done with
+`identpass', which feeds the md5sum of the password to `userv
+<username> irc-identpass <nick>'. That must exit 0 if all is well.
+By default this checks the md5sum against ~/.userv/irc-pass-md5.
!invite
If you invite me to a channel I'll join it.
