IRC Query Command

Posted by hardwarehank, Mon Jul 10 16:24:57 UTC 2006

So, if you want to chat with another user explicitly without having to /msg all the time, just use /query.


[04:19pm|bish0p< you can do /query <user>
[04:20pm|bish0p< and it puts you in a direct chat chat mode with that user
 Starting conversation with bish0p
[04:20pm|bish0p< until you do a /query 
[04:20pm|bish0p< then it leaves direct converstation mode
[04:20pm|bish0p> awesome
[04:20pm|bish0p> thats what i was looking for thank
[04:20pm|bish0p> i forgot what it was called
 Ending conversation with bish0p

Oh how amazing. Now Kelsey might not have to use a seperate channel to chat with me.

I knew about private messaging, so it didn't take me any time to 'discovery' it. But, I didn't know about /query. Maybe you should 'discovery' grammar.
