Synopsis:
set realname [<text>]
Description:
If set, the client will use the value of this variable as its IRCNAME
when connecting to new servers. The variable may be set to anything
desired, including nothing. If unset, the client will use the value
in the environment variable IRCNAME, or failing that, the value in
the user's GCOS field in the system password file.
Aliases:
Setting this variable is essentially equivalent to using the REALNAME
command.
See Also:
Environment(7); realname(4); reconnect(1); server(1)
Other Notes:
The nature of irc servers is such that this information cannot be
changed on the fly. The client must establish a connection with a new
server (or reconnect to the current one) for the setting to take
effect.
