- Synopsis:
- load nicks
-
- Description:
- This script allows the user to assign aliases to other users' nicknames,
- such that one only needs to type a short name when sending a MSG or
- initiating a QUERY. All one needs to do is ASSIGN the person's real
- nickname to a variable with a shorter name, than messages may be sent
- to the variable name.
-
- Examples:
- To alias SomeBigNicknameOnDALnet's nick to something easier to handle:
- /assign sbn SomeBigNicknameOnDALnet
- /msg sbn hi there!
-
- See Also:
- assign(5); load(5); msg(1); query(1)
-
- Bugs:
- The nature of this script is such that it will expand any variable name,
- not just those that were intended to be nickname aliases. Care should
- be taken to avoid misdirecting messages.
-
- Other Notes:
- This script was written by Mike Sandrof (BigCheese).
