- Synopsis:
- me <action description>
-
- Description:
- ME lets you perform an action on your current channel. It lets you
- describe what you're doing as though someone is watching you, rather
- than you telling them.
-
- Examples:
- To perform an action:
- /me doesn't want to go to work today
-
- Anyone on the channel you sent the action to will see something like
- this:
- * foobar doesn't want to go to work today
-
- Aliases:
- ME functions identically to using DESCRIBE to send an action to your
- current channel, as well as to CTCP ACTION.
-
- See Also:
- ctcp(1) action; load(5) action, mudlike; describe(1); on(5) action,
- send_action
-
- Restrictions:
- This command makes use of CTCP (client-to-client protocol), which is not
- part of the IRC protocol. Most modern IRC clients understand CTCP, but
- not all do, while others might not support the same CTCP commands that
- ircII-EPIC supports. If you receive an error of some sort, then the
- client on the receiving end is unable to properly handle your CTCP
- message.
