/join
#roomname |
Enter
an existing room, or create a new room if this room name doesn't
exist. |
/admin
server name |
Retrieves
administrative information about the IRC server to which you are
connected. Often provides an email address for the server
administrator and indicates which server administrators are online for
that server. If the server name is omitted, then this command will
provide information about the server to which you are connected. |
/away
message |
The
system will automatically send this message to anyone trying to
message you. It is often used to tell people that you are away from
your computer. If you no longer wish to be seen as "away",
then simply type '/away no message' in the text area and the
away message will no longer be displayed. |
/chanserv |
Using
ChanServ allows the channel to be controlled without the need of an
IRC bot and makes channel takeovers virtually impossible. |
/cs |
Usage:
/cs command|channel parameters
This is an alias, which calls to ChanServ to reduce your amount of
typing. Instead of always typing /msg chanserv <command|channel>
[parameters], you simply type /cs <command|channel>
[parameters].
Example: /cs set #ICQHelp mlock +tn
A user can send this command to get help on topics. The message is
sent to all IRC ops that are set with the +h mode (looks very
helpful). However, if the command HELPSERV is done without any
parameters or message it will simply list the IrCQ-Net commands.
Example: /helpops How do I
/helpServ Kline
/helpops How do I
|
i
/info |
Displays
information about the server that you are connected to including up
time, address and version. |
/invite
nickname channelname |
Used
to invite people to join a channel. The server will send a message to
the user that you have designated, telling him of the invitation. This
is the only way to join a channel that is set mode +i.
Example: /invite residue #support. |
/links |
This
command will show all the servers currently linked together on the
network. |
/list |
Updates
the room list |
/motd
servername |
Display
the current Message of the day for the server that you designate. If
you leave the server field blank it will return with the current
server you are logged onto. |
/nick
newname |
Change
your nickname |
/nickserve |
NickServ
allows users to register their nicknames for use while online. Users
may reserve their favorite online name for their personal use with
options to ensure that nobody else can use it. |
/notice
nickname OR channelname message |
Sends
a message into a channel or to a specific user. Usually reserved for
important messages.
Example:
/notice #ICQChatMaster Check out our new web page
/notice Phil What version of mIRC do you use?
|
/ns |
Usage:
/ns command
ns is a built in alias that calls upon NickServ. It reduces your
amount of typing.
Example: /ns register mypass JohnDoe@somehost.com /ns help |
/part
channelname message |
The
part command will disconnect you from the specified channel. The
example below would make you leave the channel #ICQChatMaster.
Example: /part #ICQChatMaster See you later |
/pass
mypass |
The
pass command has the same functionality as the identify command used
with NickServ |
/msg
nickname OR channelname message |
This
functionally works exactly the same as the /msg command. |
/msg |
Use
this command to send a private message to another user on IRC chat. |
/me |
is a
pink bunny. Your nickname will be visible before your message to other
users on IRC. |
/part
#coolness |
You
leave the chat room and return to the IRC menu |
/quit |
Leave
the chat and disconnect from the server. |
/topic
new topic |
Changes
the topic (if allowed) |
User
Modes |
Usage:
/mode nickname +/- ModeLetter
i Invisible: Makes a user invisible, you will not be able to
see what channels this user has joined unless you are in a channel
with that user.
s Server messages: Allows you to see messages that the server
sends.
w Wallops: Messages set by IRC ops to users will be visible.
Example:
/mode Dan +isw (will be invisible, see server msgs & wallops)
/mode Dan -s (will no longer see server messages) |
/who
channelname OR nickname |
Can
be used on both channels and nicknames. When this command is activated
on a channel it will display the users and their status in that
channel. When used on a user it will show all the channels the user is
in, along with other information only if one of the two following
conditions is met: you are in channel with 'nickname' or 'nickname' is
not invisible (+i). |
/whois
nick |
Shows
you information about this nickname |
/whowas
nickname |
For
a certain amount of time after a client has left the server you can
still get information about that client. The information is the same
as the information in the "whois" command. |
