Alot of ircd's these days have +a (!) support, and irssi is one of the few clients out there lacking support. The main problem with the lack of support is these superops look to be normal, modeless users. This patch and ebuild fix this by adding the neccisary support for this. I wrote it last night/today, and was my first adventure in using my mediocure C skills to use for a public project. I hope this makes it into ~x86, and others can benifit from it. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce:
Created attachment 28490 [details] irssi ebuild for admin patch For some reason, my previous post did not wrap, I am sorry, it looks horrible =/
Created attachment 28491 [details, diff] the admin support patch What do you know, it did wrap. Ignore my previous comment about my previous previous comment ;)
No comments? I'd love positive or negitive. Or even a simple "we don't want to use this" =P
Sounds like a cool feature, did you send it to the irssi authors as well?
http://op-co.de/irssi/irssi-2003-11-26-euirc.diff patch to add support for +a und +q for some old cvs version of irssi. IRC RFC only specifies +o and +v. IMO the correct way is to parse the PREFIX information from the server. like PREFIX=(qaohv)*!@%+ for the euIRCnet.
Could you give irssi-0.8.10_rc5-r1 or irssi-svn a try? IIRC owner/admin or PREFIX support in general should be available with these versions.
Waiting for reply.
sorry i simply forgot about this bug, big thanks for reminding me. Indeed 0.8.10rc5 seems to support all modes correctly, to a patch is not neccessary any more. You can safely close this bug.
