Description Vince Castellano 2004-03-31 21:58:32 UTC

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

For some reason, my previous post did not wrap, I am sorry, it looks horrible

What do you know, it did wrap. Ignore my previous comment about my previous
previous comment ;)

Comment 3 Vince Castellano 2004-04-02 21:46:07 UTC

No comments? I'd love positive or negitive. Or even a simple "we don't want to use this" =P

Comment 4 Jonathan S. Romero 2004-05-10 13:43:00 UTC

Sounds like a cool feature, did you send it to the irssi authors as well?

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.

Comment 8 Thomas Weidner 2005-07-25 01:44:41 UTC

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.
