- Synopsis:
- dcc chat <nick>
-
- Description:
- DCC CHAT initiates a direct connection to another client, allowing
- the users to chat without needing to pass messages through the irc
- network. This is a very secure way of communicating on irc, not
- to mention that it is generally faster than sending messages across
- the irc network.
-
- To send a message across the DCC CHAT connection, use MSG as you
- normally would, but prefix the nickname with a "=". Additionally,
- CTCP commands can be sent across a DCC CHAT connection (allowing you
- to initiate a DCC SEND, for instance), if the remote client is also an
- EPIC3 (or compatible) client. See the appropriate help files for more
- information.
