- Synopsis:
- set auto_whowas [on|off|toggle]
-
- Description:
- When turned on, this setting will cause the client to automatically
- issue a WHOWAS for any WHOIS query that returns an error (generally
- meaning the queried nickname is not on irc). The client will limit
- the number of WHOWAS replies displayed to the number specified by
- the NUM_OF_WHOWAS variable.
-
- If this variable is turned off, the client will not automatically
- send a WHOWAS after any failed WHOIS query.
