- Synopsis:
- on [<modes>]ctcp [<serial#>] [-|^]<match> { <action> }
-
- Description:
- This hook is triggered whenever the client receives a CTCP message,
- whether directly or one sent to a channel it is on.
-
- Parameters:
- $0 nickname of CTCP message sender
- $1 target of CTCP (client's nickname or channel name)
- $2 type of CTCP
- $3- arguments to CTCP command, if any
-
- Examples:
- To customize the normal CTCP message:
- on ^ctcp * "*" {
- if ( [$1] == C ) {
- echo *** $0 sent a CTCP $2 to $1${[$3] ? [: $3-] : []}
- } {
- echo *** $0 sent you a CTCP $2${[$3] ? [: $3-] : []}
- }
- }
-

- ctcp(1); on(5) ctcp_reply
-
- Restrictions:
- Automatic replies from within this hook are limited by the irc protocol.
- Since a CTCP is really just a PRIVMSG, the client may only automatically
- reply with NOTICEs, not MSGs. Any attempt to send a MSG or CTCP from
- within this hook will result in it automatically being converted to a
- NOTICE (or CTCP REPLY).
-
- Other Notes:
- The client's default behavior of automatically responding to certain CTCP
- messages cannot be suppressed with this hook. To prevent the client from
- replying to CTCPs, use IGNORE.
