hiya!

Continuing from last posting..



4. Have friends/not friends. This is all defined by the actions you perform for each 
nick. Read.. 
This (in a sense) makes you behave like a bot where if a non-friend msg's you several 
times in a channel he will be put on
ignore or kicked or even banned if you have channel operator (this all depends on how 
you have the config set up and different actions can be chosen for
different people. By default, everyone is `normal' which basically makes you behave 
exactly how you would in irc.
When a friend does an action you could do an ainfinate amount of things (as if they 
were type into they keyboard). here's an idea of the interface you might
like to use in the settings:
           

|    _U_sers     |   _E_vent      _A_ction
|              |
| SomeonesNick |   Join       /kick Bumhole | Whew!
| */_Blokesnick_/*   |   join       [wait 3] How are ya doin'?
| Alien        |   kick       Nice one Blokesnick
| Girlsnick    |   Ban        Hee hee :)
|              |   Kill       Ooo

Notice that there is a pipe (|) symbol between `/kick Bumhole' and `Wheew!'? This is 
another idea I thought of which could be used as a seperator where you
would like to use several actions on a single event (could be used in the `Actions' 
menu.) The event list is what the action responds to; some of these could be
pre-defined and users can add there own using the setup, by recognising certainlines 
so the `join' event could be a pre-defined event and the occurance is when
the msg `<nick> (user@host) has joined this channel' e.t.c. appears in the channel 
window. Another parameter could be wether it responds to raw msg's or msg's
from the client.

5. CTCP extensions.
Considering nearly every amiga user uses Amirc it won't hurt to update the `Client to 
Client Protocol' would it? For Amiga users it won't have to become a
standard. The following suggestions could be pretty useful for everyone.

First of all there's the standard user info, this could be listed in the settings as 
`Misc comments'.

Next ctcp command could be `mail'. Amirc would respond with whatever you have inserted 
in the `Your email address' string in the amirc setup.

Plus several others, see the example.

Here's an example:

_CTCP Commands_
                               ________________________

_

Some of these may sound a little extensive and personal, which is good because it then 
gives the user the decision as to wether they wish to give those
details away. You could perhaps even have certain aspects of your computer, such as a 
tick box for wether you have a CDRom and a cycle gaget which brings up a
choise of speed. Basically, all this is so others can quickly find out what your Amiga 
is, how they can contact you either via email or by phone. You could even
allow the user to add more ctcp commands and choose what they respond with. This could 
be handy as a way of identifying people; if you wish to see if someone is
who you think they are and that person has given you a special ctcp command to use on 
them and what to expect for a response, you could quite easily conclude
wether the person is for real.
