Within IRC, people should be able to use the “/me” command to issue emotes customized to their Nick. Such as:
Client Prompt for Nick “Caine”> /me is tired.
…should return this on the IRC server.
“Caine is tired.”
And in general, the IRC transport seems to not be funcational with any IRC-type commands. i.e., anything one transmits as prefixed with a slash (which normally is the queue to tell the IRC server that whatever comes next is a command for the server, such as /topic, /away, /whois, /kick, /ban, /motd, etc. ) gets escaped and printed exactly as typed. So if one types “/me is tired.” they see simply “/me is tired.”, etc.
Can this be fixed for at least /me? This is behaviour people tend to expect from IRC, but appears to be impossibleusing the IM Gateway.
