- Usage: IGNORE [<nick>] [-|+|^][<message type>]
- IGNORE [<user@host>] [-][<message type>]
-
- The standard form of IGNORE allows you to specify which type of
- messages you wish to ignore from a user. The message type
- parameter can be one of the following:
- MSGS All MSGs received
- NOTICES All NOTICEs received
- PUBLIC All normal channel conversation
- INVITES All INVITEs received
- WALLOPS All WALLOPS received
- NOTES All NOTEs received
- CTCP All CTCPs received
- CRAP Anything else
- ALL All of the above message types
- NONE No message types
-
- You can ignore by nickname or by specifying a userid@hostname
- format. Wildcards may be used in all formats. You can specify
- multiple types of messages to ignore on the command line.
- Preceeding a type with a - indicates removal of ignoring of
- that type of message. For example:
- IGNORE BigCheese MSGS INVITES
- ignores MSGs and INVITES from BigCheese.
- IGNORE *@*.cmu.edu ALL -NOTES
- ignores all types of messages except NOTES from anyone from CMU.
-
- You may also specify a + before any message type to cause messages
- of that type from that user to be displayed with the nickname
- highlighted. (See SET HIGHLIGHT_CHAR) For example:
- IGNORE *Cheese* +MSGS
- will cause all MSGs from anyone with Cheese in their nickname
- to appear with their nickname highlighted.
- IGNORE * +PUBLIC +NOTES
- will highlight all PUBLIC messages and NOTES received. The + has no
- effect with the user@host name format.
-
- If you specify a ^ before a message type, then messages from the
- matching nicknames will be displayed no matter what. This allows
- you to exclude certain nicknames from larger matching lists. For
- example:
- IGNORE * MSG
- IGNORE BigCheese ^MSG
- This will ignore private messages from everyone except BigCheese.
-
- All forms of IGNORE use the - to remove ignore attributes,
- and the type NONE will remove the user from the list
- completely.
-
- All forms of IGNORE will match against the nickname with the
- most true matching characters. What this means is if you have:
- IGNORE BigCheese MSGS
- IGNORE * +ALL
- Then MSG's from BigCheese will be ignored, and all other types
- of messages from BigCheese will be unaffected. All messages
- of all types from any other user will be highlighted.
