- Usage: WHO [-switch [<arg>]] [<wildcard expression>]
- Gives a listing of the users on irc. If no flags are
- specified, the wildcard expression you supply will
- match any field returned by WHO. However, if the wildcard
- expression is "*" (an asterisk), the users on the current
- channel are shown. Note that WHO * will fail if you
- are not on a channel. If the expression is 0, all users on
- irc are shown. The following switches are also recognized
- and used to limit the listing:
- -OPERATORS - lists only operators
- -LUSERS - lists only non operators
- -CHOPS - lists only channel operators
- -NAME <username> - lists only people with matching
- user-ids
- -FILE <filename> - lists only people listed in the
- file
- -HOST - Lists users from the specified host.
- -SERVER - Lists users from the specified server.
- -HERE - Lists only those marked as here.
- -AWAY - Lists only those marked away.
- -NICK - Match only the given nickname
-
- The switches may be abbreviated unambiguously. All matching of
- usernames, hostnames, and servernames may contain wildcards (*).
- Wildcards in the form "*.edu" are also correctly recognized
- by the IRC server (so there's no need for ircII to do that).
