# $EPIC: me.txt,v 1.3 2006/08/19 01:19:53 sthalik Exp $ ======Synopsis:====== __me__ ======Description:====== __ME__ lets you perform an action on your current channel. It lets you describe what you're doing as though someone is watching you, rather than you telling them. ======Examples:====== To perform an action: /me doesn't want to go to work today Anyone on the channel you sent the action to will see something like this: * foobar doesn't want to go to work today ======Aliases:====== __ME__ functions identically to using [[DESCRIBE]] to send an action to your current channel, as well as to [[CTCP]] [[ctcp ACTION|ACTION]]. ======Restrictions:====== This command makes use of [[CTCP]] (client-to-client protocol), which is not part of the IRC protocol. Most modern IRC clients understand [[CTCP]], but not all do, while others might not support the same [[CTCP]] commands that ircII-EPIC supports. If you receive an error of some sort, then the client on the receiving end is unable to properly handle your [[CTCP]] message.
