+ | ======Description:====== | ||
+ | This command asks the server for information about the ircd program. | ||
+ | You will see a list of contributers to ircd, and ircII, and EPIC. | ||
+ | |||
+ | You can query a remote server, but that doesn't serve much purpose since | ||
+ | networks usually run the same software network-wide. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Some servers restrict or limit your ability to query remote servers. | ||
+ | You may get an error message, or you may get nothing at all in response. | ||
+ | You should never programmatically wait on a remote server reply. | ||
