+ | ======Description:====== | ||
+ | This script will automatically complete a partially matching nickname | ||
+ | when you type it in a channel. The usual custom on irc is to type some | ||
+ | person's nickname, followed by a colon, followed by a space, followed | ||
+ | by your message. If you use this style, then this script will allow you | ||
+ | to specify the non-ambiguous part of a person's nickname and automatically | ||
+ | change it for you before sending it off to irc. | ||
+ | |||
+ | If you /set nickcomp ON (the default), then the nickname completion action | ||
+ | is automatically done each time you type to the channel. If OFF, then no | ||
+ | auto-completion will be done. | ||
+ | |||
+ | If you /set nickcomp_char : (the default) then the nickname of the person | ||
+ | you are speaking to should be the part before the colon. If you use | ||
+ | another character, change this setting. | ||
+ | |||
+ | If you /set nickcomp_len 3 (the default), then there must be this many | ||
+ | character before the colon to qualify for automatic completion. If there | ||
+ | are fewer characters, it is not changed. | ||
+ | |||
+ | If you /set nickcomp_multi off (the default) and if the nickname you type | ||
+ | before the colon is ambiguous (expands to multiple nicknames) then the first | ||
+ | nick that matches will be used; if you set it to ON, then it will auto- | ||
+ | complete to ALL the nicknames, separated by commas. | ||
+ | |||
