With WATCH +server sends status information to client, instead of client sending +ISON's. Therefore WATCH is technically a bit smarter solution than +ISON/NOTIFY. Only disadvantage is WATCH not being "saved" in any way. +Once you disconnect, your WATCH list will get cleared. + +WATCH is based on a nick, and must be prepended with a plus ('+') to be +added to your silence list. A minus sign ('-') will remove an entry +from the list. With no arguments, WATCH returns a list of your WATCH +list entries. + +See also: NOTIFY, WHOIS, WHOWAS +
