If irssi's preferred nick is in use irssi will issue a whois command and report some information
on the current user of the nick. As the "is owned by" wording can be confusing to users of networks
with nickname registration, propose rephrasing this to "is in use by".
This was causing us to use the TLS settings from one server on another
which is not always appropriate. Instead, we now treat it like other
connection information and do not copy it. We get the TLS settings later
as appropriate when connecting.
Note there is still probably more that could be cleaned up here. For
example, the unix socket might be better treated as connection info too.
Fixes#1027.
This patch allows irc_op_public messages to properly trigger
hilights when the message mentions the current nick or one of our
hilights. This is done by copying the required code from
sig_message_public. This is important because Freenode has begun
using this message type for messages that can only be seen by ops
due to the +z channel mode, and ops will want to be notified of
watchwords even in that type of message.
To test, make two connections to Freenode, join a new channel. The
first client to join that channel will be an op. To establish a
baseline, use the non-opped client to attempt to "ping" the opped
client by addressing it by name and using terms in /hilight. Then,
set channel mode to +mz and use the non-opped client to send the
messages again. Without this patch, no message will "ping" the opped
client with +mz set. With this patch, "pings" should operate
normally, causing a bell, hilighting the window number, and so on.
What I don't know is whether there is any other code from
sig_message_public that should be copied over too. In particular,
the lines related to "ignore_check_plus", "emphasis", and
"printnick", I don't know if they are needed here. I also don't know
if there are any other message types that these changes should be
applied to.
