- Keep non-rfc1459 +eI as they are very common. - Change heading to "common channel modes" and add a remark below referring the user to network-specific documentation; because we use 005 CHANMODES it is less important which cmodes irssi knows internally. - Some minor tweaking. git-svn-id: http://svn.irssi.org/repos/irssi/trunk@4580 dbcabf3a-b0e7-0310-adc4-f8d773084564

Common channel modes are:
|
|
|
|
i - Invite only - People can't join to channel without being
|
|
/INVITEd, or being in invite list (+I, see below).
|
|
m - Moderated - People who don't have voices (+v) can't send
|
|
messages to channel
|
|
p - Private - People who aren't joined to channel can't see it
|
|
for example with /WHOISing people who are in channel.
|
|
s - Secret - Like private, but the channel isn't displayed in
|
|
/LIST's output.
|
|
n - No external msgs - Without this mode, anyone can send messages
|
|
to channel without even being joined.
|
|
t - Topic can be changed only by channel operators.
|
|
|
|
k <key> - Channel password (aka. key) - The channel can't be joined
|
|
without specifying the channel key (see section 6.2).
|
|
|
|
l <count> - User limit - No more than <count> people can join to
|
|
channel. This can be overridden with /INVITE with some
|
|
servers.
|
|
|
|
This is usually used for protecting channel from join
|
|
flooding, like some bot allows max. 5 users to join in
|
|
one minute or so.
|
|
|
|
b - Set/remove ban. For example MODE #channel +b *!*@*.org bans
|
|
everyone from .org domain.
|
|
|
|
If someone from .org domain was already in channel before the
|
|
ban was set, he/she cannot send any messages to channel (doesn't
|
|
work with all servers).
|
|
|
|
Bans can also be overridden with /INVITE, although many stupid
|
|
IRC clients automatically kick the user out because they see
|
|
the ban and think that because of it the user shouldn't be in
|
|
the channel (doesn't work with all servers).
|
|
|
|
e - Ban exceptions. You could for example ban everyone from
|
|
*!*@*.org but set ban exception to *!*@*.host.org - does not work
|
|
with all servers.
|
|
|
|
I - Invite list. If channel is invite only (+i), people in this
|
|
list can join it without being /INVITEd - does not work with all
|
|
servers.
|
|
|
|
This is excellent for in-country channels that don't want
|
|
foreigners (spammers!) to join the channel, for example setting
|
|
channel's mode to +i and +I *!*@*.fi allows only finnish people
|
|
to join the channel. In addition to this, there's usually a bot
|
|
in the channels and sending /MSG bot invite command to it
|
|
/INVITEs you to the channel.
|
|
|
|
On IRCnet, the ':' feature in channel names can also be used for
|
|
a similar effect, see section 6.2.
|
|
|
|
o <nick> - Grant or revoke channel operator status from nick
|
|
v <nick> - Grant or revoke voice status from nick, only people with
|
|
+v (or +o) can talk to channel when it's moderated (+m).
|
|
|
|
You can send multiple mode changes with one mode command:
|
|
|
|
/MODE #channel +nto-o+v nick1 nick2 nick3
|
|
|
|
This would set channel's mode to +nt, give ops to nick1, take ops
|
|
from nick2 and give voices to nick3.
|
|
|
|
You can set only a limited number of modes that require an argument
|
|
in one command. In IRCnet it's 3, in EFnet it's 4 and in many others
|
|
it's 6. If it's not known, Irssi defaults to 3. Irssi will also
|
|
automatically split them, so you can use /MODE +oooooo n1 n2 ...
|
|
command to op 6 people and Irssi will split it to two commands in
|
|
IRCnet/EFnet.
|
|
|
|
Many networks have additional modes and/or change the meaning of existing
|
|
modes. Check the documentation for the network or the server software in
|
|
use for details.
