XChat
Bletch, Last night I decided I wanted to reorganise the display of /who output and /stats l in xchat to be more readable. A simple task yes? Well, no. Xchat allows for hooking the numerics directly before xchat gets it’s sticky paws on them, however when you do that, Xchat won’t recieve them and then it won’t update it’s nicklist for things like /away status. Sigh, ok, so how are things displayed? It uses the event “Server Text”, however “Server Text” doesn’t tell you what kind of server text you are seeing so you can’t hook just /who output. So I wrote a patch to XChat that made numerics be sent using a “Server Numeric” event, which provides which numeric it is. Still, it’s not very pretty, but it works.
