Documentation for the Herald plugin for Supybot
Purpose
Greets users who join the channel with a recognized hostmask with a nice little greeting.
Commands
- add [<channel>] <user|nick> <msg>
Sets the herald message for <user> (or the user <nick|hostmask> is currently identified or recognized as) to <msg>. <channel> is only necessary if the message isn't sent in the channel itself.
- change [<channel>] [<user|nick>]
<regexp>
Changes the herald message for <user>, or the user <nick|hostmask> is currently identified or recognized as, according to <regexp>. If <user> is not given, defaults to the calling user. <channel> is only necessary if the message isn't sent in the channel itself.
- default [<channel>] [--remove|<msg>]
If <msg> is given, sets the default herald to <msg>. A <msg> of "" will remove the default herald. If <msg> is not given, returns the current default herald. <channel> is only necessary if the message isn't sent in the channel itself.
