<h1>Action Messages</h1>
|
|
|
|
"Action Messages" are a bit of an extension to the CyanChat protocol. It's not
|
|
actually supported on the CC server, but several home-made CC clients support
|
|
this.
|
|
|
|
<h2>IRC-Style /me Actions</h2>
|
|
|
|
Typing in "/me <action>" in the message space is the standard way of sending
|
|
an action message. To all clients who support the feature, your message should appear
|
|
special on their client. To those which don't support the feature, they'll simply
|
|
see "/me <action>" from you.
|
|
|
|
<h2>Automatic Actions</h2>
|
|
|
|
There is an option on the <a href="misc.html">Miscellaneous</a> tab of the Preferences
|
|
window which will automatically display certain messages in the "action" format.<p>
|
|
|
|
When enabled, a message that begins and ends with asterisks (*) will automatically be
|
|
displayed as action messages.
|
|
|
|
<h2>Typo Messages</h2>
|
|
|
|
Typo messages are similar to action messages in that they display in a special color.
|
|
When a message is received that begins with a * but doesn't end with one, the message
|
|
is displayed normally, but the text is displayed in the "action color"
