Hello,

One of the most asked questions in a help channel I'm in is "Why do I keep getting an error when I use $address?" 90% of the time the answer is because the haven't properly filled the Internal Address List.

I suspect one of the reasons is that using $address comes up fairly quickly when people are learning to script. However, the idea of the IAL doesn't. I think it would help a lot of people if the help file told them how to do that in the $address section. Or, at the very least, point them to the $ial section in the help file. A simple, "In order to fill the IAL you need to use /who #chan" would help immensely.

Thanks!
