Forums Scripts & Popups chan ops voices etc

I notice on some scripts people have scripted it so when someone talkes in a chan. you see not only a timestamp
but what there status is in the chan.. be it op voice or nothing.
example:
[8:48 am][@][Nick01] Whats up
[8:49 am][+][Nick02] not much just idling...
[8:50 am][_][Nick03] whats happening today?

I have tryed using remote scripting with /haltdef and echo to try and simulate it but all it does is repeat with echo

I have tryed finding a raw command number for it. and nothing. So I am really curious as to how one does something like that. Im not asking for a full script as to how.. but if someone could point me in a good direction to doing it that would be great. Thanks.

You use the "^" prefix in the event if you wish to halt the default output.

on ^*:text:*:#:{
...
haltdef
}

see /help halting default text

Wouldn't Alt-O / IRC / show mode prefix do it?
