Hi,

I created an IRC-Client and it works fine already, but there is a problem(?). If your on a Channel and someone is OP and HalfOP same time... So if someone deops a guy the client has to know that hes also a halfop, there is the Problem...U can only know that hes a halfop when u saw someone halfopped him... u cant see it if u join the channel because an irc server only sends the highest prefix @353.

Is there no way to solve that Problem?

U can easy test it with mirc urself, halfop(%) and op(@) someone then /part, then /join then deop that guy.... mirc doesnt show the prefix the guy still has (%) but u know he has it because u cant give him +h again.

well this isnt a client problem but a server problem..isnt it?

What to do? that is a little bit sad...

It's more of a protocol problem imo, but you could do a /who #channel once in a while to get all current prefixes... /who nick might give you the correct info if you're lucky, it always gives info about one channel instead of all the channels you're both on...

Hi Kelder,

thank you for your message.

Ive already tried /WHO, but i dont get the prefixes, all i get is:

#night jimbo H@ ~Jimbo@euirc-d10e5052.dip.t-dialin.net :2 Arsch
#night tizer H+ ~java@euirc-edc9b514.149-136-217.adsl.skynet.be :2 Java User
#night neels H+ ~pv34234p@euirc-a131b1fd.dip0.t-ipconnect.de :2 234 324234
#night derGrandy H+ ~AlBlade2@pogt.und.mosht.durchs.euirc.net :2 P4R4DOCS


and so on..

jimbo is % for example, not @.

any ideas?

Ah, sorry for the misinformation then My network only has ov and even those are sometimes considered overkill.

Dunno how to get it then, suppose you're not interested in /mode -h+h nick nick :tongue:

You could use /whois ... It'll display like this:

Riamus is [email]Riamus@*EDIT*[/email] * Ria
Riamus has identified for this nick
Riamus on @#invision-beta !@+#Invision
Riamus using irc.irchighway.net The IRCHighWay Network
Riamus End of /WHOIS list.

As you can see, I am @ in #Invision-beta and !, @, + in #Invision. Since those are displayed in /whois, then you could write a script using the RAW for that to get the modes. I don't do a lot with RAWs, so I don't know which RAW this is right now. Someone else can probably tell you faster than I can find it out.

The only problem is that some servers/nickmodes prevent viewing the channel info of a user... although you USUALLY can view the info for any channel you're both connected to even if it blocks all other channels from being seen.

If the server is not putting the channel mode in the who string then its a server problem the output of a who on a channel assuming your in it, should reveal
Channel NickName G/H ChannelMode [email]Ident@Host[/email] :Hops Real Name
G means away H means here and other things will appear before/after the channel mode like * which means oper and some other servers have others
