ncweber | When I log in to the group, I get a pop-up message from something called "frigg". Does anyone know what that is? | 14:13 |
---|---|---|
maco | the group? | 14:23 |
maco | this channel, you mean? | 14:23 |
ncweber | Sorry, yes this channel. | 14:56 |
ncweber | This is the message I get: | 14:56 |
ncweber | (09:44:34) frigg: | 14:56 |
ncweber | Received CTCP 'VERSION' (to ncweber) from frigg | 14:56 |
ncweber | I'm still new to the whole IRC thing. Plus, I'm using Pidgin to connect, and Pidgin refers to the channel as a group. *shrug* | 14:58 |
=== bcurtiswx_ is now known as bcurtiswx | ||
maco | ncweber: frigg would be some other user on the freenode server, but it's not someone in this channel | 16:05 |
maco | they did a command that requests info about what irc client you are using | 16:05 |
ncweber | I see. | 16:26 |
ncweber | Kind of a 'whois' sort of thing? | 16:26 |
maco | there is also a whois command | 16:28 |
maco | that tells you if they have the "real name" field set and which freenode server they're on, and if they lack a cloak then itd show the ip address too | 16:29 |
maco | ctcp version is like a whois for your pidgin instead of for you | 16:29 |
maco | cuz all itd tell them is that you're running pidgin version whatever | 16:29 |
ncweber | Cool. Thanks. | 16:50 |
bcurtiswx | maco, any chance you'd get to make it to TOI this weekend? | 18:15 |
