Summary : A CTCP encoding and decoding library for IRC clients
|
Description :
CTCP (Client To Client Protocol) is a way of sending arbitrary data over an IRC network, which may include bytes not allowed in standard IRC messages. CTCPs are sent as a PRIVMSG or NOTICE, where the first and last characters as \'\\001\' (SOH), and special bytes are escaped by encoding them into a two-byte sequence beginning with \'\\020\' (DLE). CTCPs consist of command name (typically in upper-case) followed by list of space-separated arguments, which may be empty.
One use of CTCPs supported by the vast majority of IRC clients today is the ACTION command, typically invoked with /me. For example, if the user \'foo\' in the channel \'#bar\' were to issue
> /me dances
everyone in the channel would receive the message
> :foo PRIVMSG #bar :001ACTION dances001
Other common uses of CTCP include requesting the name and version of a user\'s IRC client, their local time, determining ping times, and initiating file transfers (DCC).
Characters are escaped as follows:
[\'\\000\' (NUL)] \'\\020 \\060\' (\"0\")
[\'\\012\' (NL)] \'\\020 \\156\' (\"n\")
[\'\\015\' (CR)] \'\\020 \\162\' (\"r\")
[\'\\020\' (DLE)] \'\\020 \\020\'
All other appearences of the escape character are errors, and are dropped.
