This so we have a few simple concepts:
Client: this can be a user, server, or something unknown yet
Then the type of clients:
User: this is a user, someone with a nick name.
Server: this is a server
Etc.
as cptr->from is NOT (necessarily) the server where cptr is connected to.
So we now call it cptr->direction since it indicates the directly connected
server (or &me)... in other words: the direction of the client path.
aChannel to Channel, and some more. Third party module coders will
love this. But.. it makes things more logical and the doxygen output
will look more clean and logical as well.
(More changes will follow)
and remove old dependency field (never used, was always NULL,
broken since 3.2.x)
I'll add some constraints later on things like names and versions.
IOTW: more changes to follow, don't mass update your own mods yet.
Note that the labeled-response implementation currently requires
'batch' and will always start a BATCH if there is any response.
Later on we can implement a simple queue so we don't have to
start a batch for 1-line responses (which works, but looks a bit
silly if you look at raw server traffic). That may be after alpha1,
though, as there are more (important) things to work on right now.
of match_simple() and match_esc(). So, developers, be aware, this is how
you should use the function in a correct way:
if (match_simple("*fun*", str))
printf("It was fun\n");
Rationale:
I've always been annoyed by the inversed logic, even though it was similar
to strcmp. So I've reverted it.
I could have chosen to maintain match() rather than this match_simple()
name, but this way I force (3rd party module) devs to update their function,
while otherwise everything would mysteriously fail due to the inverted logic.
I needed the target for echo-message, and also in the history module we no
longer save to the history any @#channel messages, since otherwise they
could be played back to people we shouldn't see them ;)
So rename src/modules/m_*.c to src/modules/*.c and update makefiles
and modules.default.conf. Also remove m_ at various places in the
source files, but not the CMD_FUNC(), just the module name.
