These bans look like ~<type>:<stuff>. Currently the following bans are available:
~q: quiet bans (ex: ~q:*!*@blah.blah.com). People matching these bans can join
but are unable to speak, unless they have +v or higher.
~c: channel bans (ex: ~c:#idiots). People in #idiots are unable to join the channel.
~r: gecos (realname) bans (ex: ~r:*Stupid_bot_script*). If the realname of a user
matches this then (s)he is unable to join.
NOTE: an underscore ('_') matches both a space (' ') and an underscore ('_'),
so this ban would match 'Stupid bot script v1.4'.
These bantypes can also be used in the channel exception list (+e).
+e ~r:*w00t* makes anyone with 'w00t' in their realname able to join,
and +e ~c:#admin makes anyone in #admin able to join, etc..
This system allows modules to add extended bantypes too.
This feature requires some additional testing, also the module interface will
probably be changed in the next few weeks, and perhaps more extended bans will
be added before next release.. we'll see...
- Normal users can now get a list, versioninfo will be hidden however.
- Opers get some additional details like hooks and commandoverride's.
- Opers can use /module <servername> to get a remote list of loaded modules.
- Added flag [3RD] to show it's a 3rd party module
This was requested by by quite some people because serveradmins started to load
"spy modules" without clearly mentioning it in the MOTD (which is highly unethical
and in some countries even illegal due to privacy law). Also the remote module
list was requested by quite a few opers.
Sure, this isn't a 100% guarantee but at least if someone goes hiding stuff
then it's clear what their intentions are (and thus will be refused support, ..).
- Changed emailaddr in help window at windows to unreal-users mailinglist.
- Made the cloak mismatch msg during linking a bit more scary.
- Added comment to 'Install as a service' option in installer to help n00bs a bit.
- Changed some useless stuff.
- Enabled EXTCMODE by default, I presume it's stable but can't promise anything.
- Module coders: changed 'allowed' callback function for umodes&snomasks,
from 'aClient *sptr' to 'aClient *sptr, int what'.
'what' will be MODE_ADD if trying to add and MODE_DEL if trying to remove.
- Module coders: new hooks: part, kick, chanmode, topic. changed: quit (added 'comment' param).
- Enlarged REPORT_* vars a bit.
- IPv6: UnrealIRCd can now lookup ip6.arpa addresses too (original IRCnet patch modified for
UnrealIRCd by Onliner).
* Removed thread questions from Config, and autoconf code from
configure.in, leaving in the old macros though, but inactive
--enable-standardthreads is dead as of now
* Undefined HOOKTYPE_SCAN_INFO
* Removed CONF_EXCEPT_SCAN
* Removed locking in events, Lock/UnlockEventSystem still active for other
possible uses.
* Removed scanners, web server module
* Removed except scan {}
* Removed SCAN_API stuff from l_commands.c, win32 makefiles, etc
* Removed basically any mentions of threads in source tree, excepting
threads.h which Resolver uses on win32
* Documentation changes not done yet
- Module changes: added two hooks: HOOKTYPE_USERMSG and HOOKTYPE_CHANMSG, changed umode_get.
The HOOKTYPE_USERMSG has been tested with a +D (deaf for private msgs except for opers)
module, the channel thing not yet...
added global/local mode flag to umode_get, or use umode_lget (local) / umode_gget (global) :P.
Blah.
