instead of standard wildcard.
In this case, since it's antirandom, it is not really important
as someone is not going to add DNS records specially to avoid
triggering antirandom. That makes no sense since it is much
easier to avoid using a random looking name.
Main reason of changing it here is to set a good example.
Replace it with a reference to the documentation instead of trying
to include some or all of the defaults since 1) the block is huge
nowadays with all the settings, and 2) this way we can tweak the
defaults over time in newer versions rather than having people
change their configuration file.
See https://ircv3.net/specs/client-tags/reply for the draft.
Can be used by clients to indicate to which message they are writing
a reply. This can be especially useful for bots, to indicate that
a response belongs to a user request, eg a !trigger.
The new target type is called 'T' and we match against "name=value"
of each message tag (or just "name" if it is without value).
Example: SPAMFILTER ADD -simple T kill 0 this_is_a_test +typing=active
(No this is not a suggestion :D)
This probably won't be used much at all, but it is good to have the
option available in case there is some massive problem,
especially since more message tags may pop up sooner or later.
Caveat: this is actually a bit slow as we may have to check multiple
message tags for a single line.
If there are zero message-tag spamfilters then we will automatically
short-circuit and save all this CPU, which will be the most common case.

Current status of the module in UnrealIRCd:
* A significant part of this is done and working
* Currently in modules.optional.conf to get test exposure,
not yet loaded by default.
* CHATHISTORY subcommands implemented: BEFORE, AFTER, LATEST, AROUND
* It does not implement the subcommand "BETWEEN" yet
* It does not announce or recognize the (draft) CAP's yet
* It does not announce the ISUPPORT token CHATHISTORY=xx yet
* Testcases need to be written to validate everything
* There will be bugs, now, and also while implementing the rest
in the days to come.
The new display field is called 'R', use something like:
WHO * %cuhsnfmdaRr
At the moment only "displaying" is available and not "searching"
on reputation. If you need that, you're stuck with the /REPUTATION
command at the moment. Too much hassle to implement that.
About reputation: https://www.unrealircd.org/docs/Reputation_score
* There are two security groups by default: known-users and unknown-users.
See https://www.unrealircd.org/docs/Security-group_block
* New extended ban ~G:securitygroupname, with the typical usage being
MODE #chan +b ~G:unknown-users, which will ban all users from the
channel that are not identified to services and have a reputation
score below 25.
This is 1,5 years after 459a55245a
and we're on a new series too (5.0), so it was about time.
And YES you may still use }; if you want to. There are no
plans to deprecate or warn about it.
We simply ship with } in the shipped configs because it is
more logical that both { and } don't require a ; rather
than only { not requiring it.
so they can fetch more history than the standard on-join history.
In the future we are also likely to implement IRCv3 CHATHISTORY
once that becomes an official specification. However, until it is
specified and until most major clients support it, several years
are likely to pass. It would be a shame to withhold channel
history to many end-users in the meantime when it takes so little
effort from us to provide an easy command.

which explains the relationship between on-join playback,
HISTORY and CHATHISTORY.
