======Synopsis:======
[[load]] guh

======Description:======
This script consists of a trio of functions, primarily aimed at fetching
information about other clients.  Each relies on a server query, so they
may not return the requested information immediately.

The first is $whatchan().  It takes a single nickname as its argument, and uses
[[WHOIS]] to try to return a list of channels that nickname is on.

The second is $is_on().  It also takes a single nickname as its argument.
If the nickname is currently on irc, it returns that nickname; it returns
nothing if it is not in use.

The last is $uh().  It takes an arbitrary number of nicknames as its
arguments, and uses them as the input arguments for a [[USERHOST
command|userhost]] call.  It returns the output from [[USERHOST
command|userhost]], usually a list of addresses, one per nickname.

======Other Notes:======
These functions were written by Jeremy Nelson (hop),
[[jnelson@acronet.net]].
