+# $EPIC: meta-compat.txt,v 1.2 2007/02/20 02:39:55 jnelson Exp $
+======Synopsis:======
+[[load]] meta-compat \\
+[[bind]] <sequence> <action>
+======Description:======
+Older versions of the client did not have the ability to [[bind]] arbitrary
+strings.  Instead, there was a state machine that you could control to handle
+complex sequences.  Although the client has not required manual control
+of the state machine since epic4pre2.001, older scripts may often still
+try to control the state machine when they bind things like "META2-[" or
+whatever.  These scripts don't work any more.
+If you need to load an old script that sets up keybindings by binding the
+meta states, you can [[load]] this script first, and it automagically
+takes care of the details.  It uses black magic, you don't want to know.
+It's a good idea to update old scripts to not use meta states.
+======History:======
+This script was written by the master of ircII black magic, |Rain|, and
+first appeared in epic4-1.2.5.
