+ | ======Synopsis: | ||
+ | [[dcc]] chat < | ||
+ | |||
+ | ======Description: | ||
+ | [[DCC]] CHAT offers to another user, or accepts an offer from another user, | ||
+ | for a direct connection between your clients. | ||
+ | you to talk to that person without the messages passing through any irc | ||
+ | network. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Because the messages are not sent over irc, they are both less prone to | ||
+ | snooping by others on irc, and they are delivered faster and have | ||
+ | guaranteed delivery (which irc does not guarantee because of netsplits). | ||
+ | |||
+ | Because the messages are not sent over irc, it requires that the other | ||
+ | peer know your IP address. | ||
+ | spoofed on the network. | ||
+ | those who you do not want to know your ip address. | ||
+ | |||
+ | To send a message across a [[DCC]] CHAT connection, use the [[MSG]] | ||
+ | command as you normally would, but prefix the other person' | ||
+ | an equals-sign (' | ||
+ | original [[DCC]] CHAT command. | ||
+ | irc, you must still refer to them by the nickname you gave to [[DCC]] CHAT. | ||
+ | You can change the < | ||
+ | |||
+ | You can send a [[CTCP]] command across a [[DCC]] CHAT connection (allowing you | ||
+ | to initiate a [[DCC]] [[DCC SEND|SEND]], | ||
+ | supports CTCP-over-DCC. | ||
+ | |||
+ | The [[DCC]] CHAT connection persists until either the connection is | ||
+ | voluntarily closed by either party using [[dcc]] [[dcc close|close]], | ||
+ | when either party terminates their client. | ||
+ | |||
+ | If you offer a [[DCC]] CHAT connection and the other person does not accept it, | ||
+ | you can re-tender the offer by using [[DCC]] CHAT again. | ||
+ | duplicate [[CTCP]] message to the other peer, to let them know that you are | ||
+ | still offering the connection. | ||
+ | |||
+ | If the -p flag is present you may specify the port that the client | ||
+ | should use for the connection. | ||
+ | |||
+ | All the usual caveats about using [[dcc]] behind a NAT router apply. | ||
+ | |||
+ | ======Examples: | ||
+ | /dcc chat bob Offer a DCC CHAT connection to " | ||
+ | the current network. | ||
+ | /msg =bob Hi there bob! Send a message to " | ||
+ | bob has accepted the connection. | ||
+ | changes his nickname on irc, you would still | ||
+ | use " | ||
