+ | ======Synopsis: | ||
+ | __describe__ < | ||
+ | |||
+ | ======Description: | ||
+ | __DESCRIBE__ lets you perform an action. | ||
+ | doing as though someone is watching you, rather than you telling them. | ||
+ | You may send an action to either an individual or to an entire channel. | ||
+ | |||
+ | __DESCRIBE__ is identical to [[CTCP]] [[ctcp ACTION|ACTION]]. | ||
+ | action to a channel, it functions identically to the [[ME]] command. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Because this makes use of [[CTCP]] (Client To Client Protocol), it is | ||
+ | not guaranteed that the person to whom you send the description will | ||
+ | see it properly. | ||
+ | you may receive an error message back. This is normal and may be safely | ||
+ | ignored. | ||
+ | |||
+ | ======Examples: | ||
+ | If your nickname is foobar, and you want to send an action to your | ||
+ | friend whose nickname is booya: | ||
+ | /describe booya is eating pizza | ||
+ | |||
+ | To send an action to channel #blah: | ||
+ | /describe #blah is eating pizza | ||
+ | |||
+ | Anyone receiving an action from you will see something like this: | ||
+ | * foobar is eating pizza | ||
