+# $EPIC: irclib.txt,v 1.3 2006/08/21 03:39:11 sthalik Exp $
+======Synopsis:======
+$__irclib__()
+======Technical:======
+This function returns the path to the irc library that the client is currently
+using.  This value is set at client boot time and does not change afterwards.
+The irc library path influences the default values of /[[SET]] [[set
+LOAD_PATH|LOAD_PATH]] and /[[SET]] [[set HELP_PATH|HELP_PATH]].
+======Practical:======
+The user is able to override the default path used by /[[LOAD]] and /[[HELP]],
+but with this function, you can usually find the "stock" versions of scripts or
+help files, if you wanted to load those instead.  This value can be changed by
+the user by setting the IRCPATH environment variable at client-boot time, so it
+is not entirely trustworthy.  There is no way to get the client's compiled-in
+default path.
+======Examples:======
+<file>
+load $irclib()/script/motd                  /* loads the "motd" script */
+</file>
