Nickname tab-completion
« on: January 11, 2008, 08:03:53 am »
1. I know it works now.
2. I'd like to see it work in the middle of the input buffer too
3. It'd be really nice if it 'skipped' special characters (clan tags, other shit people put on their nick, etc), like irssi does.

This is like the 549827 about this, hope it gets through this time.

There isn't really a great way to detect whats a clan tag and whats just some skiddie's name like <<>>[M][A][X]>><<

There could be a second slot (For the clan tag) That people put there tags in instead of the main one, so whatever is in that slot, is a tag.

Nah, that'd be overkill.

Enesce: I meant something simpler, like just ignoring special chars, etc, searching for a substr..

good idea, the more irc-like is the chat in soldat the better. /me (actions) wouldn't be that bad either :p

This sounds like a good idea, specially for admins. Maybe KeFear could add this to ARSSE also, that would be nice. Someone go tell him.

It would be lot easier if people didn't found clans with f*cked up tags.

Anyway, I support.

I agree.  I support it but it should jut match any subset of the nickname, no need to skip special characters or anything.
