who

who Requests WHO information
Usage
who <filter>
Description
Requests WHO information about users/channels. The <filter> is a string specifying the subject of the query. In the standard IRC protocol the subject can be a nickname or a channel. If a channel name is used as filter then the list of all the users on that channel is returned. Recent IRC servers support the WHOX extension which specifies that the <filter> can have a much more complex syntax: <mask1> <options> [<mask2>]. <mask1> is a comma separated list of filters that can contain wildcards (* and ?), <options> is a set of characters specifying what <mask1> is matching (nicknames, channel names, user names, real names, IP addresses etc) and what kind of information should be returned. Look for the extended WHOX syntax on your favorite search engine. If no parameter is specified at all, it requests a WHO information about the current channel. This command is connection dependent.
Examples
# Lists users on #kvirc who #kvirc # WHOX: Get a list of +o users, aka ircops (works on unreal, bahamut, others) who 0 o%nuhs
