rcirc: Skipping /away messages using handlers
4.1 Skipping ‘/away’ messages using handlers
============================================
The IRC protocol specifies how certain events are signaled from server
to client. These events have numbers and are dealt with using so-called
handlers. You can override existing handlers by exploiting the naming
convention adopted for ‘rcirc’.
Here’s how to stop ‘rcirc’ from printing ‘/away’ messages. Since
‘rcirc’ doesn’t define a 301 handler, you don’t need to require ‘rcirc’
before defining the handler:
(defun rcirc-handler-301 (process cmd sender args)
"/away message handler.")
