From the makers of InspIRCd.

Commands

This section documents all valid server to server commands which are specific to InspIRCd. Most commands are similar or identical to RFC 1459 to make adding support to other programs (such as services packages) straightforward. Where commands are not documented here, they are transmitted across the spanning tree in standard form, replacing nicknames with UUIDs and server names with SIDs:

:<uuid> COMMAND <parameters>

For example:

:497AAAAAB PRIVMSG #chatspike :Moo moo!

or,

:497AAATXV MODE #chatspike +ov 497AAAAAB 497AAAAAB

Where commands are part of the RFC (RFC 1459, RFC 2812), but their behaviour or their syntax is different, the commands are documented here in their InspIRCd form.

Modular Commands

Modular commands are ones implemented in separate modules, rather than in m_spanningtree.so. Click below for more information on these commands.
