Some special messages are logged incorrectly #828

Open irssibot opened 12 years ago

irssibot commented 12 years ago

If a user sends an Op-message to #channel (with /msg @#channel), irssi logs it correctly (adding it to the current transcript for #channel). However (and I'm not sure with how many other types of messages it does this with), if a user sends an Admin-message (/msg &#channel), irssi will create a new transcripts folder called &#channel and start a new transcript just for that message, rather than adding it to the transcript in the #channel folder.

(I'm not sure how many versions are affected by this bug, but I found it on an Ubuntu machine running irssi v0.8.15.)

Irssi doesn't currently recognise &#channel (msg to all channel admins) or %#channel (msg to all channel half-ops) as being valid channel targets, so it logs and displays them incorrectly.

Or +#channel (msg to all channel Voices). I'm not sure if the network considers !#channel a valid target, but you may want to look into that as well, for opers…although I don't imagine that it'd be used too often.
