allow / in nicknames #527

Open xnite opened 6 years ago

xnite commented 6 years ago

This closes bug #526 allowing /'s in nicknames which fixes undefined nicks on pylinked networks.

IotaSpencer commented 6 years ago

Those checks are for the <1.0 versions and errored out due to the npm install breaking due to version constraints it seems. This fix would greatly help with non-standard ircds and those that allow the character but not in usual nicks, but a network that uses pylink would greatly appreciate this fix if they decide to use this irc library.
