Connection dependent commands |
Many KVIrc commands are connection dependent:
you need an IRC connection to successfully execute them;
usually because some data needs to be sent to the server.
This includes commands like whois,raw,query,
msg,notice,op,ctcp... These commands must be executed in a window that is bound to a connected IRC context. You will obviously get an error message if you try to use them in a window that has no associated IRC connection. For instance: whois will work only if you execute it in a console, channel or query window. If you want to use these commands in a window that is not associated to any IRC context you may use the standard -r switch. You can use the same switch to execute a command in an IRC context that is not the current one. |
