Description

This event is triggered when a remote user issues a CTCP ACTION.
(The CTCP ACTION is usually triggered by the /me command).
The parameters $0-$2 identify the source user.
$3 identifies the message target and can be one of the following:
- The local user nickname : this is a private CTCP ACTION and is triggered inside a query window.
- A channel name : this is a channel CTCP ACTION and is triggered in the channel window.
- Any other string : this is either a broadcast CTCP ACTION (sent by a privileged user to a subset of clients) or a sign of the server brain damage :D In this case the event is triggered in the console window.
$5 is a hash of the current message tags, if available.
$6 will be 1 if the message was encrypted and 0 otherwise.
Calling halt in this event stops the message output.
