help text
Usage: INFO [<server|#channel|nick>] Displays information about a server, channel or nick. If no parameter is specified, the information returned is about the server you are on. For servers, this information includes up-time, address, version, and how to connect to them. While for channels, it'll display data like the founder of the channel, the time of its registration, the topic, etc.. If a nickname is specified, then the info will include time of registration, last time the nick was online, and possibly email address and similar fields, if the user chose to publically display them. Examples: /info /info #downtown /info Charlotte /info chat.confrooms.org If you need any help with ConferenceRooms and are not sure what version you are running, use the info command. You can also use it if you have forgotten what web address to use to connect.
