list

Syntax

LIST [-yes] [<channel>]

Parameters

-yes:	Confirms that you want to receive a large amount of data.

If the exact name of a channel is given, the only information about this channel is requested; otherwise, a list of all channels will be displayed.

Description

Displays the channel names that match your request; requesting all channels may cause the server to disconnect you for flooding.

Examples

/LIST
/LIST -yes
/LIST #ubuntu
/LIST #*ubuntu*,>1

Remarks

Not all networks support server-side filtering. Some provide a network service or service bot instead; on IRCnet, you may use the List service:

/SQUERY Alis HELP

Other networks with service bots (like ChanServ) may also provide a list service bot (confirm with /WHOIS ALIS):

/MSG Alis HELP
