Synopsis:
dcc raw <fd> <host> <message>
Description:
DCC RAW is a raw socket interface for ircII-EPIC. It allows the client
to control arbitrary TCP connections with a remote host on any port
desired.
The actual connection is established with the $connect() function. It
makes the connection and returns a file descriptor that is used by DCC
RAW to control the connection. The file descriptor will always be a
number (generally a small one). Incoming data from the remote host may
be hooked with ON DCC_RAW.
Examples:
To send a message to blah.foo.com over an existing raw DCC connection:
/dcc raw 6 blah.foo.com This is a sample message
See Also:
connect (6); listen (6); on (5) dcc_raw
Other Notes:
The applications for DCC RAW are endless. Since it allows the client
connect to any arbitrary host on any arbitrary port, a little creative
use of the scripting language can turn ircII-EPIC into a client for
most any remote service.
