Hooking Server Numerics
In addition to the numerous named hooks provided by the client (refer to the
ON command in Section 5), BitchX and EPIC can hook any numeric reply sent
by a server. They are treated no differently from named hooks. Space
constraints prevent a full discussion of all server numerics, not to mention
that they tend to differ from network to network.
A small subset of commonly used numerics are provided for convenience. A
mostly full listing can be found in the irc protocol specification, RFC 1459
(though you should look in the ircd source code for an exact list; they are
in the file s_err.c in standard ircd distributions).
