Alias Block Question

Hi everyone,

apologies if the question sounds simple, but have gone through the documentation and cant seem to get my head around aliases. Writing a configuration file at the moment and it'd be great if someone could help

Cheers

What is confusing you about aliases?

Sorry to be so vague, just starting what are aliases used for?? I'm not sure I understand "server-side alias commands".

Thanks again

Alias, noun. A name, usually short and easy to remember and type, that is translated into another name or string, usually long and difficult to remember or type.

An alias lets you turn

Code: Select all

/msg nickserv

into

Code: Select all

/ns

for example.

You define the alias, and people then just have to type "/ns".
