Changes since ircII 20060725:
o /on channel_signoff works again
o try to split ICB messages at word boundaries
o disallow many IRC commands on ICB
o /ping works on ICB
o revert the utf-8 changes for large lastlog performance reasons.
there should be a re-implementation coming in the future.
o default status line now tells you when you are scrolled up
o new variables status_scrolled and status_scrolled_lines
o new status format modifiers %P and %s
o fixed a bug with the input prompt being overtaken
o /set translation has been removed. all encoding support now depends
on the existance of iconv(3) support, enhancing the capabilities and
correctness of codeset conversion. the translation and iso2022_support
variables have been replaced with input_encoding, display_encoding
and irc_encoding
o /msg -server <servergroup|servername|number> <target> <message>
now works to send message on specific servers ie, other than the
current window's server
o support new $IRCSERVERSFILE that overrides $LIBDIR/ircII.servers
passing -Xc to sunpro defines __STDC__=1 and the build fails in
ircsig.c because <signal.h> only declares sigaction if __STD__=0.
fixes build on Solaris w/ sunpro.
o server's added by /server are no longer removed if they fail to connect.
o SEVERAL REMOTE HOLES FIXED in ctcp, status & other code
o fix ICB /msg to names starting with a /. you can now /msg \/oink to send
a message to "/oink". if you previously were able to /msg \oink you now
have to /msg \\oink.
o arithmetic "|" now works properly
o fix ICB /msg with a user the same name as the channel
o fix ICB group's and user's with comma's in them
o /notify and /timer always go to level crap now

o new /on icb_who and /on icb_motd
o all high control chars should be now properly filtered avoiding

hitten them once you had (ie sticky forever)

o add /server -group, allowing proper multi-network configuration
o fix tabkey for people who join channels

o add missing docs for /set tab, decrypt_program, show_stars and
iso2022_support
o new /on window_list for /window list output hookery
o /window create now takes -xterm and -screen flags to force either a
xterm or screen window to be created, rather than forcing the choice
