Description Christian (Fuchs) 2012-08-22 22:36:02 UTC
As discussed on IRC recently, just to have it documented in a clean way: 

In order to extend scriptability in konversation a bit, it would be handy if more information was available to scripts. A thing that often comes up is details to a nick which has been passed as an argument, such as the whole  nick!ident@host and GECOS.  This would help for a few kinds of scripts, such as irssis stalker.pl, a script to match bans/quiets or similar things.
Another great thing would be if there was a possibility to catch possible service replies to queries and have them available, too. 

The way on accessing these  (whether via dbus or directly passed) is not that important, as long as documentation and/or examples are available. 

This would probably make a few more advanced IRC users (including operators and opers) lifes a lot easier. 

Thanks in advance :) 

Reproducible: Always
