Restrict mode will focus on sandboxing, while kiosk will continue
to restrict IRC access through a public kiosk. Kiosk mode without
restrict mode allows execution of man 1 catgirl with /help, assuming
external sandboxing.
The /list and /part commands are also added to the list of disabled
commands in kiosk mode, since they are pointless without access to
/join.
This allows limiting the nick colors used to the 16-color terminal set
without modifying the TERM environment variable. Produces different
results from just using the default configuration in a 16-color
terminal, but what can you do?
Split ignore fields and match each separately to avoid an early *
eagerly matching across several fields. For example, "* JOIN * *" should
not match messages which happen to contain the word "JOIN" followed by
two other words.
Ignore capacity is reduced to 64 to keep the size of the array the same.
I don't think it's an issue.
While the automatic search via LESS is neat, I don't think it's very
useful. Just always open the manual to the COMMANDS section, and fix it
to append to LESS rather than replace it.
It's pretty awkward with large channels since NAMES isn't sorted by
prefixes or anything... But having it accumulate names across many
replies would require more reworking.
Still missing: split scrolling and preserving a blank on reflow either
from resize or ignore toggling.
Anecdata: on one of my instances of catgirl, RAM usage of the previous
release was ~30M, RAM usage of this commit was ~12M.
Apparently IRCds have decided that the 15-parameter limit doesn't matter
anymore. 254 is the maximum number of single-byte parameters (following
a single-byte command) which fit in a 512-byte CR-LF-terminated line.
When everyone decides that the 512-byte line length limit doesn't matter
either, I will delete my software and people can use some JavaScript
garbage instead.
This makes struct Message 2080 bytes, but there's only ever one or two
of them around at once. Avoid passing it by value to handle.
