that would be bad to check for "/me", what about "/meow" ?

What about /Me, /ME or /me followed by another punctuation? Ie, "/me?", "/me!", etc...
Just asking because these comparisions with just "/me " and "/me'" seem very limited,
almost weird. More logical would be to not check anything at ALL - and either expand
things, or not. What happens if you just set a flag saying "whatever is in this
string, don't expand /me, /who, /whois, /kick etc" without at that point checking
for one specific case (missing possibly many other variations).

If it was me writing the original code I would not have made it case-sensitive, but as this is a bug fix and not a new feature I am following the current design of having just /me work. I didn't suggest to make it case insensitive, I wondered what happens
when you use /ME instead of /me with and without the patch.
And I wonder why it is necessary at all to compare a string with "/me ".
At the very least that indicates code duplication.
Let me clarify,
void do_it(std::string const& str)
{
if (!flag && str == "/me")
...
else
...
}
Bad code:
if (str == "/me")
flag = 1;
do_it(str);
-------------------------------------------
Code that makes more sense:
flag = 1;
do_it(str);
But keep in mind that I didn't look at the actual code ;). I just looked at your patch.
