52!identify
53You must identify yourself to change your settings and to use channel
54management commands. In ircII on chiark, just say `/blight-id'. For
55other clients, see `help identpass'. Once you are identified you can
56then register new nicks, change settings, etc. - so long as you
57remain on a channel that I'm on too. (See also `help invite'.)

59!blight-id
60/blight-id is a command available in ircII (and possibly other
61clients) on chiark. It sets up a password if you don't already have
62one, and then uses it to identify you to Blight. If you want to
63change your password, delete the file ~/.userv/irc-pass-md5.

65!identpass
66identpass <username> <password>
67 Identification, for example with /blight-id, is actually done with
4fd2739c 68 `identpass', which feeds the md5sum of the password to `userv

69 <username> irc-identpass <nick>'. That must exit 0 if all is well.

74!register
75register register your nick (or make it secure)
76register delete delete your nick registration
77register insecure register your nick insecurely
78 I only store settings for registered nicks. For `insecure' nicks
79 anyone who currently holds that nick can change its settings,
80 including securing it to their username. `secure' nicks can only
81 have their settings changed by the user to which they are
82 registered, after identifying themselves (see `help identify').
