RE: /list command

[Brad Barnett <bbarnett@L8R.net>]

 This command will list ALL THE CHANNELS ON THE SERVER!
 This can take eons, so this script has added the force
 keyword.  If you REALLY want to list all the servers,
 then use /list force

Something like that perhaps? ;)  That's part of my perl script, but its quite
strange that the channel list window would actually do that.  It doesn't here,
so what are you doing? ;)

You should only see that if you do /list in the input without a channel.
