There are no standard data structures, sadly. For nearly every irc event, i 
have had to code a separate test and data extraction paragraph.

Ok, i did a fair rewrite of the center part of that irc client code, and it 
responds to the server PING, to all "ctcp" commands (but replies to only the 
version and ping for now), and responds to numerics (but doesn't do anything 
about them). One reason i didn't do anything about replying is that i was 
considering an interpreter to run code in scripts outside the connection code, 
written while it's running,,, rather than run-test, disconnect-shut-down, 
change a line, reconnect-test.
