Usage: ON [#|+|-|^|&|@]MSG [-|^]<parameters> [action]
This is activated whenever you receive a MSG from someone.
The parameters for the action are as follows:
$0 nickname of person who sent the MSG
$1- The message
Warning: If you attempt to send a MSG from within a MSG
action, it will be automatically converted to a NOTICE, as
this will prevent MSG loops from being sent between two or
more users. Also, you will not be permitted to send either
MSGs or NOTICEs from within a NOTICE action. The irc protocol
states that NOTICEs may not generate automatic replies so this
will prevent loops of automatic messages from flooding the net.
