XChat Parse Netlink Messages Script

This Perl script for XChat parses messages relayed from one IRC channel to another (typically on a different network) by the NetLink eggdrop script written by David Proper and turns them into "normal" channel messages. So, instead of appearing to come from the nick of the bot doing the relaying, with "(user@network)" appended to the message, they'll appear to have come directly from the user who sent the message.

To Do

• Handle joins / parts / mode changes etc elegantly
• Perhaps interrogate netlink script for list of users on other channel periodically and add 'faked' users to our userlist so it appears they're on the channel we're on.
