I would like my my fellow monks to consider
/${username} be mapped to /msg ${username}.
I have noticed many people (myself included)
make this typo from time to time. Also as some
have pointed out many new users attempt to use
this syntax to affect a /me. Some might
consider this saving them face.
Another thing to consider is mapping /msh and /msj to /msg. Another rather common typo.
It should be noted that this isn't really intended and shouldn't change much of anything in the CB per se exept reduce the # of untintentional messages. Although some might enjoy the occasional peek into the thoughts and conversations of others ;-)
