Summary0002377: new cmd to change usermodes
Descriptionadding "umode <modes>" command instead of doing "mode <mynick> <modes>" for convenience of ppl. I don't know if I could do it through alias or not then i suggested here to see if it's popular or it'll be accepted to be part of UnrealIRCD comamnds.

mirc users can make aliases , but webusers must type their whole nickname always. I considered all users.

There's already /umode2 that does exactly the same thing.

But it would be nice to have "real" command aliases, of course... :-)

yes , I just tested that , but how should i knew that command exist! I didn't see it anywhere , in DOC or help.conf .
I don't know why "umode" command is reserved. maybe there are some reasons, thanks for the hint about /umode2 .

Becuase I wanted this feature a while ago (was suggested here and then closed), I managed to make a new module that provides this. It appears to work well for me, so I am willing to share it. You can download it from www.x-tab.org/~ircd/c_umode.tar.gz

where is the problem using /mode mynick +w (f.e.) ?
why should another command do the same if there is already a command
I'm sure webusers may copy/paste their nicks - and i don't believe a change of usermodes is done that often...

I don't know either, people that can't even type their own nick will quickly run into more trouble I think ;).

Anyway, just add an alias in your client, and for clients that don't support that.. either get a good client, or wait for command aliases (but I don't see that implemented soon). Or, indeed, /umode2, although that's kinda meant as an internal command.. it works ;).
