Summary0003866: New Packet hook
DescriptionThe hook allows to catch and modify all commands sent by a client, or commands to be sent to a client. We tried to create it ourselves, and got it working (attached diff). The hook is used by a module that converts character encoding (Polish irc network, charsets iso-8859-2, utf-8, windows-1250).
The buffer must not be replaced when receiving message from client, and should be replaced (with static char[] declared in the module function) when sending message to client, otherwise strange things will happen.
I'm not sure that HOOKTYPE_PACKET is the best name, but my friend, who helped me to code this module, suggested it.
Did not test with multiple functions using the hook.

Added in CVS (.771), thanks for the patch :)

- Applied patch from k4be (0003866) which introduces a new packet hook
  (HOOKTYPE_PACKET). Replacing the 'text to be sent' to a client is
  supported, which allows character(set) conversion in a module.
  Note that modifying an incoming message by the hook is not supported.
