The /raw command toggles the raw events processing. With no parameters, the /raw command displays the current state (either disabled or enabled). Alternatively, the /raw command can be used to send text to the server AS IS.

Synopsis

/raw [on|off]
/raw [-qn] <string>

Switches

• -q - Prevents the text being sent to the server from being printed to the window.
• -n - Prevents UTF-8 encoding when sending characters in the 0-255 range.

Parameters

• [on|off] - Enables or disables raw events processing
• <string> - The data to be sent to the server

Example

To see the current state:

/remote

Which will print something like:

/raw can also be used to send text to the server:

/raw PRIVMSG #mIRC :Hello World!

The command above is equivalent to /msg #mIRC Hello World.
