    I had an idea for a command to check the status of channels. Though I have no idea how this would
    be scripted, I feel as though it wouldn't be very difficult to make. Ideally, the command would fetch the registered status, the owners and the inviteonly status. Additionally it could display the population.


    On a channel that doesn't yet exist >

    Command:
    "/channel [nonexistent channel]"

    Result:
    (timestamp) Whatever bot: [nonexistent channel] is unregistered.
    (timestamp) Whatever bot: Owners are:
    (timestamp) Whatever bot: [existent channel] is not invite only
    (timestamp) Whatever bot: Channel population: 0

    On a registered channel >

    Command:
    "/channel [existent channel]"

    Result:
    (timestamp) Whatever bot: [existent channel] is registered.
    (timestamp) Whatever bot: Owners are: Owner1, Owner2, Onwner3
    (timestamp) Whatever bot: [existent channel] is invite only
    (timestamp) Whatever bot: Channel population: [number of persons in channel]


    Hopefully that makes sense.

    As far as a channel being unregistered, it should just stop after the first line really. Owners wouldn't be defined, there would be no invite only settings, and more often than not, it will be completely empty.

    Not trying to shoot down a suggestion, but what ideally would be the purpose of these commands? You could try joining the channel and you'd know right away if it was invite only or not. If it wasn't, then you'd get an idea of population and could use /cauth to get the owners.

    I imagine this could be used for getting some information from inside an invite-only channel.
