Bug Description
Binary package hint: gaim
In case of getting bumped from the network gaim uses alternate irc nicks of the form: (imagine that the nick is "username")
usernam1
usernam2 ..
etc.
however the user may have registered
username
username_
username__
etc., which is quite common
I'd like a way to add alternate nicks to gaims list, which is currently impossible; it would save the hassle of manually changing the nick and re-identifying.
