34 <PRE>It probably wouldn't take (much) modification.
36 The way we quick-converted our source base over was more or less:
37 - Convert FindNick to find by UID if isdigit(*nick)
38 - Store UID in the user structure (you'll need to generate/store for
39 pseudoclients too, though, I guess. Though that code isn't too
44 That said, it may be a little more complex with services, depending on
45 how many functions are hardwired to send with nickname instead of UID.
46 As I recall, Services keeps a lot of these in core - when it would be
47 better served relegating some of the heavy lifting of formatting
48 messages, etc, to protocol modules.
50 Still. We'll wait and see, I guess. :)
