	      %c     Expand to the number of channels on the server.  This includes all permanent and current temporary channels.

	      %h     Expand to the hostname of the server (as returned by gethostname(2)).

	      %i     Expand to this user's account ID number, formatted with a leading pound (#) sign and leading zeros.

	      %l     Expand to this user's current chat name which is usually the same
