Show chat history

[mutru]

Some options, or a combination of them:

• Show messages mentioning my name automatically when connecting
• Implement a /history #channel command. It would essentially break the IRC spec, but I guess most clients relay unknown commands directly to the server.
• Catch a chat message like !history, and instead of relaying it to other users, fetch the history.
• Simply offer a link to the web UI when joining a channel.
• Check out how ZNC does this.

Having chat history would be a major improvement, it's my number 1 flowdock feature request.

I vote for something like:

!history - would display all missed messages with my name (immediate command)
!history all - would display all missed messages since my last connection (immediate command)
!history onconnect none|myself|all - would let me configure on connect behaviour (config command)

This would be a big improvement.

I'd love to be able to see history since I last logged in.

I never +1, but +1.
