     line of a file can contain a type formatter from the following list:

	    %B	   Use the broadcast attribute (???).

	    %C	   Execute the line as if the user entered it as a command.

	    %E	   Use the error attribute (red).

	    %I	   Use the info attribute (yellow).  This is the same was %W.

	    %M	   Normal chat message (white).  This will appear as if the user
		   said it.

	    %T	   Emote  chat	message  (???).  This will appear as if the user
		   said it.

		   cludes all permanent and current temporary channels.

		   leading pound (#) sign and leading zeros.
