Flags and flag groups

Helpmebot now uses a flag-based access control system, and as such the commands that can be accessed are determined by which flags you have available to you.

Bear in mind that these flags can be granted to a hostmask, NickServ account, channel mode, or channel, and as such your "voiced" or "opped" status, or even the channel you are in might change the flags you have available to you at that time.

The currently defined flags are listed below.

Summary

Allows use of the information commands, which provide information which is publicly available

Allows access to the WP:ACC commands, including !accstatus and !acccount

F Access to fun commands

Allows use of the fun commands, such as !trout where those commands have been enabled in the channel.
