/me


/me is used to 'emote' a line in a channel.

Typically when you type a statement, such as:

I went to the store.

Others would simply see the following:

<MyOwnNick> I went to the store.

When you use the /me statement, such as:

/me went to the store.

Others would simply see the following:

MyOwnNick went to the store.

It is a subtle difference, that makes more sense when you see it in a conversation. Typically a client will display the two types differently, including spacing, indentations and/or color changes.
