Commands

When this module is loaded it watches user input for channels starting with ~ (tilde)

This means that you can /join ~#channel and the module will catch this and join you to the internal channel without forwarding that message on to IRC. Anyone connected to your ZNC will be able to join any ~#channel with eachother regardless of which irc network they are connected to.

You can also /msg ?zncuser to have a private chat with another user connected to your ZNC.
