======Synopsis:======
[[load]] netsplit

======Description:======
Not to engage in hyperbole, but this is the oldest and most legendary script
in the ircII heritage.  It's usage is functionally universal.

Normally when a netsplit occurs, your server sends you [[on quit|quit]]
messages for everyone on the other side of the split.  Then when the
netsplit is fixed, you get [[on join|join]] messages for everybody again.

This can cause a lot of scrolling.  This script eases the burden by 
tracking all netsplits and outputting **one** message per netsplit,
and **one** message per netjoin.

The facility of this script is included, somehow, in every script pack
ever distributed in ircII-dom.

======History:======
This script first appeared in ircII.
