+======Synopsis:======
+[[load]] newnick \\
+[[set]] auto_new_nick ON|OFF|TOGGLE \\
+[[set]] auto_new_nick_char <character> \\
+[[set]] auto_new_nick_list <string> \\
+[[set]] auto_new_nick_length <number> \\
+======Description:======
+This script implements the nickname fudging facility that previously was
+built in to the client.
+Whenever the client requires of you a new nickname, if set auto_new_nick
+is OFF, then you will be prompted for a new nickname.  If it is ON, then
+the next nickname in set auto_new_nick_list will be selected.  If that list
+is empty or all of the nicknames have been exhausted, then the nickname is
+mangled by adding the single character of set auto_new_nick_char.  Once
+that nickname reaches set auto_new_nick_length characters, it is rotated,
+by moving the final character in the nick to the start.
+Eventually, the script will find a nickname that isn't in use, without
+requiring any manual intervention.
+======History:======
+The auto-new-nick feature first appeared in epic2pre3.
+This script was written by blackjac and first appeared in epic5-0.0.6.
