+======Synopsis:======
+__whowas__ <nickname> [<count>] [<server>]
+======Description:======
+This command is similar to [[WHOIS]] except it asks the server for
+information about a user who has left irc recently.  It shows most of
+the same information as [[WHOIS]].
+The number of entries returned by the server is controlled by the value of
+[[SET NUM_OF_WHOWAS]].  You can override this value by providing a second
+argument which shall be the number of entries you want returned.
+You can query a remote server for a WHOWAS reply with /[[quote]] whowas <nick>
+<count> <server>
+The exact determination of what is "recently" enough to be returned by
+WHOWAS is a server option and may be anywhere from several seconds to
+several weeks.
+======Examples:======
+To show the last 5 users of the nickname JoeBob:
