DESCRIPTION

A Role::Tiny role that provides convenient helper methods for classes that track IRC casemapping, such as IRC client libraries.

This role requires a casemap attribute that returns one of 'rfc1459', 'ascii', or 'strict-rfc1459' -- see IRC::Toolkit::Case for details on IRC casemap issues.

lower

Returns the IRC-lowercased string.

upper

Returns the IRC-uppercased string.

equal

Expects two strings; returns true if they are equal per the current casemap rules. Returns empty list if the strings do not match.
