Currently matterbridge automatically uses its IRC nickname to fill in the username/ident and real name/gecos fields at server registration time. While there's no problem with this, sometimes it's very convenient to set a custom ident and real name that's more apropos to a bot/bridge's purpose, e.g. to allow the person who controls it to provide some short contact information in the bot's /WHOIS info, or some other kind of additional identification.
This just adds
UserName
andRealName
config options for IRC to allow customizing those fields. They still default to the bridge's nickname if not specified.(I will admit I'm unsure if those are the best possible names -- they may be a bit too IRC-centric.)
