+/*******************************************************
* This file contains classes and templates that deal
* with the comparison and hashing of 'irc strings'.
* An 'irc string' is a string which compares in a
* case insensitive manner, and as per RFC 1459 will
* treat [ identical to {, ] identical to }, and \
- * as identical to |. Our hashing functions are designed
- * to accept std::string and compare/hash them in an irc
- * type way, irc::string is a seperate class type currently.

+ * as identical to |.
+ *
+ * Our hashing functions are designed to accept
+ * std::string and compare/hash them as type irc::string
+ * by converting them internally. This makes them
+ * backwards compatible with other code which is not
+ * aware of irc::string.
