=head1 NAME

POE::Filter::IRC -- A POE-based parser for the IRC protocol

=head1 SYNOPSIS

 my $filter = POE::Filter::IRC->new();
 my @events = @{ $filter->get( [ @lines ] ) };

=head1 DESCRIPTION

POE::Filter::IRC takes lines of raw IRC input and turns them into weird little
data structures, suitable for feeding to L<POE::Component::IRC|POE::Component::IRC>.
They look like this:

 { name => 'event name', args => [ some info about the event ] }

This module was long deprecated in L<POE::Component::IRC|POE::Component::IRC>.
It now uses the same mechanism that that uses to parse IRC text.

=head1 CONSTRUCTOR

=head2 C<new>

Returns a new L<POE::Filter::Stackable|POE::Filter::Stackable> object containing
a L<POE::Filter::IRCD|POE::Filter::IRCD> object and a
L<POE::Filter::IRC::Compat|POE::Filter::IRC::Compat> object. This does the same
job that POE::Filter::IRC used to do.

=head1 METHODS

See the documentation for POE::Filter::IRCD and POE::Filter::IRC::Compat.
