The Purple Plugin Pack was originally created by
Gary Kramelich and Stu Tomlinson as a way to distribute
their ever growing lists of simple Pidgin plugins.
+
+This includes an optional patch to change the default nickserv identify command
+in the irchelp plugin to:
+
+/msg nickserv identify <password>
+
+rather than the '/identify <password>' command that it defaults to, which fails
+on some IRCd's such as e.g. ngircd (also available on slackbuilds.org).
