Downloading a File with a Registered Trademark Symbol?
reddit / irc

As someone who is fairly new to IRC, I'm absolutely not sure this
isn't a matter of user error - however, I am trying to download a file
that has the ® symbol in the name, and when I send the !USER command
that works in every other instance to request a download, the server
simply does nothing.  I've tried other clients on other machines with
no change whatsoever.

Short of requesting the user change the file name, is there anything
that I either might be doing wrong, or could do differently?  Thank
you very much for the assistance!

Put the name in quotes?

That didn't seem to help, unfortunately.

IRC doesn't have this system, you are talking about a robot that
someone connected to the IRC chat system. Ask the owner of the robot.
