4 Since sic uses stdin and stdout as its user interfaces, it is easy to combine
5 it with other tools if you need more features.

10 History
11 -------
12
13 If you want to store what is being said, you can use the tee(1) command with
14 sic:
15
16 $ sic | tee -a sic_history

19 Highlighting
20 ------------
21 If you want to receive an alert in case someone mention your username, you can
22 use awk(1):
23
24 $ sic | awk '/username/ {printf "\a"}1'
25
26 Using a tool like awk(1) would allow you to be highlighted on specific channels
27 for example. You can of course combine it with the tee(1) command above:
28
29 $ sic | tee -a sic_history | awk '/username/ {printf "\a"}1'
