.
Used to return information about <nicknames> that are no longer in use
(due to client disconnection, or nickname changes).
Query information about nicknames no longer in use in the network,
either because of nickname changes or disconnects. The history is
searched backwards, returning the most recent entry first. If there
are multiple entries, up to <count> entries will be shown (or all of
them, if no <count> has been given).
.
If given, the server will return information from the last <count> times
the nickname has been used.
If <server> is given, the command is forwarded to it for processing.
<target> can be a server name, the nickname of a client connected to a
specific server, or a mask matching a server name in the network. The
server of the current connecion is used when <target> is omitted.
