savebuff
This module helps parsing actions which have happened on IRC. It is recommened to be used in combination with a client script or plugin, otherwise the output is pretty much useless or rather annoying. Feel free to make your own script and add it to the wiki. As always, contributions are much appreciated.

Known Issues
Savebuff blocks starting ZNC
What am I supposed to do if I can't start ZNC because the savebuff module fails to decrypt its saved messages?
The easiest way to fix this is to enter the correct password.
The second easiest way is to remove savebuff's saved messages:
rm ~/.znc/users/*/moddata/savebuff/.*
If you only want to remove the messages of some user, use this:
rm ~/.znc/users/<username>/moddata/savebuff/.*
To avoid this error in the future and if you don't have problems with saving the password in the ZNC config file, you can add your password there:
LoadModule = savebuff This is my secret pass
