Description

Please include support for the timestamps sent by znc (advances bouncer), when it sends messages from the buffer to the client.
Support meaning, that Smuxi automaticly replaces its own timestamp with the one in the message.
One such message looks like this:
21:22 <dcbw> [17:47:07] brb

History

And which date is it? This would only really work if ZNC could send the full timestamp some how (not part of the actual message). How could Smuxi tell the difference between text in the message and a "timestamp"?

ZNC supports two modes. Either prepending or appending the timestamp.
When prepending, the original timestamp is the first one in the message, when appending, the original timestamp is the last one.
Messages from the buffer are messages received by the znc when no client was connected, so you only have to replace timestamps for the lines before the message "<***> Playback Complete."
Buffer playback starts with the user * sending "Buffer Playback..." and the ends with the user * sending "Playback Complete." This happens on every channel the znc is connected to.

Looks like ZNC supports IRCv3 which can sent timestamps as part of the IRC protocol, see:
http://ircv3.org/extensions/server-time-3.2

The IRC parser/lib will probably need changes for this to work.
