Synopsis:
   say <text>

Description:
   This command sends a message to the current window's current channel.
   This is useful when you want to send a message to the current channel 
   of a window that has a QUERY active.

   This is the command that you would use an a BIND, ALIAS, ON, or other
   commands to send a message to the current channel.

   The SEND command sends a message to the current target, which may
   be different than the current channel!

   SAY can only send a message to the current channel of a window.  To
   send a message to a non-current channel, either use the MSG command,
   or use the SWITCH_CHANNELS key binding to make the desired channel 
   the current channel.

Examples:
   To send a message to the current channel:
      /say hello all!

   To someone else on irc, your message may appear like this:
      <your_nick> hello all!

   To you, your message may appear like this:
      > hello all!
