ping everyone in the channel

[Justin Obara]

I've had a few times over the last few weeks where it would have been great to be able to ping everyone in the channel at once. There is no method that I know of to do this in IRC. Please let me know if there is. Right now, most of us listen for keywords, usually our nick. Would people mind listening for another keyword (e.g. fluid-everyone) to be used to ping everyone? The one draw back is that we won't get the type assistance and will have to remember it. 

Any thoughts?

Thanks
Justin
