command¶

 my $command = $req->command;

The command, usually something like "USER", "PASS", "HELP", etc.

args¶

 my $args = $res->args;

The arguments passed in with the command

raw¶

 my $raw = $res->raw;

The raw, unparsed request.

as_string¶

 my $str = $res->as_string
 my $str = "$res";

Returns a string representation of the request. This may not be exactly the same as what was actually sent to the server (see "raw" attribute for that). You can also call this by treating the object like a string (using string operators, or including it in a double quoted string), so

 print "$req";

is the same as

 print $req->as_string;
