- Search in specific fields. The following search matches all objects in "twisted.mail" that matches “search”: `+qname:twisted.mail.* +search`

  Possible fields: 'name', 'qname' (fully qualified name), 'docstring', and 'kind'. Last two fields are only applicable if "search in docstrings" is enabled.

def connectionMade(self): (source)
from `twisted.internet.interfaces.IProtocol`
overrides `twisted.internet.protocol.BaseProtocol.connectionMade`

Called when a connection is made.

This may be considered the initializer of the protocol, because it is called when the connection is completed. For clients, this is called once the connection to the server has been established; for servers, this is called after an accept() call stops blocking and a socket has been received. If you need to send any greeting or initial message, do it here.

def getQuote(self): (source)

Return a quote. May be overrriden in subclasses.
