Posting a message in weechat starting with a slash

Question

In irssi, if someone was asking how do I register my nickname?, I could respond with / /msg nickserv help register (and have the first /<space> be stripped from the message sent.

In weechat, this syntax doesn't work - is there a way to send out a message that starts with a slash?

Turns out you can do /say /msg nickserv help register, and it would do the right thing. say is, by default, aliased to /msg *.
