firefly

I have an irc bot that works so far, i want it to log everything in the channel and output it to a text file.
The only problem is that i am rubbish at string manipulation .

How would i turn this string
":firefly!firefly@somerandomhost.com PRIVMSG #test : Hello"

in to something like this?:
"<firefly>Hello"

Thanks in advance.
