When I first set up irssi, I can easily join a channel, but I'm used to seeing popups when people ping me privately.
In default irssi it appears there is no way of knowing if someone sent you a private message - is there a way to automatically popup unknown private messages in irssi?
I am wondering if there is a way to hide the 'blalbal has joins the #channel' messages for people joining and leaving. There are so many of them. I am using the IRC client Xchat.
I've installed ircd-hybrid server on Ubuntu, configured it, and it's up and running.
I've configured my operator{} section in /etc/ircd-hybrid/ircd.conf, setting my name, user, and password. But I can't for the life of me grab /oper status on my server. Can someone please help me with very specific instructions that are working well for them? Thanks!
Is there a web front-end for http://irclogs.ubuntu.com that allows me to search through all the IRC chat logs?
I tried to google for site:irclogs.ubuntu.com +search-term but that doesn't seem to work reliably.
I'm not looking for a solution that fetches any of those files. :-)
I use XChat for IRC. Some of the automatic channels I want to join require that I be identified with services. I have set xchat to autologin with nickserv when i start up, but sometimes there is a delay, it will try to join certain channels (and fail), before I am authenticated. Is there some way to tell xchat to delay trying to join some channels until after I am authenticated?
