This program is an Irc client which works in a terminal. Or a screen for that matter. This is really convenient if you want to communicatie anywhere in the world where you have access to you own server.

The following command I use to start the client:

#!/bin/sh
screen -S irc irssi -c ede.nl.eu.undernet.org

The following is adjusted in the config file:

servers = (
{ address = "im.bitlbee.org"; chatnet = "MSN"; port = "6667";
use_ssl = "no"; autoconnect = "yes"; },
{ address = "irc.undernet.org"; chatnet = "Undernet"; port = "6667";
use_ssl = "no"; autoconnect = "no"; },
{ address = "ede.nl.eu.undernet.org"; chatnet = "Undernet"; port = "6667";
use_ssl = "no"; autoconnect = "yes"; }

chatnets = {
MSN = {
type = "IRC";
autosendcmd = "/^msg nickserv identify <password>";
};
Undernet = {
type = "IRC";
max_kicks = "4";
max_modes = "3";
max_msgs = "3";
max_whois = "30";
};
};

channels = (
#  { name = "#bitlbee"; chatnet = "MSN"; autojoin = "Yes"; },
{ name = "#clue"; chatnet = "Undernet"; autojoin = "Yes"; },
#  { name = "#juniper"; chatnet = "Undernet"; autojoin = "Yes"; },
{ name = "#fifo"; chatnet = "Undernet"; autojoin = "Yes"; }
);

# I put this one within "aliases"
MSN = "connect MSN";

settings = {
core = {
real_name = "<real name>";
user_name = "<username>";
nick = "<Nickname>";
};
};

Handy commands:

/win move <number> # This way you can move the current window to another location.
