   ~ le irssi faq pour le amelioration des color codes sur l'irc plu parfait! ~


OPTIMIZE YOUR TERMINAL FOR COLOR CODES ON OSX
=============================================

You can use terminal, some nerds seem to prefer iterm2, but it's up to you
... http://iterm2.com/

To see color codes correctly, make sure your term type is xterm-256color --

If you use iterm:    https://s3.amazonaws.com/luckyplop/a1b0f0e3d6eae746c82194876f2ccd8b200bc3bb.png
If you use terminal: https://s3.amazonaws.com/luckyplop/6a2270b58ea1cfac587607215e1b829f41d47355.png

Restart iterm after changing this setting.

The default iterm colors are kind of ugly for color codes, so you may want to change them
to something like this..

INSTALLING IRSSI ON OSX
=======================

For me the easiest thing is to install homebrew >> http://brew.sh/

Follow les instructions and then..

brew install irssi

Then you run irssi from a terminal by typing the magic word..

irssi


SETTING UP IRSSI FOR COLOR CODES
================================

Use these commands for proper unicode support --

/set term_charset utf-8
/set recode_autodetect_utf8 ON
/set recode_fallback ISO-8859-15
/set recode ON

Use these commands to dump color codes quickly and efficiently --

/set cmd_queue_speed 0msec
/set cmds_max_at_once 1
/set flood_max_msgs 0
/set flood_timecheck 0

To make your log go back very far --

/set scrollback_lines 20000
/set scrollback_time 10day

Remember to type /save after doing a /set to save your changes!

/save

Your irssi configuration will be stored in your home directory in..

.irssi/config


NORMAL IRSSI OPERATION
======================

If you do not want to do the autojoin thing these are the commands you'd normally use to connect:

/server -ssl irc.jollo.org 9999
/join #sally


SETTING UP IRSSI TO AUTOJOIN #SALLY
===================================

First run irssi, then paste in these commands (changing yournick to your preferred nickname, etc)

/network add -nick yournick -user yournick -realname "your name" Jollo
/server add -network Jollo -auto -ssl irc.jollo.org 9999
/channel add -auto #sally Jollo
/save
/quit

Now run irssi again.. it should autoconnect to the channels and stuff.
If you want it to move you into sally by default, you can do ctrl-N and then

/layout save
/save


IRC TIPS
========

/join #sally       -- join a channel :)
/part #sally       -- leave a channel ;(
/quit blabla       -- quit irc (with the quit message 'blabla')
/list              -- list channels
/nick booboo       -- change your nick to booboo
/who #sally        -- show complete list of people on #sally
/names             -- show quick list of names
/msg nick blabla   -- send someone a private message ;)


IRSSI TIPS
==========

Ctrl-N          -- move to next window
Ctrl-P          -- move to previous window
/window close   -- close a window
Fn-up arrow     -- page up (if you don't have a pageup key)
Fn-down arrow   -- page down (if you don't have a pagedown key)


PLINKO TIPS
===========

Le Jollo IRC is home to a fine bot named PLINKO who you should make friends with :o)

To get started, type:   /query plinko register

Plinko lives in #sally and also #pffffffff where you can ask him to draw things.

He prefers an uncluttered canvas, so in irssi you might want to do:

/ignore -channels #pffffffff * JOINS PARTS QUITS NICKS


IRSSI SCRIPTING
===============

This is its own can of worms.. One script which is necessary for playing les parlour games
on Jollo (chess, literati) is "noticelogic.pl"

http://scripts.irssi.org/scripts/noticelogic.pl

To make it run on startup, copy it into ~/.irssi/scripts/autorun/  (and restart irssi)

Another fun IRC thing is running an XDCC server for sharing files..
There may be someone running an XDCC server on Jollo, but you can run your own
-- for more info see http://asdf.us/xdcc/


AND REMEMBER...
===============

Have fun and be safe online!
