By default, - irssi uses colors only if terminfo/termcap so says. The correct way to - fix this would be to change your TERM environment to a value where colors - work, like xterm-color or color_xterm. If this doesn't help, then use the - evil way of /SET term_force_colors ON. - -Q: How do I easily write text to channel that starts with '/' character? -A: / /text - -Q: Why doesn't irssi update my realname (or whatever) after I change it - with /SET realname and reconnect with /RECONNECT or /SERVER? -A: Irssi is trying to be too smart. This will be fixed in future, but for - now you should use /DISCONNECT + /CONNECT. - -Q: I connected to some server which isn't responding but now irssi tries - to connect back to it all the time! How can I stop it? -A: Two ways. The "good way" to do it is with /DISCONNECT. Check the server - tags first with /SERVER without giving it any parameters, reconnections - are those that have tag starting with "recon" text. So most probably you're - going to do /DISCONNECT recon-1. The other way is to remove all the - reconnections with /RMRECONNS, easier but may remove some connections - you actually wanted to reconnect (if you used multiple servers..). - -Q: How do I add seconds to timestamp? -A: "/FORMAT timestamp {timestamp %%H:%%M:%%S} " - and remember to add the - trailing space :) - -Q: Why does irssi say "Irssi: Channel not fully synchronized yet, try again - after a while" when I try to use /BAN etc? -A: Possibly a bug in irssi, or ircd you're using does something that irssi - didn't really notice. The new code should make this happen far less often - than before, but one known reason for this is when irssi doesn't notice - that you were unable to join some channel. Currently however I don't know - of any such events irssi doesn't know about. - - Anyway, if this does happen, do "/RAWLOG SAVE ~/rawlog" soon after joining - to channel, and either try to figure out yourself why irssi didn't get - reply to WHO request, or send the whole log to tss@iki.fi. Note that the - rawlog is by default only 200 lines and it may not be enough to show all - needed information, so you might want to do /SET rawlog_lines 1000 or so. - -Q: Where's the GUI version? -A: Read http://irssi.org/?page=about - -Q: How do I autorejoin channels after being kicked? -A: That's evil and you shouldn't do it. If you get kicked, you should - stay out, at least until the channel forgot you existed :) Most channels - I've joined just ban you if you autorejoin after kick. If you're joined - to channels who kick people for fun, try changing channels or something. - - Anyway, if you REALLY want to do that, and you understand that you're - doing evilness, you can use the autorejoin.pl script that comes with - irssi. You'll still need to specify the channels you wish to rejoin with - /SET autorejoin_channels #chan1 #chan2 ... - -Q: How do I announce that I'm away/back in all channels I've joined? - Or how do I change my nick when setting myself away/back? -A: That's even worse than autorejoin. Who could possibly care every time you - come and go? Many channels will kick you for using this, and I for example - have added several ignores so I'd never need to see these messages. Learn - to use /AWAY command properly and tell it's existence to people who don't - know about it. /WII yournick shows your away reason much better for people - who actually want to know if you're there or not. - - You can script these behaviours if you really wish to of course. But - currently there's no public scripts for either of these, and the only way - I'm going to add such to irssi.org is if the script contains a setting to - specify which specific channels the announcement is sent. - -Q: Why does irssi autojoin on invite by default? -A: The setting is /SET join_auto_chans_on_invite - it's not the same as - regular autojoin-on-invite, which irssi doesn't even have. The only - channels that are joined on invite, are the ones you've added to config - with /CHANNEL ADD -auto. This is very useful with +i channels when you - need to first send an invite request to bot, or if you get accidentally - kicked from channel, the kicker can invite you back immediately. - - I don't see any bad side effects with this feature, so it's ON by - default. I guess someone could start kicking/inviting you all the time - but server connection shouldn't drop because of that, and you shouldn't - join channels whose operators are that evil. |
