Nick Colors Options¶

See also /cnick.

Use random nick colors¶

Enable or disable random nick colors.

Random nick colors does not work for your own nick, only remote nicks: You can create a nick color rule using $me to set your own nick color.

Use extended color list¶

If enabled, the random nick color will be a full $rgb value (instead of just color 0-15), and if the color is to close to the background color, it will be inverted.

Note: miRC colors 16-35 will be reserved for event colors in this case and not look the same as other clients. $color will also return different values.

Color based on hostname¶

If enabled, the random color will be based on the user hostname instead of nick, if no hostname is available, it will revert to nick. If hostname is found later, it will change the random color.

Method¶

Enable nickcolors for messages, Nicklist or both.
