Tips¶

Unicode¶

If you ever experience an issue with displaying unicode characters (which is not just an encoding issue), try type:

/setoptions Messages UseDrawText True

This will enable a different method for drawing messages.

To disable, type:

/setoptions Messages UseDrawText False

Auth before joining a channel¶

If you need to be authed with nickserv before joining a channel, you can use the /sleep (or /timer) command in your serverlist "Run these commands on connect" field:

/msg nickserv identify <password>
/sleep 3 /join #channel1,#channel2

/sleep 3, means wait 3 seconds before running the following command.
A dedicated field in the serverlist for this is planned as well as [[http://ircv3.net/specs/extensions/sasl-3.1.html|SASL]] support which makes this a non issue.
