Q: Why doesn't irssi display colors even when ircii etc. displays them?
A: Irssi uses curses, ircii and others don't (no, not even if ldd says they
use it). Curses decides if terminal supports colors based on the TERM
variable, so changing it should help. Some values to try when running
in xterm are: xterm, xterm-color and color_xterm.
Q: Why does irssi crash when pressing Ctrl-4?
A: Most unices are usually configured to send SIGQUIT to active process when
Ctrl-\ is pressed. Some terminals also treat Ctrl-4 and Ctrl-\ equally, so
Irssi will die to SIGQUIT. Two ways to fix this: change it to something
else with stty (stty quit undef) or in irssi /SET ignore_signals quit
Q: Where's the GUI version?

A: They force ANSI colors even if terminal doesn't support them. 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
@ -25,12 +17,23 @@ A: Two ways. The "good way" to do it is with /DISCONNECT. Check the server
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: IRC server you use is coded badly, do something like this:
/IRCNET ADD -querychans 1 quakenet
/SERVER ADD -ircnet quakenet irc.quakenet.org
/SAVE
After that /CONNECT quakenet should work properly (NOTE: when you do this
the first time you'll have to /DISCONNECT and /CONNECT again, /SERVER
doesn't work correctly).
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.
