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: 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..).
