     13 OPTIMIZE YOUR TERMINAL FOR COLOR CODES ON OSX
     14 =============================================
     15 
     16 You can use terminal, some nerds seem to prefer iterm2, but it's up to you
     17 ... http://iterm2.com/
     18 
     19 To see color codes correctly, make sure your term type is xterm-256color --
     20 
     21 If you use iterm:    https://s3.amazonaws.com/luckyplop/a1b0f0e3d6eae746c82194876f2ccd8b200bc3bb.png
     22 If you use terminal: https://s3.amazonaws.com/luckyplop/6a2270b58ea1cfac587607215e1b829f41d47355.png
     23 
     24 Restart iterm after changing this setting.
     25 
     26 The default iterm colors are kind of ugly for color codes, so you may want to change them
     27 to something like this..
     28 
     29 https://s3.amazonaws.com/luckyplop/c5f3a1f2b8e2f8a745fa2638c21af7d26117b91b.png
     30 
     31 You can download this iTerm color preset here:

     36 INSTALLING IRSSI ON OSX
     37 =======================
     38 
     39 For me the easiest thing is to install homebrew >> http://brew.sh/
     40 
     41 Follow les instructions and then..
     42 
     43 brew install irssi
     44 
     45 Then you run irssi from a terminal by typing the magic word..
     46 
     47 irssi
     48 
     49 
     50 SETTING UP IRSSI FOR COLOR CODES
     51 ================================
     52 
     53 Use these commands for proper unicode support --
     54 
     55 /set term_charset utf-8
     56 /set recode_autodetect_utf8 ON
     57 /set recode_fallback ISO-8859-15
     58 /set recode ON
     59 
     60 Use these commands to dump color codes quickly and efficiently --
     61 
     62 /set cmd_queue_speed 0msec
     63 /set cmds_max_at_once 1
     64 /set flood_max_msgs 0
     65 /set flood_timecheck 0
     66 
     67 To make your log go back very far --
     68 
     69 /set scrollback_lines 20000
     70 /set scrollback_time 10day
     71 
     72 Remember to type /save after doing a /set to save your changes!
     73 
     74 /save
     75 
     76 Your irssi configuration will be stored in your home directory in..
     77 
     78 .irssi/config
     79 
     80 
     81 NORMAL IRSSI OPERATION
     82 ======================
     83 
     84 If you do not want to do the autojoin thing these are the commands you'd normally use to connect:
     85 
     86 /server -ssl irc.asdf.us 7777
     87 /join #ascii
     88 
     89 
     90 SETTING UP IRSSI TO AUTOJOIN #ASCII
     91 ===================================
     92 
     93 First run irssi, then paste in these commands.
     94 Please change YOUR_NICK_HERE to your preferred username!
     95 
     96 /network add -nick YOUR_NICK_HERE -user YOUR_NICK_HERE -realname "YOUR NAME HERE" asdf
     97 /server add -network asdf -auto -ssl irc.asdf.us 7777
     98 /channel add -auto #ascii asdf
     99 /save
    100 /quit
    101 
    102 Now run irssi again.. it should autoconnect to the channels and stuff.
    103 If you want it to move you into #ascii by default, you can do ctrl-N and then
    104 
    105 /layout save
    106 /save
    107 
    108 
    109 IRC TIPS
    110 ========
    111 
    112 /join #ascii       -- join a channel :)
    113 /part #ascii       -- leave a channel ;(
    114 /quit blabla       -- quit irc (with the quit message 'blabla')
    115 /list              -- list channels
    116 /nick booboo       -- change your nick to booboo
    117 /who #ascii        -- show complete list of people on #ascii
    118 /names             -- show quick list of names
    119 /msg nick blabla   -- send someone a private message ;)
    120 
    121 
    122 IRSSI TIPS
    123 ==========
    124 
    125 Ctrl-N          -- move to next window
    126 Ctrl-P          -- move to previous window
    127 /window close   -- close a window
    128 Fn-up arrow     -- page up (if you don't have a pageup key)
    129 Fn-down arrow   -- page down (if you don't have a pagedown key)

    132 IRSSI SCRIPTING
    133 ===============
    134 
    135 This is its own can of worms.  May we suggest:
    136 
    137 http://scripts.irssi.org/scripts/noticelogic.pl
    138 http://scripts.irssi.org/scripts/nickcolor.pl
    139 
    140 To make it run on startup, copy it into ~/.irssi/scripts/autorun/  (and restart irssi)
    141 
    142 Another fun IRC thing is running an XDCC server for sharing files..
    143 -- for more info see http://asdf.us/xdcc/
    144 
    145 
    146 AND REMEMBER...
    147 ===============
    148 
    149 Have fun and be safe online!
