Description

I have recently sarted using IRC, and I have chosen WeeChat as my client. This is a quick start guide for using WeeChat:

  • Install WeeChat:
    sudo pacman -S weechat
    
  • Launch weechat:
    weechat
    
  • Set the default username:
    /set irc.server_default.nicks "JoeSchmoe" 
    
  • Show all of the IRC parameters:
    /set irc.*
    
  • Create a server connection profile called geekshed to irc.geekshed.net on port 6667:
    /server add geekshed irc.geekshed.net/6667
    
  • Connect to the geekshed profile
    /connect geekshed
    
  • Join a channel:
    /join #somerandomchannel
