# Hallo irc - irssi and dotfiles | |
## Z-Shell | |
Switched shell again, from bash to zsh. | |
Installed ohmyzshell and changed `~/.zshrc` | |
- export EDITOR=vim | |
- alias vi=vim | |
...enough for now | |
## ~/.irssi/config | |
I use irssi which a run with screen. | |
The following snippets added to specific sections work for me. | |
### Preparations | |
You will need to register a *nickname*. | |
Your ~username will be used as default, | |
you might set a nick before. | |
Do this via: | |
`/msg NickServ REGISTER YourPassword [email protected]` | |
You will receive an email with a confirmation code, | |
finalise the registration via: | |
`/msg NickServ CONFIRM codeFromMail` | |
Below | |
### tilde server | |
Added **tilde** to server section: | |
``` | |
{ | |
chatnet = "tilde"; | |
type = "IRC"; | |
nick = "fl3a"; | |
password = "nickPasswd"; | |
address = "irc.tilde.chat"; | |
port = "6697"; | |
use_ssl = "yes"; | |
ssl_verify = "yes"; | |
autoconnect = "yes"; | |
}, | |
``` | |
### channels | |
Added these channels to **channel** section: | |
``` | |
{ name = "#pink"; chatnet = "tilde"; autojoin = "yes"; } | |
{ name = "#envs"; chatnet = "tilde"; autojoin = "yes"; } | |
{ name = "#envs_german"; chatnet = "tilde"; autojoin = "yes"; } | |
``` | |
- #pink for my tilde | |
- #envs to meet cblte :D | |
- #envs_german for native tongue chit-chat | |
Ping me (fl3a), when you are around! | |
## Throwback time | |
I feel thrown back for about 20 years, where irc was a common way of | |
communication for me. | |
After a successful irc connection, i joined some channels of my past. | |
One moved to telegram, one completely disappeared. | |
Another one, \#linux.de on freenode, which i remembered as very busybecame | |
seems more quiet like back in these days. | |
But i remember some nicks, they are still there :D | |
Nice the meet some new people like cblte, | |
and to see that some things resist while other disappear... | |
## todos | |
- try byobu terminal multiplexer (thx ben for the tip) | |
