Hey all,
I'm on my brand new Powerbook and I am an avid IRC user. I have a problem though. I don't know which one is best for me.
I use a lot of aliases, like /kban - but I also have an alias that joins 7 rooms (three password protected) by typing /all. And a password alias and lots of other things on mIRC - PC Version.
I am an op in a room that is for this fan site I administrate and I *do* like to be there but so far Xchat, Snak, Ircle, and Colloquy haven't met my standards (I guess that's how I'd say it). Maybe I'm missing something but I just got overwhelmed by the.. difference in the programs.
Please help me - I want an IRC program that is easy to run, has a nice setup so I can view and add channel bans, a customizable area for aliases, and that's it.. don't care much about extra fance visual stuff (as you know, mIRC may not be the best looking program).
Please help me.
EDIT - ALSO:
I've decided to go with Xchat.
Hey all,
For all those who use Xchat, I have a few questions.
how do I set it so channel modes AND /me & /action messages appear in different colors than black? They currently get jammed in there. Same with quit messages.
Basically, I want it to look like mIRC does in its default form.
Also, on the User Menu, I want to add a "Join All" option for backup - I'd like to join seven channels. Is this possible? if so, three are password-protected/key'ed so I need to know how to "arrange it."
Example: Name - Join all
command - join #test; join #testtwo passwordgoeshere; join #testthree password
Like that?
I think that's all the questions for now..
