Q: What is a hostmask? A: It is what you set under 'User Details' for each contact. Carefully used they will make the plugin recognize your pals easier. Q: What wildcards are allowed in the hostmask? A: '*' (replace anything with any length) and '?' (replace anything with the length of one character). Q: I have ignored a user, why can I still see his messages? A: IRC's ignore system works only for users not on your contact list (as opposed to Mirandas built in which works only for people on your contact list basically). This means you must delete him from your contact list after you added him to the ignore list to not receive any queries from him. By default channel messages are not ignored as that can create some weird conversations that is hard to follow. There is however an option to ignore channel messages by default in Options / Network / IRC Ignore (v 0.6+) Q: I don't receive any queries (private messages)... why? A: You have probably enabled the option to ignore messages from unknown contacts in Options / Events / Ignore. This naturally affects IRC too. Consider allowing file transfers from unknown too if you need it. Q: How do I automatically join a channel when I connect to a network? A: You can enter commands that you want performed on connection in Options->Network->IRC Advanced / Perform. Choose the correct network in the drop down list and add you commands in the box below it. For instance: to join #miranda automatically when connected to the Freenode network you choose "Freenode" in the drop down box, then enter "/join #miranda" in the edit box below the drop down box. Remeber to push the green "plus" icon to save it. Q: What is 'multiserver through DLL renaming'? A: It is a 'hack' you can use to allow more than one irc connection in Miranda IM. If you copy the original IRC.dll and rename the copy from IRC.dll to IRCX.dll (for instance) then you can load both copies and get two connections simultaneously (from module IRC and IRCX in this case). If you want to use the same servers and perform commands, make sure you also rename those files accordingly, i e IRC_servers.ini -> IRCX_servers.ini Q: Why do Q Notices appear in the wrong window? A: Q Notices (like most other) are never sent to the channel; instead they are sent to you. Therefore Notices will be displayed in the active window. There is nothing wrong Q: I found a bug, where do I post about it? A: The bug tracker Q: Where can I discuss the IRC protocol, scripting and similar? A: The forums Q: How can I contact you? A: Look in the 'about' section of this website. The mail address I state there is somewhat falsified to make it harder for mail address harvesters to pick up my address. I'm sure you as a human being can get it though. |
