====== IRC Channel Auto-Connection with Irssi ======

This tutorial explains how to configure the [[http://irssi.org/|Irssi ("the client of the future")]] IRC client to automatically connect to one or more channels when run.

  - Invoke Irssi from the shell: <code>
$ irssi
</code>
  - After Irssi starts, enter the following commands: <code>
/network add sdf
/server add -auto -network sdf irc.sdf.org
/channel add -auto #sdf sdf
</code>
    - (You may add other //channels((See [[irc_channels_on_sdf|IRC Channels on SDF]].))//. Channel ''#helpdesk'' is added automatically.)
  - Quit Irssi: <code>
/quit
</code>
  - Invoke Irssi again: <code>
$ irssi
</code>
    - (Irssi runs and automatically connects to the channels you defined in **2**.)
  - Select the channel you want to see first when Irssi starts by cycling through the channel windows (''Ctrl-n'', ''Ctrl-p'').
  - Save the Irssi channel window configuration: <code>
/layout save
</code>
  * If you experience trouble, it may help to reset your Irssi configuration by deleting or renaming the file ''~/.irssi/config''.
