Re: BitchX irc server list
the way i do it is i create a file $HOME/.ircservers and list all my
fav irc servers there. then, when i invoke bitchx i use
$ bitchx -r $HOME/.ircservers
and it starts wif my own list of default servers. note: this only needs to be
done once. invoking bitchx after this 1st time will continue to use the
list of irc servers even if you don't specify -r $HOME/.ircservers
hope that helps!

I'm struggling to get BitchX to recognise my server list. I've put an
ircII.servers file in /etc/irc/, copied it to just /etc/irc/servers/,
and even /usr/lib/bitchx/. I still can't get it to use my [shorter]
list of servers.
The only way so far I've managed to do it is by downloading the source
package and compiling it straight in, but I don't want to do that. The
source says:
/*
* Set your favorite default server list here. This list should be a
* whitespace separated hostname:portnum:password list (with portnums and
* passwords optional). This IS NOT an optional definition. Please set this
* to your nearest servers. However if you use a seperate 'ircII.servers'
* file and the ircII can find it, this setting is overridden.
*/
Where can I put the ircII.servers file so that `ircII can find it'?
