|
|
<p>so you decided to switch from irssi to weechat?</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>what options do you need to set? what plugins? what scripts?</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>i'll go over some of the most essential of these, and share my full configs.</p>
|
|
|
|
<hr />
|
|
|
|
<h3>options</h3>
|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li><code>logger.level.irc</code> the default is 9, which includes joins and parts. in most cases you can set this to 3, which only includes messages</li>
|
|
<li><code>weechat.look.buffer_notify.default</code> the default here is "all", which will add joins and parts to your hotlist. set it to "message".</li>
|
|
<li><code>weechat.look.confirm_quit</code> set this to on. you'll thank me when you type <code>/quit</code> and mean <code>/close</code></li>
|
|
<li><code>weechat.look.highlight</code> add a comma-separated list of names/terms you'd like to trigger a highlight here</li>
|
|
<li><code>weechat.look.prefix_align_max</code> set this to something between 10 and 20. otherwise, long nicks will crush your available screen real estate.</li>
|
|
<li><code>buflist.format.indent</code> try something like <code>${color:237}${if:${buffer.next_buffer.local_variables.type}=~^(channel|private)$?├:└}</code></li>
|
|
<li><code>buflist.format.number</code> if you want to skip the . or space after the number, set it to <code>${color:green}${number}</code></li>
|
|
<li><code>irc.look.color_nicks_in_names</code> set this to on</li>
|
|
<li><code>irc.look.color_nicks_in_nicklist</code> set this to on</li>
|
|
<li><code>irc.look.server_buffer</code> set this to independent to prevent automatic merges with the core weechat buffer. especially useful if you plan on using <a href="https://weechat.org/scripts/source/autosort.py.html/">autosort.py</a></li>
|
|
<li><code>irc.server_default.autoconnect</code> set this to on so you don't have to set it for every new network you add.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
|
|
<h3>scripts</h3>
|
|
|
|
<p>these scripts can be managed with the built in <code>/script</code> tool. press i, then enter on the selected script to install it.</p>
|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li><a href="https://weechat.org/scripts/source/highmon.pl.html/">highmon.pl</a> - set aside a buffer to list the places your nick has been mentioned</li>
|
|
<li><a href="https://weechat.org/scripts/source/colorize_nicks.py.html/">colorize_nicks.py</a> - show nicks in chat with colors</li>
|
|
<li><a href="https://weechat.org/scripts/source/go.py.html/">go.py</a> - fuzzy quick jump by buffer number of channel name</li>
|
|
<li><a href="https://weechat.org/scripts/source/autojoin.py.html/">autojoin.py</a> - use <code>/autojoin --run</code> to save all the channels you're currently in to be autojoined the next time you start weechat</li>
|
|
<li><a href="https://weechat.org/scripts/source/autosort.py.html/">autosort.py</a> - use this script in tandem with irc.look.server_buffer=independent to keep you channel and server list in order</li>
|
|
<li><a href="https://weechat.org/scripts/source/colorize_lines.pl.html/">colorize_lines.pl</a> - i use this script to highlight the entire line of messages i've been mentioned in. check the options in the source or with <code>/help colorize_lines</code></li>
|
|
<li><a href="https://weechat.org/scripts/source/grep.py.html/">grep.py</a> - quickly search history and buffers with <code>/grep</code></li>
|
|
</ul>
