+---
+
+If you want to run irc on your tilde account, you can use weechat
+which is installed and requires minimal configuration.
+
+## First connection
+
+Start weechat on your linux shell and type the following commands:
+
+    /server add tilde localhost/6697
+    /connect tilde
+
+This will connect you to the irc network via the local machine using a
+regular connection (which is secure enough since it stays on the local
+machine). The username used is the same as your linux account, this is
+should be unique, if it is not you will be called username1 or
+similar, then you should chose another nickname. You do that by using
+the /nick command
+
+    /nick username
+
+## Register
+
+You now can register your username using your tilde email address as
+described here: (nicks)
+
+After you have done that, you can set the username and password in the
+weechat settings to automatically log in and authenticate
+
+    /set irc.server.tilde.sasl_username <username>
+    /set irc.server.tilde.sasl_password <password>
+
+Now disconnect and connect again to get your registered nickname
+
+    /quit
+run weechat again
+    /connect tilde
+
+Now you can join any channel, e.g. #helpdesk
