HexChat
Connecting[edit]
- Open the network list (ctrl+s or HexChat > Network List)
- Hit Add and name the network
- Hit Edit
- Add the server's address (with the format of hostname/port) by clicking on the server list and hit enter to save.
- You can check the autoconnect option here if you prefer.
- Check "Use SSL..." and "Accept invalid SSL" if you are using that (it's invalid because it is self-signed)
- Uncheck "Use global user information" and fill in the username with username/network
- Enter your password...
- For 2.9.6+ you must have "Server Password" for login method.
- Pre 2.9.6 just input into the Server Password field.
- Hit Close to save your changes and then test it.
Example:
You will still need to specify Nick, Alt nick, and Real name.
Troubleshooting[edit]
If it does not connect ensure you have the correct port set.
If no port is set HexChat defaults to 6667 for non-ssl and 6697 for ssl.
The format in the network list for ports is address/port
This is a failed attempt due to not specifying the correct port.
Connecting to my.bouncer.net (6697) Connected. Now logging in... Disconnected (Connection reset by peer)
Playback formatting[edit]
Timestamps[edit]
HexChat 2.9.6+ Supports the znc.in/server-time[-iso] capability, this means that all the timestamps will be the correct ones given by the server.
Scripts[edit]
Some events printed by the playback still won't look quite correct, to help this some scripts have been written to do extra formatting.
Scripts for 2.12.1+ (Lua, Recommended)
Scripts for 2.9.6+ (Python)
