<hr />
<div>Bitlbee tunnels instant messaging traffic (including MSN, ICQ, Yahoo, Jabber) to a virtual IRC channel and virtual IRC queries. What does that mean in english I hear you say. Basically it lets you connect to yahoo, msn or google talk through your redbrick chat.<br />
<br />
== Starting Bitlbee in irssi==<br />
<br />
To start bitlbee in irssi type<br />
/connect bitlbee<br />
<br />
This opens a new window, the bitlbee control window. You'll notice there seems to be another person in this channel called "root". This is the bitlbee system (we'll tell you how to rename it later).<br />
<br />
== Starting Bitlbee in weechat==<br />
<br />
To add your bitlbee server to weechat just type in the weechat window<br />
/server add bitlbee zeus.redbrick.dcu.ie/8854<br />
<br />
Before you connect you must have your nick set up so:<br />
/set irc.server.bitlbee.nicks "your nick"<br />
<br />
Then to connect simply type<br />
/connect bitlbee<br />
<br />
== Adding accounts ==<br />
This section tells you how to add accounts to the system.<br />
<br />
====MSN====<br />
account add msn <msn address> <password><br />
<br />
====Yahoo====<br />
account add yahoo username@yahoo.com <password><br />
<br />
====Google Talk====<br />
account add jabber username@gmail.com<br />
account gtalk set oauth on ['''Follow on-screen commands to authenticate using OAuth''']<br />
account gtalk on<br />
<br />
====Facebook====<br />
account add facebook <email> <password><br />
<br />
==Signing In==<br />
Once you've set up your accounts turn them on by typing<br />
account facebook on<br />
<br />
If you have multiple accounts set up you can turn them on one by one by specifing the number (accounts are numbered from 0 in the order you set them up)<br />
account list<br />
will tell you the numbers associated with each of your accounts. To turn on account one type<br />
account on 1<br />
<br />
Similarly you can sign out by typing<br />
account off<br />
account off 1<br />
<br />
<br />
=== Seeing who else is signed in ===<br />
<br />
You've probably noticed by now that you've been joined in this channel by your buddies. Using the /names command as usual will tell you who is signed in, but you'll see much more information by typing<br />
blist<br />
<br />
In the case of Facebook, you will have a list of user IDs rather than names. You can rename them manually, or get a renaming script for them:<br />
<br />
Weechat: http://www.weechat.org/scripts/source/stable/facebook_rename.py.html/<br />
<br />
Irssi: http://github.com/avar/irssi-bitlbee-facebook-rename<br />
<br />
== Sending a message ==<br />
<br />
You can use bitlbee in two ways - either talk directly to your buddies in the bitlbee window, or open pms with them by typing /msg as you would to normally open a PM. you'll notice that irssi is somethimes including the server in the /msg command as you use the tab complete e.g.<br />
/msg -Redbrick undone<br />
/msg -bitlbee landa2<br />
it's nothing to worry about :D<br />
<br />
== NickNames ==<br />
<br />
===Setting your nickname===<br />
Bitlbee allows you to set different nicknames for each of the account you have connected. First need to know the number of the account you want to add them to (see above). For example if I want to change my name on MSN to Sleepy Guy, and msn is account 1 I would type<br />
nick 1 "Sleepy Guy"<br />
<br />
===Setting nicknames for other people===<br />
When you use your regular IM client you can see the names that each of your buddies has set for themselves, but on bitlbee you can only see the first part of their email address. This can get quite annoying if people have strange email addresses. So, for example if your friend Kevin happenns to have a strange email address like undoneisthecoolestever@hotmail.com you can rename him to just kev by typing<br />
rename undoneisthecoolestguyever kev<br />
<br />
You can also use this command to rename "root" to whatever you like.<br />
<br />
<br />
== Adding new buddies ==<br />
<br />
Occasionally you'll want to add new buddies. For example if my msn account is number 1 and i want to add undone@hotmail.com I would type<br />
add 1 undone@hotmail.com<br />
<br />
You can also specify custom names when you add new buddies<br />
add 1 undone@hotmail.com kevin<br />
<br />
If I get tired of listening to kevin I can simply remove him by typing<br />
remove kevin<br />
<br />
<br />
== Getting more help ==<br />
The help in bitlbee tells you how to use every command, just type help in your bitlbee channel for more<br />

<hr />
<div>Once upon a time there was BitchX. Then there was Irssi. Now there is Weechat. More and more people are switching over to Weechat from Irssi, probably coz the colours make IRC easier to read and follow. Problem is, for the Irssi user, Weechat may be a tad confusing.<br />
<br />
Weechat documentation can be tricky to follow, so this page is an attempt to make simple those bizarre and abstract commands.<br />
<br />
== Running Weechat ==<br />
<br />
Pints has written an awful bash script to get you started with weechat, but heck it works.<br />
<br />
~edu/confweechat<br />
<br />
Copy and paste that into your terminal command line, hit enter, and give yourself a pat on the back.<br />
<br />
== Basic use ==<br />
<br />
=== Connecting to a server and channel ===<br />
<br />
When you hit 'chat' on Redbrick, you start Irssi, you're automatically connected to a server, then you're joined to Redbrick's #lobby. This all happens behind the scenes, and with Weechat, you need to do this manually. Fear not: it's easy.<br />
<br />
When you start Weechat, you won't get connected to a server or channel. To connect to Redbrick's IRC sever, type:<br />
<br />
/connect irc.redbrick.dcu.ie<br />
<br />
Then to join #lobby:<br />
<br />
/join #lobby<br />
<br />
As well as showing you how IRC clients (such as Weechat or Irssi or whatever) connect to stuff, this should also show you how to connect to other servers and channels outside of Redbrick.<br />
<br />
To connect to any server, simply enter /connect <server_address>. You will probably be greeted with various messages and such from that server. To join a channel on that server, just type /join <channel_name>.<br />
<br />
=== Navigation ===<br />
<br />
Like Irssi, you can move between windows/buffers using Alt+<num>. You can also type /buffer <num> (similar to /win <num> in Irssi).<br />
Unlike irssi you can do Alt+j then <num> to change to a number greather the 10 .<br />
<br />
F5 and F6 move to the predecessing and successing buffer, respectively.<br />
<br />
You can move buffers (chat windows) with /buffer move. In a channel, type:<br />
<br />
/buffer move <num><br />
<br />
(where <num> is any number you want). That channel is now accessible at Alt+<num><br />
<br />
=== Changing between servers ===<br />
<br />
Weechat will generally assume that whatever channel you're in, that's also the server you're operating on. So you can chat away as you wish and issue general commands.<br />
<br />
However, for some commands, you will need to let Weechat know what server you're on.<br />
<br />
Hit Alt+1. This will bring you to your status window. Along the bottom you will see the time, number of channels, the server you're connect to, as well as other channel stuff.<br />
<br />
Press Ctrl+x. If you're connected to multiple servers, the ''server'' section will change, telling you which server Weechat is connect to. So now you can issue commands to that server (such as /nick) without affecting other servers.<br />
<br />
For example, I am currently connected to irc.redbrick.dcu.ie and to irc.starchat.net. If I hit Ctrl-x I can switch to StarChat, and change my nickname there without it affecting Redbrick's IRC.<br />
<br />
== Mobile ==<br />
<br />
weechat has a mobile app you can get from the [https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ubergeek42.WeechatAndroid google play store] or from the [https://github.com/ubergeek42/weechat-android github].<br />
Before we set up the app we need to go too weechat on the terminal and type in:<br />
/relay add weechat 1337<br />
then we need to set the password <br />
/set relay.network.password "your-secret-password"<br />
<br />
now on the Phone launch the app and in settings<br />
In connection settings <br />
Relay host: localhost<br />
Relay Port: 1337 (choose your own port) <br />
Relay password: your-secret-password<br />
Connect type: SSH tunnel<br />
then in SSH Tunnel settings<br />
SSH host: redbrick.dcu.ie<br />
SSH username: your username<br />
SSH port: 22<br />
if you have an ssh key add the route to the key on your phone in SSH Private key file and put the passphrase in the SSH password/key passphrase box, if you dont just put your password in there<br />
<br />
== Special commands ==<br />
<br />
=== Keybinds ===<br />
<br />
Keybinds are handy, especially if you have over 10 channels open. I use Alt+<num> to get to channels, but clearly this only works from 1 up to 0 (on a keyboard). So for channels in higher numbers, you can ''bind'' keys: i.e. Alt+q gets me to channel 11; Alt+y gets me to channel 16.<br />
<br />
/key bind meta-q /buffer 11<br />
<br />
"Key" and "bind" are self-explanatory. "Meta" is Weechat's word for Alt (so meta-q is the same as Alt+q). /buffer 11 is the command that's executed once meta-q (Alt-q) is typed.<br />
<br />
You can build up these to meta-w, meta-e, meta-r for buffer 2, buffer 3, buffer 4, etc etc.<br />
<br />
Of course, you can bind any key combo to any weechat command; it's not necessary to make them Alt+<num> commands.<br />
<br />
'''Note:''' Watch out for caps lock if you're keybinding. If you bind Alt+y to a command, Alt+Y won't work (unless you bind that separately). If you find your binds aren't working, check your caps.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
== Triggers ==<br />
<br />
Triggers are the swiss army knife of weechat. They can replace a '''lot''' of scripts, and we're still finding things to turn into trigger<br />
<br />
=== Turn any line with "nsfw" in it bright red ===<br />
/trigger addreplace nsfw modifier weechat_print "${tg_notify} && ${tg_message_nocolor} =~ .*nsfw.*" "/(.*)/${tg_prefix}\t${color:red}!NSFW! ${tg_message}"<br />
=== Make urls underlined and blue ===<br />
/trigger addreplace url_color modifier "weechat_print" "${tg_tags} !~ irc_quit" ";[a-z]+://\S+;${color:32}${color:underline}${re:0}${color:-underline}${color:reset};" ""<br />
===Strip items such as time from screen on smaller screens ===<br />
/trigger addreplace resize_small_timestamp signal signal_sigwinch "${info:term_width} < 200" "" "/set weechat.look.buffer_time_format \"\""<br />
===add items such as time from screen on bigger screens ===<br />
/trigger addreplace resize_big_timestamp signal signal_sigwinch "${info:term_width} >=200" "" "/set weechat.look.buffer_time_format %H:%M:%S "<br />
<br />
=== turn off nicklist on smaller screens ===<br />
/trigger addreplace resize_big signal signal_sigwinch "${info:term_width} >= 100" "" "/bar show nicklist"<br />
/trigger addreplace resize_small signal signal_sigwinch "${info:term_width} < 100" "" "/bar hide nicklist"<br />
=== turn off buffer list on small screens ===<br />
/trigger addreplace resize_small_buffer signal signal_sigwinch "${info:term_width} < 100" "" "/bar hide buffers"<br />
/trigger addreplace resize_big_buffer signal signal_sigwinch "${info:term_width} >= 100" "" "/bar show buffers"<br />
<br />
==Conditions==<br />
<br />
Conditions can be used to customize weechat depending on certain variables<br />
<br />
===Turn off nicklist on small windows===<br />
/set weechat.bar.nicklist.conditions "${nicklist} && (${window.win_width} > 100 || ${buffer.full_name} == irc.bitlbee.&bitlbee)"<br />
<br />
===Hide buffer list on small terminals===<br />
/set weechat.bar.buffers.conditions "${info:term_width} > 100"<br />
<br />
===Turn off status on nonactive windows ===<br />
/set weechat.bar.status.conditions "${active}"<br />
<br />
== Spell Checker ==<br />
<br />
Weechat uses a handy aspell plugin to check your spelling. To enable it, either use iset or use<br />
/set aspell.check.enabled on<br />
<br />
Aspell has a few settings which you may find useful<br />
<br />
/set aspell.check.real_time on<br />
/set aspell.check.word_min_length 2<br />
/set aspell.check.default_dict "en"<br />
/set aspell.check.suggestions 3<br />
<br />
Or alternatively if you use iset, search for aspell<br />
<br />
The aspell plugin can also offer suggestions as of 0.4.0 and it can be added as an item to your status bar. The item should be added to weechat.bar.status.items. For instance:<br />
/set weechat.bar.status.items "time |,buffer_number+:buffer_name+(buffer_modes)+ |,buffer_nicklist_count |,hotlist |,[aspell_suggest]</div>Greendayhttps://wiki.redbrick.dcu.ie/index.php?title=Weechat&diff=10868Weechat2016-10-25T17:13:37Z<p>Greenday: /* Running Weechat */</p>
<hr />
<div>Once upon a time there was BitchX. Then there was Irssi. Now there is Weechat. More and more people are switching over to Weechat from Irssi, probably coz the colours make IRC easier to read and follow. Problem is, for the Irssi user, Weechat may be a tad confusing.<br />
<br />
Weechat documentation can be tricky to follow, so this page is an attempt to make simple those bizarre and abstract commands.<br />
<br />
== Running Weechat ==<br />
<br />
Pints has written an awful bash script to get you started with weechat, but heck it works.<br />
<br />
~edu/confweechat<br />
<br />
Copy and paste that into your terminal command line, hit enter, and give yourself a pat on the back.<br />
<br />
== Compiling Weechat ==<br />
You can run <br />
~edu/compileweechat<br />
This is only recommended for runing it the first time as it will overright your weechat config.<br />
If You want to update your install just run <br />
~edu/updateweechat<br />
or <br />
git clone https://github.com/weechat/weechat<br />
cd weechat<br />
mkdir build<br />
cd build<br />
cmake .. -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=$HOME -DENABLE_NLS=OFF<br />
make<br />
make install<br />
echo '*/upgrade ~/bin/weechat' > `find ~/.weechat -name "weechat_fifo_*"`<br />
rm -rf ~/weechat<br />
<br />
==Customising Weechat ==<br />
Weechat can be very basic when you first run it so here are some conf files to set it up with.<br />
cp ~edu/wcconf/* ~/.weechat/ <br />
you need to set your nick for the server<br />
vim ~/.weechat/irc.conf<br />
change “nicks” field to your username<br />
<br />
If you ran the ~edu/compileweechat this will already have been done for you<br />
<br />
== Basic use ==<br />
<br />
=== Connecting to a server and channel ===<br />
<br />
When you hit 'chat' on Redbrick, you start Irssi, you're automatically connected to a server, then you're joined to Redbrick's #lobby. This all happens behind the scenes, and with Weechat, you need to do this manually. Fear not: it's easy.<br />
<br />
When you start Weechat, you won't get connected to a server or channel. To connect to Redbrick's IRC sever, type:<br />
<br />
/connect irc.redbrick.dcu.ie<br />
<br />
Then to join #lobby:<br />
<br />
/join #lobby<br />
<br />
As well as showing you how IRC clients (such as Weechat or Irssi or whatever) connect to stuff, this should also show you how to connect to other servers and channels outside of Redbrick.<br />
<br />
To connect to any server, simply enter /connect <server_address>. You will probably be greeted with various messages and such from that server. To join a channel on that server, just type /join <channel_name>.<br />
<br />
=== Navigation ===<br />
<br />
Like Irssi, you can move between windows/buffers using Alt+<num>. You can also type /buffer <num> (similar to /win <num> in Irssi).<br />
Unlike irssi you can do Alt+j then <num> to change to a number greather the 10 .<br />
<br />
F5 and F6 move to the predecessing and successing buffer, respectively.<br />
<br />
You can move buffers (chat windows) with /buffer move. In a channel, type:<br />
<br />
/buffer move <num><br />
<br />
(where <num> is any number you want). That channel is now accessible at Alt+<num><br />
<br />
=== Changing between servers ===<br />
<br />
Weechat will generally assume that whatever channel you're in, that's also the server you're operating on. So you can chat away as you wish and issue general commands.<br />
<br />

<br />

<br />

<br />
For example, I am currently connected to irc.redbrick.dcu.ie and to irc.starchat.net. If I hit Ctrl-x I can switch to StarChat, and change my nickname there without it affecting Redbrick's IRC.<br />
<br />

Before we set up the app we need to go too weechat on the terminal and type in:<br />
/relay add weechat 1337<br />
then we need to set the password <br />
/set relay.network.password "your-secret-password"<br />
<br />

In connection settings <br />
Relay host: localhost<br />
Relay Port: 1337 (choose your own port) <br />
Relay password: your-secret-password<br />
Connect type: SSH tunnel<br />
then in SSH Tunnel settings<br />
SSH host: redbrick.dcu.ie<br />
SSH username: your username<br />
SSH port: 22<br />
if you have an ssh key add the route to the key on your phone in SSH Private key file and put the passphrase in the SSH password/key passphrase box, if you dont just put your password in there<br />

<div>Tmux is a terminal multiplexer<br />
<br />
What is a terminal multiplexer? It lets you switch easily between several programs in one terminal, detach them (they keep running in the background) and reattach them to a different terminal.<br />
It is a good alternative to screen.<br />
<br />
==Installation==<br />
$ git clone https://github.com/tmux/tmux.git<br />
$ cd tmux<br />
$ sh autogen.sh<br />
$ ./configure && make<br />
<br />
==Prefix==<br />
Shortcuts are all used by pressing the prefix then the shortcut.<br />
The default is <br />
Control + b <shortcut><br />
<br />
The prefix can also be changed. (At the end of the wiki)<br />
<br />
==Session Management==<br />
<br />
Sessions are useful for completely separating work environments. <br />
<br />
To create a new tmux session named session_name<br />
tmux new -s session_name<br />
To attache to an existing tmux session named session_name<br />
tmux attach -t session_name<br />
To switche to an existing session named session_name<br />
tmux switch -t session_name<br />
To list existing tmux sessions<br />
tmux list-sessions<br />
To detach the currently attached session<br />
tmux detach (prefix + d)<br />
<br />
==Windows==<br />
<br />
Tmux has a tabbed interface, but it calls its tabs “Windows”. To stay organized, I rename all the windows I use. (Well I don't because I guess I hate myself.<br />
<br />
To create a new window<br />
tmux new-window (prefix + c)<br />
To move to the window based on index<br />
tmux select-window -t :0-9 (prefix + 0-9)<br />
To rename the current window<br />
tmux rename-window (prefix + ,)<br />
To kill just one window<br />
prefix + &<br />
<br />
==Panes==<br />
<br />
Panes make everything easier, and better!<br />
<br />
splits the window into two vertical panes<br />
tmux split-window (prefix + ")<br />
splits the window into two horizontal panes<br />
tmux split-window -h (prefix + %)<br />
swaps pane with another in the specified direction<br />
tmux swap-pane -[UDLR] (prefix + { or })<br />
selects the next pane in the specified direction<br />
tmux select-pane -[UDLR]<br />
selects the next pane in numerical order<br />
tmux select-pane -t :.+<br />
<br />
==Helpful tmux commands==<br />
<br />
lists out every bound key and the tmux command it runs<br />
tmux list-keys<br />
lists out every tmux command and its arguments<br />
tmux list-commands<br />
lists out every session, window, pane, its pid, etc.<br />
tmux info<br />
reloads the current tmux configuration (based on a default tmux config)<br />
tmux source-file ~/.tmux.conf<br />
<br />
==Helpful Configs==<br />
<br />
These are some tmux configs:<br />
<br />
nano .tmux.conf<br />
<br />
Remap prefix to Control + a<br />
set -g prefix C-a<br />
unbind C-b<br />
bind C-a send-prefix<br />
<br />
Force a reload of the config file<br />
unbind r<br />
bind r source-file ~/.tmux.conf<br />
<br />
Quick pane cycling<br />
unbind ^A<br />
bind ^A select-pane -t :.+<br />
<br />

<hr />
<div>Git is a distributed version control system, like Mercurial.<br />
<br />
At some stage, someone might put up a full tutorial showing how to use git, but for now, here's a badly written and terribly phrased guide on how to get and use a repository on redbrick's git hosting area.<br />
<br />
Redbrick do not host your gits any more. The best place for this is [http://www.github.com github]<br />
<br />
== Getting a git repository on Redbrick ==<br />
<br />
<strike>Redbrick hosts git repositories for users.</strike> You (and any other users you want) can have write access to the repository. The world has read-only access via the web interface at http://git.redbrick.dcu.ie (although I'm not sure that they can actually pull from there - the system is still a bit of a work in progress), so don't use this to host any code you don't want the world to see. It's perfect for any small open source projects you feel like starting though, or if you want to branch/fork an existing open source project that's hosted on git.<br />
<br />
=== Can I have a private repository that the world can't see? ===<br />
Not on git.redbrick.dcu.ie. You could create one in your own home directory if you wanted to do this, but you'll need to figure out how to do it yourself :)<br />
<br />
=== Can I use this to host my third year/fourth year/other important college project? ===<br />
Short answer: No. And you shouldn't do this in your redbrick home directory either. There have been a number of times in the past where Redbrick has experienced problems meaning that a user who had the only copy (or the only backup copy) of a project weren't able to access it at some important deadline.<br />
<br />
Long answer: If you have other copies of your code, and Redbrick isn't the primary (only) backup of it, and you just wanted to have yet another backup of it "just because", then ''maybe'' it might make sense to put it on redbrick. But I still wouldn't.<br />
<br />
=== Creating an SSH key pair ===<br />
Before you can use redbrick's git repositories from one of your computers (or from your redbrick shell), you need to create a public/private SSH keypair there if you haven't already. You'll need to do this for every device/place that you want to access git from. This might sound annoying, but it also lets you use git without having to type a password every time you need to clone/push/pull.<br />
<br />
To do this on a Unixey (Linux/Mac OS X/on redbrick) system, run:<br />
<br />
ssh-keygen -t rsa<br />
<br />
You'll probably want to hit enter for most/all of the default options. Especially the first one (where to save the key). When it's done, you'll probably see something like this:<br />
<br />
<pre><br />
[you@your-computer ~]$ ssh-keygen -t rsa<br />
Generating public/private rsa key pair.<br />
Enter file in which to save the key (/Users/you/.ssh/id_rsa): <br />
Enter passphrase (empty for no passphrase): <br />
Enter same passphrase again: <br />
Your identification has been saved in /Users/you/.ssh/id_rsa.<br />
Your public key has been saved in /Users/you/.ssh/id_rsa.pub.<br />
The key fingerprint is:<br />
58:06:86:0c:83:5e:4e:ab:75:93:96:37:76:42:73:07 you@your-computer.local<br />
The key's randomart image is:<br />
+--[ RSA 2048]----+<br />
| .oo .o E. |<br />
|. +o. + . . |<br />
|. + . + = . |<br />
| . + * O . |<br />
| o o = S |<br />
| . |<br />
| |<br />
| |<br />
| |<br />
+-----------------+<br />
[you@your-computer ~]$<br />
</pre><br />
<br />
(the little ascii art bit might not show up on older versions of SSH).<br />
<br />
This has created two files on your computer - id_rsa and id_rsa.pub. id_rsa is your '''private''' SSH key, and id_rsa.pub is the corresponding public key. You keep id_rsa to yourself, and you can give id_rsa.pub to admins to allow you to access a repository. You can also upload it to a remote server (like redbrick) and put it in a specific location to allow you passwordless logins, but you can google for how to do that.<br />
<br />
=== Ask the admins ===<br />
Find an admin, and ask him/her/it if they'll add your repository to the system. They'll need the name of the repo, and any SSH '''public''' keys (not the private ones) belonging to devices that you want to be able to access your repository from sent to them. For example, if you want to be able to access the repository from your laptop, send them the id_rsa.pub file that you generated on your laptop (you'll find it in ~/.ssh). If you want to get at it from your desktop and your redbrick account, send them the id_rsa.pub files from your redbrick account and your desktop.<br />
<br />
If you want to add more devices later, you can always ask the admins to add (or remove) some public keys.<br />
<br />
=== Create the repository ===<br />
Once the admins have done their work, you need to actually create the repository. You do this on your own computer (or redbrick account, or wherever one of your keys came from). If you asked the admins to create you a repository named "awesomeproject", you'd do the following:<br />
<br />
mkdir awesomeproject<br />
cd awesomeproject<br />
git init<br />
git remote add origin git@git.redbrick.dcu.ie:awesomeproject.git<br />
<br />
At this point you should do some work, like create a file and put something into it, or whatever. This is where a proper guide to git would be handy. Then commit your changes and do a first push:<br />
<br />
git commit -a -m "My first commit"<br />
git push origin master:refs/heads/master<br />
<br />
''Things to look out for:'' When you're doing the "git remote add origin" command, make sure you add ".git" to the end of the repository name. The system that redbrick uses (called Gitosis, if anybody cares) to manage repositories needs that there. Also, in "git@git.redbrick.dcu.ie", the "git" user isn't a placeholder. You need use that user, not your own redbrick username.</div>Greendayhttps://wiki.redbrick.dcu.ie/index.php?title=Git&diff=10850Git2016-10-16T21:38:27Z<p>Greenday: </p>

<div>Freshers, that unstable breed of member. There are too many types to be classified under one heading, so here are some grossly unfair generalisations.<br />
<br />
The Non-Redbrick fresher: Well, who actually cares? There has only been one worth mentioning, and that was KatiefromClare, a legend in her own lunchtime, reputed to have shifted almost every (presumably) male in her year, greeted everyone with "Hi, I'm KatiefromClare" to which this writer often replied "Yeah, I know, fuck off", I was not alone in this.<br />
<br />
The Redbrick fresher : These can be classified by the types below.<br />
<br />
* '''The Lurker:''' This type of fresher never posts, preferring to read the thousands of posts made every week without comment. They're wierd. Alternatively<br />
they will use mail, and OCCASIONALLY chat, but that's about it.<br />
* '''[[The Wanker]]''': Logs onto Redbrick and starts a thread (usually with several others of his breed) about how someone is a raving faggot with syphillis. <br> This thread can be several yards long and quite often infuriates other more pleasant members into joining the thread, encouraging the wankers.<br />
* '''The Pedant:''' The fresher who knows EVERYTHING, he or she has an opinion about absolutely everything posted about on the boards, and knows far more about <br> it than you. Generally they don't last long, since cold hard facts are the best known bane to this creature.<br />
* '''The nauseatingly cute:''' Generally you will be able to recognise this poster from the feeling of bile rising towards your mouth when you read a post by <br>them. Not so much cute as cewte, so sweet they could give you cavities.<br />
* '''The wierd-no-one-knows-what-they-look-like-but-all-the-lads-want-into-her-pants fresher:''' Almost always a she, infact a male member of this sub genus is <br> unheard of. Generally this type of fresher is much like the nauseatingly cute one, but with one minor difference. When she is verbally attacked on the boards, <br>the people who defend her are exclusively male. Female members never defend her for some reason. It may be hormones. It is safe to assume that it is some bizzare <br>type of courtship ritiual where the person who defends her the most will get to sleep with her. Or at least thats what the guys think.<br />
* '''The Facist:''' Generally a fresher with very strong opinions about either music or computers, the Oasis Vs Somethinggood or N64 Vs your PC arguments are quite <br>often initiated or mainly argued by this type.<br />
<br />
Generally these classifications are only applicable to freshers since after first year, they generally calm down into the generic Redbrick member, the stable calm type with their own opinions and not those from a book or magazine.<br />

* The wierd-no-one-knows-what-they-look-like-but-all-the-lads-want-into-her-pants fresher: Almost always a she, infact a male member of this sub genus is <br>unheard of. Generally this type of fresher is much like the nauseatingly cute one, but with one minor difference. When she is verbally attacked on the boards, the people who defend her are exclusively male. Female members never defend her for some reason. It may be hormones. It is safe to assume that it is some bizzare type of courtship ritiual where the person who defends her the most will get to sleep with her. Or at least thats what the guys think.<br />
* The Facist: Generally a fresher with very strong opinions about either music or computers, the Oasis Vs Somethinggood or N64 Vs your PC arguments are quite often initiated or mainly argued by this type.<br />
<br />
Generally these classifications are only applicable to freshers since after first year, they generally calm down into the generic Redbrick member, the stable calm type with their own opinions and not those from a book or magazine.<br />

<hr />
<div>Games available on RedBrick <strike>([[minerva]])</strike>([[Azazel]]). These are all located in: /usr/games<br />
<br />
To see what a game is about, execute the "man" command followed by the game's name. For example: man nethack<br />
<br />
RedBrick also hosts other games on behalf of the DCU Games Society on their server [[blinky]].<br />
<br />
==abe==<br />
Does Not Work. ~ carri@minerva<br />
==adventure==<br />
I killed this. I got bored. <br />
==airstrike==<br />
Does Not Work. ~ carri@minerva<br />
==arithmetic==<br />
If I was 6 this would be awesome to practise maths. -_- It's addition and subtraction.<br />
==atc==<br />
Really easy to make the top players list.<br />
==backgammon==<br />
===teachgammon===<br />
Teaches you how to play backgammon. Useful, because I don't have a clue either.<br />
==banner==<br />
Makes things into a banner.. Like figlet but with... #<br />
==battlestar==<br />
Could do with a "how to guide" <br />
==bcd==<br />
"The bcd, ppt and morse commands read the given input and reformat it in the form of punched cards, paper tape or morse code respectively. Acceptable input are command line arguments or the standard input." Love the man page.<br />
==boggle==<br />
Boggle! <br />

"The caesar utility attempts to decrypt caesar ciphers using English letter frequency statistics. caesar reads from the standard input and writes to the standard output."<br />
==canfield==<br />
The solitaire card game, canfield.<br />
===cfscores===<br />
Shows the database of high scores for canfield.<br />
==countmail==<br />
The countmail program counts your mail and tells you about it rather obnoxiously. If it doesn't work for you, e-mail admins@redbrick.dcu.ie and annoy them.<br />
==cribbage==<br />
Card game without cards. <br />
==dab==<br />
I like this. It's like a game called dots I used to play. The aim to fill in as many boxes you can with your name. You play against the computer.<br />
==dopewars==<br />
<br />
[[Image:400px-Stash3.jpg]]<br />
<br />
In this game, you play a drug dealer, travelling between New York's five boroughs. You make money by buying selling a plethora of mind-altering substances. <br />
It's all the fun of drug dealing '''without''' the legal repercussions!<br />
<br />
==eboard==<br />
===eboard-addtheme===<br />
==fortune==<br />
==gnuchess==<br />
===gnuchessx===<br />

<br />
This is a nice games, asked for by Fructus cause he loves it, you get a screen filled with numbers. You move the number of places in the direction you choose according to the number, All spaces are than replaced by black. Your goal is to clear as much of the screen as you can.<br />
==nethack==<br />
<br />
NetHack is an Advanced Dungeons and Dragons simulator. (Read: NetHack is a game for when you have so few friends that you can't even muster up four people to pretend to be elves in some stupid dungeon). I like it though. <br />
<br />
Players: <br />
* [[User:gw|gw]] <br />
* [[User:Bunbun|bunbun]]<br />
* [[User:fun|fun]]<br />
* [[User:creadak|creadak]]<br />
<br />
The version of Nethack on Redbrick is based on the Ubuntu version, which contains, among others, the [http://nethackwiki.com/wiki/Menucolors menucolors] and [http://nethackwiki.com/wiki/Hpmon hpmon] patches.<br />
We also patch it with the [http://bilious.homelinux.org/?40 dumplog] patch, which records a lot of info about the game when you die.<br />
<br />
A configuration file for the game (which takes advantage of hpmon and menucolors and makes it prettier with UTF-8 shit, among other things) is available [http://www.redbrick.dcu.ie/~bunbun/.nethackrc here], just put it in ~/.nethackrc.<br />
If you'd like to keep all of the dumpfiles created when you die, instead of just the most recent, add the following alias to your shell rc file (most likely ~/.zshrc)<br />
alias nethack="nethack; [ ! -e \"/var/games/nethack/save/$USERID$USERNAME.gz\" ] && cp /var/games/nethack/dumps/$USERNAME.lastgame.txt ~/dumps/\`date +%Y-%m-%d-%H:%M:%S\`.txt"<br />
Make sure to change $USERID and $USERNAME to your userid (gotten with the `id` command) and your username. This should save it each time you die to ~/dumps/YEAR-MM-DD-HH:MM:SS.txt, though in some cases it creates duplicates (If you quit before choosing your role/race/gender/alignment that I know of).<br />
<br />
==netris==<br />
<br />
Networked multiplayer version of tetris. You can play with anyone logged into RedBrick.<br />
<br />
Players: [[User:lil_cain|lil_cain]] [[User:phaxx|phaxx]] [[User:train|train]]<br />

==number==<br />
==worm==<br />
<br />
A clone of the game "Snake" which was created in the 1970s but popularised by the Nokia 3210 mobile phone (especially in Irish secondary schools!)<br />
<br />
==worms==<br />
==wtf==<br />
<br />
Not really a game per se. Decodes [[Acronyms|acronyms]].</div>Greendayhttps://wiki.redbrick.dcu.ie/index.php?title=Tmux&diff=10845Tmux2016-10-16T10:09:38Z<p>Greenday: /* Windows */</p>
<hr />
<div>Tmux is a terminal multiplexer<br />
<br />
What is a terminal multiplexer? It lets you switch easily between several programs in one terminal, detach them (they keep running in the background) and reattach them to a different terminal.<br />
It is a good alternative to screen.<br />
<br />
==Installation==<br />
$ git clone https://github.com/tmux/tmux.git<br />
$ cd tmux<br />
$ sh autogen.sh<br />
$ ./configure && make<br />
<br />
==Prefix==<br />
Shortcuts are all used by pressing the prefix then the shortcut.<br />
The default is <br />
Control + b <shortcut><br />
<br />
The prefix can also be changed. (At the end of the wiki)<br />
<br />
==Session Management==<br />
<br />
Sessions are useful for completely separating work environments. <br />
<br />
To create a new tmux session named session_name<br />
tmux new -s session_name<br />
To attache to an existing tmux session named session_name<br />
tmux attach -t session_name<br />
To switche to an existing session named session_name<br />
tmux switch -t session_name<br />
To list existing tmux sessions<br />
tmux list-sessions<br />
To detach the currently attached session<br />
tmux detach (prefix + d)<br />
<br />
==Windows==<br />
<br />
Tmux has a tabbed interface, but it calls its tabs “Windows”. To stay organized, I rename all the windows I use. (Well I don't because I guess I hate myself.<br />
<br />
To create a new window<br />
tmux new-window (prefix + c)<br />
To move to the window based on index<br />
tmux select-window -t :0-9 (prefix + 0-9)<br />
To rename the current window<br />
tmux rename-window (prefix + ,)<br />
To kill just one window<br />
prefix + &<br />
<br />
==Panes==<br />
<br />
Panes make everything easier, and better!<br />
<br />
splits the window into two vertical panes<br />
tmux split-window (prefix + ")<br />
splits the window into two horizontal panes<br />
tmux split-window -h (prefix + %)<br />
swaps pane with another in the specified direction<br />
tmux swap-pane -[UDLR] (prefix + { or })<br />
selects the next pane in the specified direction<br />
tmux select-pane -[UDLR]<br />
selects the next pane in numerical order<br />
tmux select-pane -t :.+<br />
<br />
==Helpful tmux commands==<br />
<br />
lists out every bound key and the tmux command it runs<br />
tmux list-keys<br />
lists out every tmux command and its arguments<br />
tmux list-commands<br />
lists out every session, window, pane, its pid, etc.<br />
tmux info<br />
reloads the current tmux configuration (based on a default tmux config)<br />
tmux source-file ~/.tmux.conf<br />
<br />
==Helpful Configs==<br />
<br />
These are some tmux configs:<br />
<br />
nano .tmux.conf<br />
<br />
Remap prefix to Control + a<br />
set -g prefix C-a<br />
unbind C-b<br />
bind C-a send-prefix<br />
<br />
Force a reload of the config file<br />
unbind r<br />
bind r source-file ~/.tmux.conf<br />
<br />
Quick pane cycling<br />
unbind ^A<br />
bind ^A select-pane -t :.+</div>Greendayhttps://wiki.redbrick.dcu.ie/index.php?title=TimeLine2016&diff=10844TimeLine20162016-10-15T22:20:45Z<p>Greenday: /* October */</p>

[[Category:Redbrick History]]</div>Greendayhttps://wiki.redbrick.dcu.ie/index.php?title=Your_Webpage_Stats&diff=10840Your Webpage Stats2016-10-15T20:14:49Z<p>Greenday: </p>
<hr />
<div>So you want to see the statistics for your webpage?<br />
<br />
<br />
'''This no longer works because of permissions'''<br />
<pre>To see the logs for all the webpages on redbrick, 'ssh <strike>murphy</strike> pyg' and then look in '/var/log/apache2'. The logs are split up by year, date and type. So the access logs for the 8th of March 2008 would be found at '/var/log/apache2/2008/03/08-combined_log'. You can pipe any of the logs to 'grep /~username' to pick out information on your own page.</pre><br />
<br />
If your using a vhost (i.e. your own web domain) on redbrick you won't be able to pick out hits to your domain using the grep method above. You should ask the admins to generate logs for your domain. Sometime in the future, the combined logs may be configured to handle these web domains.<br />
<br />
If you want a more graphical representation, you can use a tool like [[#Using_AWStats|awstats]]. [[User:Ryaner|ryaner]] generates [http://www.redbrick.dcu.ie/~ryaner/logs/rb/ awstats for all of Redbrick].<br />
<br />
==Using AWStats==<br />
<br />
Install [http://awstats.sourceforge.net/ AWstats] into your webpage as instructed but you will use different options for when you run 'awstats_configure.pl'. You must run 'awstats_configure.pl' on 'deathray'.<br />
<br />
For 'Do you want to continue setup from this NON standard directory [yN] ?' answer 'y'.<br />
<br />
For 'Config file path ('none' to skip web server setup):' answer 'none'.<br />
<br />
For 'Do you want me to build a new AWStats config/profile file (required if first install) [y/N] ?' answer 'y'.<br />
<br />
For 'Your web site, virtual server or profile name:' answer 'www.redbrick.dcu.ie'. <br />
<br />
For 'Directory path to store config file(s) (Enter for default):' answer the directory containing the 'awstats.pl'. This might be something like '/webtree/c/cammy/awstats/wwwroot/cgi-bin'. This directory will be where the profile is created. <br />
<br />
Let the script finish.<br />
<br />
Now there should be a 'awstats.www.redbrick.dcu.ie.conf' created in the same directory as 'awstats.pl' (depending on your options). You'll need to configure a few things within it to get it to work. Open it in your favourite text editor.<br />
<br />
Set the 'DirData' option to 'DirData'"."'. This will generate the data files in the same place as the 'awstats.pl' script. The default location is invalid.<br />
<br />
Set the 'SiteDomain' option to 'SiteDomain="www.redbrick.dcu.ie"'<br />
<br />
Set the 'LogFile' option to 'LogFile="/var/log/apache2/%YYYY-0/%MM-0/%DD-0-combined_log"'.<br />
<br />
If you want to gather stats for more than a day, say the whole month, then replace the 'LogFile' option with this: 'LogFile="/pathtotools/logresolvemerge.pl /var/log/apache2/%YYYY-0/%MM-0/*-combined_log |"'. Replace 'pathtotools' to point to where you installed the awstat tools directory. Be warned, this will slow down the update process by a few minutes. BTW, before 'logresolvemerge.pl' will run, you'll have to change the permissions to excutable, i.e. 'chmod 755 /pathtotools/logresolvemerge.pl'. <br />
<br />
If you want only your logs you can use 'grep' to do it. Change 'LogFile' to 'LogFile="grep /~username /var/log/apache2/%MM-0/%DD-0-combined_log |"' and change 'username' to your username to get only your hits. (Rememeber this does not work for vhosts though you can write a script that combines vhost logs with these logs etc.)<br />
<br />
If you've kept the same directory structure from the awstats archive and uploaded it to your web space in some subdirectory, you may notice none of the icons appear. Change the option 'DirIcons' to 'DirIcons="../icon"'.<br />
<br />
There are also a number of plugins avaliable on Redbrick that can be used by awstats. Update the 'LoadPlugin' options with these settings:<br />
<br />
LoadPlugin="ipv6"<br />
LoadPlugin="hashfiles"<br />
LoadPlugin="geoip GEOIP_STANDARD"<br />
<br />
Of course, you can also set or change any other options you want.<br />
<br />
Make sure the permissions are correct on the awstats.pl script. 'chmod 755 /pathtoawstats/awstats.pl'.<br />
<br />
Now, as per the original instructions for [http://awstats.sourceforge.net/ AWStats], you can do a initial update of the logs (i.e. 'awstats.pl -config=www.redbrick.dcu.ie -update'). This must be done on 'deathray' just like the configure script. This will compile the stats from the logs selected by the 'LogFile' option.<br />
<br />
You can then generate static html pages or load it all up dynamically as per the awstat setup documentation.<br />
<br />

===Custom key mappings===<br />
You may remap or unmap any of the default key bindings in the "Custom key mappings" on the options page.<br />
<br />
Enter one of the following key mapping commands per line:<br />
<br />
<br />
Maps a key to a Vimium command. Overrides Chrome's default behavior (if any).<br />
* <pre>map key command:</pre><br />
Unmaps a key and restores Chrome's default behavior (if any).<br />
* <pre>unmap key:</pre><br />
Unmaps all bindings. This is useful if you want to completely wipe Vimium's defaults and start from scratch with your own setup.<br />
* <pre>unmapAll: </pre><br />
<br />
Examples:<br />
<br />
Maps ctrl+d to scrolling the page down. Chrome's default behavior of bringing up a bookmark dialog is suppressed.<br />
* <pre>map <c-d> scrollPageDown</pre> <br />
maps the r key to reloading the page.<br />
* <pre>map r reload</pre><br />
removes any mapping for ctrl+d and restores Chrome's default behavior. <br />
* <pre>unmap <c-d></pre> <br />
removes any mapping for the r key.<br />
* <pre>unmap r</pre> <br />
Available Vimium commands can be found via the "Show available commands" link near the key mapping box on the options page. The command name appears to the right of the description in parenthesis.<br />
<br />
You can add comments to key mappings by starting a line with " or #.<br />
<br />
The following special keys are available for mapping:<br />
<br />
* <pre><c-*>, <a-*>, <m-*> for ctrl, alt, and meta (command on Mac) respectively with any key. Replace * with the key of choice.</pre><br />
* <pre><left>, <right>, <up>, <down> for the arrow keys</pre><br />
* <pre><space> and <backspace> for the space and backspace keys</pre><br />
* <pre><f1> through <f12> for the function keys</pre><br />
Shifts are automatically detected so, for example, <c-&> corresponds to ctrl+shift+7 on an English keyboard.<br />
<br />

<div>A visual overview of who did what, when.<br />
<br />
This gets less accurate the further back you go in time - I was working off the [[Committee]] page, making guesses at who resigned, when. 2006 onwards should be fairly accurate (working from memory). Feel free to make any corrections (it's a pig of a table, though, so you might want to work on it offline, and abuse the Show Preview function a bit).<br />
<br />
At the very least, it shows the sheer number of people (and man hours) who have been involved in running Redbrick at one point or another.<br />

=== Notes ===<br />
* Robby actually took over as chairperson in mid April and resigned in early June 2008 (Q2). Technically, Redbrick had no chair in Q3, although Dano was acting chair. Committee handovers can be gradual and happen any time from the end of the academic year til the end of the summer, but it's impractical/impossible to document this exactly in graph form.</div>Greendayhttps://wiki.redbrick.dcu.ie/index.php?title=Committee&diff=10837Committee2016-10-15T12:59:53Z<p>Greenday: </p>
<hr />
<div>The name given to the leadership of Redbrick. Elected every year at the Annual General Meeting it is composed of 12 members: three admins, two helpdesk, Webmaster, a first year rep, a Secretary, PRO, Ents Officer, Treasurer and Chairperson. The First Year Rep is elected at an Extraordinary General Meeting (EGM), usually held during Clubs & Socs Week at the start of October. You must be a first year member to run for this position. All members of the committee are given ops in #lobby while the admins, along with previous system administrators still in the root group, hold [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Root_user root]. The webmaster may also hold root, upon passing a root competency test.<br />
<br />
They are the Society's most popular target for abuse and insults and work tirelessly and without compensation for the Society they love so much. A list of past and present Committee members can be found at http://www.redbrick.dcu.ie/about/committee/<br />
<br />
An alternative view of the Committee is that it is a collection of the power-mad, the arrogant, the popular and the insulting. All members have their own opinions on that matter but most will agree that without the Committee Redbrick would not be able to function, and for that, and perhaps that alone, they deserve thanks.<br />

<hr />
<div>The name given to the leadership of Redbrick. Elected every year at the Annual General Meeting it is composed of 12 members: three admins, two helpdesk, Webmaster, a first year rep, a Secretary, PRO, Ents Officer, Treasurer and Chairperson. The First Year Rep is elected at an Extraordinary General Meeting (EGM), usually held during Clubs & Socs Week at the start of October. You must be a first year member to run for this position. All members of the committee are given ops in #lobby while the admins, along with previous system administrators still in the root group, hold [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Root_user root]. The webmaster may also hold root, upon passing a root competency test.<br />
<br />
They are the Society's most popular target for abuse and insults and work tirelessly and without compensation for the Society they love so much. A list of past and present Committee members can be found at http://www.redbrick.dcu.ie/about/committee/<br />
<br />
An alternative view of the Committee is that it is a collection of the power-mad, the arrogant, the popular and the insulting. All members have their own opinions on that matter but most will agree that without the Committee Redbrick would not be able to function, and for that, and perhaps that alone, they deserve thanks.<br />

<hr />
<div>Feel free to add an an entry about your username below!<br />
<br />
<!-- Please follow the same format when adding your username in alphabetical order --><br />
<br />
==[[User:AngelKat|AngelKat]]==<br />
<br />
Drusilla picked it...<br />
<br />
==[[User:art_wolf|art_wolf]]==<br />
<br />
Cool picture I have hanging up. Have had it for ages and its by Art Wolfe.<br />
<br />
==[[User:atlas|atlas]]==<br />
<br />
I originally handed in my student card, and said "Use my first name, please". I got an email later giving me my username as 'James' ( my middle name ). When I asked them to change, I decided to go with something a little cooler. I had been up for hours before that playing Mechwarrior somethingorother, and the Atlas mech was my favourite. I also, occasionally, feel like I have the weight of the world on my shoulders.<br />
<br />
==[[User:Attol|Attol]]==<br />
My name, but backwards.<br />
<br />
==[[User:beimear|beimear]]==<br />
It's eimear, with a "b". <br />
<br />
==[[User:bilco|bilco]]==<br />
<br />
Cause as a fresher I though it was the character's name from The Hobbit<br />
<br />
==[[User:bunbun|bunbun]]==<br />
It's kinda from my surname, in a way...<br />
Also elephant made me.<br />
<br />
==[[User:cain|cain]]==<br />
<br />
I always thought Cain got a raw deal. Firstborn son of Adam, built the first city on earth and he's remembered for allegedly killing his brother Abel though the evidence is, to put it mildly, unconvincing and God was clearly biased against him. When I joined Redbrick, Cain was gone so I got Caine, which was the spelling of the name in an RPG I played at the time. Dropped the 'e' in my second year.<br />
<br />
==[[User:calyx|calyx]]==<br />
Misread the name of a song. In a perfect world, I would have been calx.<br />
<br />
==[[User:cambo|cambo]]==<br />
<br />
An abbreviation of sorts on my surname (campbell)... original eh?<br />
<br />
==[[User:cammy|cammy]]==<br />
<br />
I was using it as a web handle long before I joined Redbrick. It comes from the name of one of my first roleplaying characters that wasn't just a bunch of stats. The name for that roleplaying character though, came from the computer game Streetfighter 2.<br />
<br />
Well actually cammy was my second choice. I would have liked to use The_Dead_One but that exceeds the 8 character limit.<br />
<br />
==[[User:carri|carri]]==<br />
I wanted giggleberry but its too long. So me being my epically cool self just used my actual 'name'. <br />
<br />
==[[User:coconut|coconut]]==<br />
<br />
On Clubs and Socs Day 2005 I was put on the spot while joining Redbrick (LIKE EVERYONE ELSE WAS)! It went a little something like this:<br />
<br />
atlas: "Okay, and pick a username."<br><br />
Me: "What... now?!"<br><br />
atlas: "Yes."<br><br />
Me: "Right now?!?"<br><br />
atlas: "Yes."<br><br />
Me: "Errr.." *looks down at the free chocolate being given away - notices the wrappers and ingredients* "Em.. coconut?"<br><br />
atlas: "kk lol fag"<br><br />
Me: "I'll change it later!"<br><br />
<br />
That last part was, evidently, a lie.<br />
<br />
==[[User:colmmacc|colmmacc]]==<br />
I was assigned the username colmmacc for the purposes of my first ever internet account (and job), colmmacc@clubi.ie , way back when in 1995/6 (I think). Ever since, I've used it for all my accounts and it works at every domain on which I hold an account. Despite the huge coincidence, my username is fact not just a mere contracted concatonation of my real name "Colm MacCarthaigh", but is fact an acronym. It stands for "Colm's On-Line Memetic Mechanism [for] Accessing Complicated Computers". <br />
<br />
==[[User:cooker3|cooker3]]==<br />
It is my username for the lab machines in the CA building, it's not to do with an obcession with cookers!<br />
<br />
==[[User:credak|credak]]==<br />
Originally I wanted creadak (notice the extra a), cause Crea Dak was a character I had on Guild wars. I wrote it down, and the admins left out the extra a. I kinda like it better this way now...<br />
<br />
==[[User:david|david]]==<br />
The year that I joined DCU Hasselhoff was given a star on the Hollywood walk of fame. With all the new challenges in my life at that time I found that he was someone I could look up to. I could admire his achievements. He was like an uncle to me. I grew up on Kinght Rider and am looking forward to the new movie coming out this year. And then when I got a little older and started noticing girls I got interested in Baywatch. I wanted to be the stud that he was on that show. Appropriately in 2000 when I joined redbrick he released one of his many hit albums in Germany - "The Magic Colleciton". So I chose david as my redbrick username because ... well actually its not that interesting really, its my name in real life.<br />
<br />
==[[User:doc|DoC]]==<br />
It's the initials of my real name. I've been called DoC in real life by friends, family, etc, for as long as I can remember.<br />
<br />
==[[User:drag0n|drag0n]]==<br />
Friends in college said that I needed a nickname, probably because they're too lazy to say my full name "Diarmuid" and I find "Diarm" quite creepy, so basically, "dragon" popped into their heads and it stuck! I used be called siphi (for no particular reason, it was a random name I was known by onli ne), then changed to drag0n (with a zero). The zero is because the user "dragon" is allready taken on rb. But everyone loved the new name so I added the zero. If you hey the other dragon, you generally get a confused hey in response, so I generally have heys disabled. anyways...<br />
<br />
==[[User:dramabob|dramabob]]==<br />
When I signed up, along with everyone else in known history, back in 2004 I honestly can't remember being asked to pick a username. Imagine my surprise when later that week I got an email telling me my username was "roibeard" (er, my first name). Boo-urns. I approached one of the Kings Of Redbrick ([[User:Dizer|dizer]], [[User:Atlas|atlas]] or [[User:Phaxx|phaxx]], can't remember which) and asked to change my username to the much cooler sounding "silentbob" of "Clerks" fame (and several other, less good, movies). Further boo-urns ensued when t'was revealed that "silentbob" had one character too many, so having joined DCU Drama in addition to RB, I opted to go with "dramabob" - thus was born dramabob. w00t. I admit to being miffed upon hearing that both "bob" and "bobb" were already used up, but found out many many years later that "bobb" was a next door neighbour of mine in my long lost childhood in the mid 1970's. Bizarre.<br />
<br />
==[[User:dregin|dregin]]==<br />
The lead guitarist with the Backyard Babys' name is dregen[sic]. I took it and stuck an x on the end for a few years as a forum alias but then knocked off the x. tada!! <br />
<br />
==[[User:drusilla|drusilla]]==<br />
My nick was surprisingly enough, from the character on Buffy! Friends of mine in second year of school gave it to me when they noticed the similarities between myself and the insane vampire. Funnily, dru was my second nick on RedBrick, before that I was zerocool<br />
<br />
==[[User:duff|duff]]==<br />
It's my surname.<br />
<br />
==[[User:elmer|elmer]]==<br />
My username came from my first ever email address(elmer@clubi.ie) which i chose based on the looney tunes character elmer fudd<br />
<br />
==[[User:exzantia|exzantia]]==<br />
As many, many people have pointed out, my name seems like a random string of letters, and it kinda is... When I was signing up for a Yahoo mail account in '98 everything I tried was already taken. I was not having under-scores or numbers so I decided to come up with something that would always be available! I thus far have succeeded.<br />
<br />
==[[User:eondev|eondev]]==<br />
I use a different username elsewhere but decided it was time for a change. I always liked the word Eon and I started to develop (dev) an MMORPG around the time I was joining redbrick so I chose EonDev. Yes, horribly boring but /shrug<br />
<br />
==[[User:fatwa|fatwa]]==<br />
<br />
In first year, whilst learning to program, my friend Andrew wrote a program that printed out "That's a fatwa on you, mein freund".<br />
I thought it was funny and it must have stuck in my head for redbrick registering. Also, it's short for "fat wanker".<br />
<br />
<br />
==[[User:fox_chic|fox_chic]]==<br />
<br />
Cause I'm an xphile and Mulder's first name is Fox. :)<br />
<br />
==[[User:fructus|fructus]]==<br />
<br />
I am sometimes get called "Fructis", "Fruitcake" or "Fruitcaek", despite "fructus" and "fructis" (the shampoo) being spelt alike thats not where the username came from. Once opon a time I was trying to come up with some username that wasn't going to taken everything time I tried signing up to things, After some thinking I came up with "Fructus Sum" which is latin for "To Be Fruit" which was as close as I could get to "I am mad" in latin with out it being long or just not to my liking. Of course when Redbrick doesn't allow that many chars so I dropped the sum and go by "Fructus" which yes means "Fruit" a long which a whole lot more.<br />
<br />
Of Course Fruitcake was my "friends" when they found out where the user name came from after I got sick of the shampoo comments... not sure is it better or worst. haha <br />
<br />
Suprisingly Fructus which I like more is starting to be taken on a lot of sites. :(<br />
<br />
==[[User:gizmo|gizmo]]==<br />
My nick came from a combination of thinking gizmo was a pretty cool name due to that little flurry critter in Gremlins and also cns putting me on the spot on Clubs And Socs day when I first joined so that I couldn't think of anything else. Strange, but true.<br />
<br />
==[[User:gary|gary]]==<br />
Well, my original name was garyod and there was wordplay went around with that *cough*gayrod*cough*, so I got it changed to my actual name :)<br />
==[[User:gavin|gavin]]==<br />
I needed a username I wouldn't forget and seeing as Gavin was written on my underpants I decided to use that. Handy quinkadink that it is also my real name eh !<br />
<br />
==[[User:geekity|geekity]]==<br />
Tis from PhD comic, the Thesis arc (a PhD comic take on Matrix) and the character which loosely coincided with Trinity in the Matrix series. It's been my profile on most things for a while, although it was supposed to be geekity2 originally, someone just didn't bother with the 2 when they created my account. <br />
<br />
==[[User:gmblitis|gmblitis]]==<br />
Would've been gamblitis but for those dam restrictions!so the idea came in the first place came from my unhealthy obsession with horses and cards!<br />
<br />
==[[User:greenday|greenday]]==<br />
I was wearing a greenday hoodie and panicked.<br />
<br />
==[[User:gw|gw]]==<br />
They are my initials.<br />
<br />
==[[User:hauk|hauk]]==<br />
Well, I got put on the spot when I first went to play UT in secondary school(We used to play it on the old shitty computers they had, at lunch time). So Dalamar from #intersocs, who was in my school, started to lose the plot with player12, and shouted at player12 to change his/her name. So I tried to think of a good name. And at the time I was reading Stormblade from the Dragonlance series, and Hauk was a ranger in that book. So I eh "temporarily" used the name.. It wasn't meant to stick! But I like it now ^_^<br />
<br />
==[[User:hurl|hurl]]==<br />
My second name is Hurrell and people cant pronouce it so I went by hurl. Turns out Hurrell was originally Hurl, you know, in the old country, so its my family name. No, I dont have a vomit fetish, but I'm always open to new experiences :P<br />
<br />
==[[User:ian|ian]]==<br />
<br />
Its my name JACKASS!<br />
<br />
==[[User:jesjes|jesjes]]==<br />
My name is Jessica. And people from home call me Jesi, and at some stage during sixth year I decided I liked Jess much more. So when I got THE INTERNETS, I just called myself jesjes. It stuck.<br />
<br />
==[[User:johan|johan]]==<br />
<br />
Was given this nick when a German Assistant in Secondary School tried to pronounce my name, Eoghan, and came out with Johan, and it stuck<br />
<br />
==[[User:keloe|keloe]]==<br />
<br />
I wrote down kehoe, my surname and an old nickname, on the slip. However, due to my incapability to write h's correctly, the admins read it as keloe.<br />
<br />
==[[User:koffee|koffee]]==<br />
I was holding a cup of coffee when I signed up after coconut's Ruby talk in first year. I was put on the spot.<br />
also:<br />
<br />
I like coffee, I drink a lot of coffee, I'm known for drinking large amounts of caffeinated beverages. It made sense<br />
<br />
<br />
==[[User:kpodesta|kpodesta]]==<br />
<br />
Because that's my real name. I thought Redbrick was some email yoke - all else fails, I was getting a decent email address.<br />
<br />
==[[User:lil_cain|lil_cain]]==<br />
<br />
Wanted lil_cian, as he is the smaller Cian, it was mistyped.<br />
<br />
At this point, I've grown quite fond of it. Unlike lil_cian, it makes me almost unique on the internet.<br />
<br />
==[[User:lithium|lithium]]==<br />
<br />
Coz I like the sound of it. And coz it goes crazy when you put it in water. And not because of the Nirvana song.<br />
<br />
==[[User:macbain|macbain]]==<br />
He wanted the username 'mcbain' but Karlos (mcbain) got it before him. Being original, Sarv decided that macbain would do instead, so he could forever confuse new users between himself and Karl.<br />
<br />
==[[User:maK|maK]]==<br />
Drugs.<br />
<br />
==[[User:marvin|marvin]]==<br />
There are three references here : Starvin Marvin from South Park, Marvin The Paranoid Android from Hitch Hikers Guide To The Galaxy and Marvin the Martian from the Warner Bros cartoon. I'll leave it to the reader to decide which one was the greatest influence (hint: it wasn't Starvin Marvin).<br />
<br />
==[[User:merchelo|merchelo]]==<br />
On a school trip back when I was young, sitting in an italian hotel, talking to the chef about football, he suddenly asked my name, and he couldn't pronounce my surname, Maxwell, so he decided to italianiase my name, by calling me Roberto Merchello, I thought the name was cool, and started to use it in championship manager, and after registering with the most shittest nick ever, "partyb" I changed it to the 8 char nick, merchelo.<br />
<br />
<br />
==[[User:mephisto|mephisto]]==<br />
Diablo and Baal were taken, and i registered after staggering in to college, having been up about 20 hours straight playing a LAN game of Diablo 2. Also my trademark nickname was too long.<br />
<br />
==[[User:mo|mo]]==<br />
Due to my considerable soccer talent, I was nicknamed "mo" after Mo Johnston, the scottish football hero.<br />
<br />
==[[User:MoJu|MoJu]]==<br />
It's in a similar vein to HoJu(Homer Junior) from the Simpsons. Given to me by a someone on a forum after they saw a picture of me and thought I was someone named Mordeth. So they suggested Mordeth Junior which was then condensed to MoJu. I then adopted it as my second online nick.<br />
<br />
==[[User:montoya|montoya]]==<br />
<br />
The name is that of a character from the book "The Princess Bride" by William Goldman. The specific character is Inigo Montoya, a Spanish swordsman out for revenge against a 6-fingered man who killed Inigo's father.<br />
<br />
==[[User:moridin|moridin]]==<br />
<br />
The most evil and therefore cool character in a series of books that I was reading. Said series of books has since degenerated into a mush of crap writing. Boo.<br />
<br />
==[[User:nanaki|nanaki]]==<br />
<br />
Used the name on forums for a while, first thing that came to mind when signing up. Favourite character from FF7. And no, I didn't use a soft.<br />
<br />
==[[User:nit|niT]]==<br />
Originally my name was a combination of many words that described me, and was dreamt up whilst I was at college in Aylesbury. It all started when I got a demo copy of Diablo from my cousin in Singapore, and us lads built our first LAN at my mate Dave's house. We also played Carmegeddon, the Star Wars game and Quake 2 (of which my mate Dave had a 600mhz processor and TWO 3dfx cards linked up in parallell - he was our God). It was necessary for me to have a character name in Diablo so I chose Nitsuj Buaya Chen, the latter two meaning 'Crocadile man that snaps up ladies' (in Singapore slang) and monkey (as my star sign is golden monkey). I later joined a CS clan called Black Legion and people naturally shortened my name down to nit. At that time I also had a friend who was called 'kippy' in real life and online, so I started using nit in real life too. Later I joined a 'talker' called theManor which was a twin site to the LambdaMoo, there was a guy there who set it all up and went by the nick 'beN', he and girlfriend sadly died in a car accident and so manor spods paid tribute but capitalising the final letter of their nick, hence why I use niT.<br />
<br />
==[[User:noelfitz|noelfitz]]==<br />
<br />
8 letter truncation of my real name (boring but true.)<br />
<br />
==[[User:noodlez|noodlez]]==<br />
<br />
Shorter version of one of my most commonly used user names. I picked that one before when I needed a quick username for an IRC channel and I was eating a bowl of noodles.<br />
<br />
==[[User:orly|orly]]==<br />
<br />
It was my nom de plume for a [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fanzine punk fanzine] I wrote when I was in school. [[User:pooka|pooka]] signed me up for redbrick the first week of college with it as he thought it was my real name ;-)<br />
<br />
==[[User:ornat|ornat]]==<br />
<br />
You'd have to ask my parents that question. Ornat is my real name, and unlike popular belief, no, I am not a guy!<br />
<br />
==[[User:p|p]]==<br />
<br />
Back the old days of IOL/Indigo's IRC servers I used a variety of names, which all began with the letter p. Eventually, I ditched the different nicknames and used ^P^. Redbrick doesn't support weird characters though, so now it's just p. It also happens to be my middle initial.<br />
<br />
==[[User:Paddez|Paddez]]==<br />
Used to use the name Paddee on various other online communities/games, Wanted an Irish sounding name so I settled on the variation of Paddy with 2 E's instead of the Y. When signing up for Redbrick the person who took down my name either misheard me or I said it wrong, whatever the reason i am now an Irish-Mexican that goes by the name of Paddez<br />
<br />
<br />
==[[User:phaxx|phaxx]]==<br />
<br />
Originally from the character Lord Fax in the book [http://www.google.com/search?q=dragonriders+of+pern Dragonriders Of Pern] by Anne McCaffrey. I used Lord_Fax in [http://research.microsoft.com/vwg/projectsheets/comicchat.htm MS Comic Chat] for a while. I saw somebody using a 'ph' instead of an 'f', and thought, in that usual 13-year-old way, OMGZ COOL, and promptly became LordPhaxx. <br />
I was LordPhaxx for a few years, until until around 16 when I met a bunch of other Irish nerds one afternoon. [[User:jerry|jerry]] was among them, and commented, "With a name like LordPhaxx, I expected you to be taller."<br />
<br />
So er, I dropped the pretentious 'Lord', and I've been 'phaxx' ever since.<br />
<br />
See, nothing to do with fax machines! :)<br />
<br />
==[[User:polka|polka]]==<br />
When I was around 16 or so, I had started using "polkabunny" as a username for quite a few things, or a variation of it when it was taken. Before I came to DCU I was on the First Year IRC channel on Quakenet, and eventually got too lazy to write in polkabunny all the time. Shortened it to polka, then just used it when I got to DCU. And now, I prefer polka. (I also like polka dots, but can't dance the actual polka.)<br />
<br />
==[[User:receive|receive]]==<br />
<br />
It was Michelle Smith (swallow) that dragged me along to sign up during first year, so I'd handed over my 4euro before I'd begun to think of a username, so I turned and said "Shit, Michelle, what will I pick?" and she suggested "receive" because it went so well with swallow. Stupidly I agreed, and it stuck (after we found a spell checker to check how to spell it that is), so i never changed it to anything better. Ironically, i never have been at the receiving end of swallows abilities.<br />
<br />
==[[User:r0b|r0b]]==<br />
Rob is my name *shock* *gasp* rob was taken so used r0b instead. Amazing story tbh<br />
<br />
==[[User:robby|robby]]==<br />
<br />
its short for robert...thats cool no?<br />
<br />
==[[User:ru|ru]]==<br />
<br />
I really had no clue what I wanted to have as my username so just picked my most used nick name - ru...short for Ruaidhri...<br />
<br />
==[[User:sadpanda|sadpanda]]==<br />
<br />
Well like everyone, I had to pick on the day so i picked a nickname i had been using for yahoo answers. That account has since been deleted for either calling creationists braindead, redneck, ignorant, arrogant fucks or posting a howtohackwindowsandbel33t.on.nimp.org to a "how do i hack and be cool?". <br />
Those 2 things happened the same week so it could be either. The nickname originally came up a few years after the sexual harassment panda episode but I was watching some westboro baptist church protests (the "god hates fags"/"god hates ireland"/"god hates sweden" people who shocked even fox). There would always be a bigger counter protest than their protest.<br />
One of the counter protesters had on the panda suit and had a sign "Phelps makes me a sad panda". I found that funny and used it for a few sites.<br />
Now looking back on it, I don't find it funny at all. Thank you redbrick article for ruining the way I look at my nickname.<br />
<br />
==[[User:sandman|sandman]]==<br />
<br />
I didn't. It was assigned on the basis that a) I was asleep and b) I read comics, didn't I? Ironically, I hadn't read much Sandman at the time.<br />
<br />
==[[User:scraib|scraib]]==<br />
<br />
I'm from Kilkenny and 'Scráib' is the Irish for 'Cat-Scratch'! 'Tis a very GAA name, but to be honest I could never play hurling so I picked it really cause it sounded cool... <br />
<br />
==[[User:shaun|shaun]]==<br />
<br />
After going through a couple of username changes (previously spike, then dilligaf), I settled on my real name. Mud sticks though, and few people actually use it.<br />
<br />

<br />
It was a character in a book (Illusions by Richard Bach) I read during my formative years. Another rb user thought the description of the protagonist was suited to me so I nabbed the name.<br />
<br />
==[[User:singer|singer]]==<br />
<br />
I was a singer in a band. The guitarist mocked me for being the singer by calling me "singer". The nickname stuck. Non-Redbrick people address me as singer! My 2nd choice username was "scano". <br />

In fact eeh! picked it out during the hay days of eeh gift grub and in fairness now sometimes im a bit of a spanner.<br />
<br />
==[[User:spock|spock]]==<br />
<br />
I chose spock because I had no idea that it would follow me around for at least the next 10 years.<br />
I didn't even know what Redbrick was when I was joining, and when I had a membership form thrust<br />
in my face by Hyper on Freshers day 1996, we had three preferences for username. I put down "spock" as my first preference. It wasn't taken, and that is how I didn't end up with the username "data", or "benji".<br />

<br />
My nick was given to me years before redbrick on irc (irc.phishy.net) I was the first person some americans had met called Dara and they<br />
found that interesting for some reason or other and hence I became thedara.<br />
On redbrick irc i'm known as Darz0re, It was a in-joke at the time when myself and dizer stuck z0re at the end of out names<br />
hence thez0rekorp.com and z0re.org<br />
<br />

==[[User:timelady|timelady]]==<br />
<br />
I was originally known as xmeabhx because that was my name on another site and I was put under pressure on c + s day so I just picked it. When I got sick of it I changed it to timelady because I love doctor who :)<br />

<br />
A God from one of William Blake's epic poems. Thought it sounded epic, so that seemed right.<br />
<br />
==[[User:werdz|werdz]]==<br />
<br />
A long time ago in a net cafe far, far away, a sexy asian friend by the name of quank said "Hey Andrew, stop using the name andrew in CS. Use werdna instead. It's andrew only backwards!" - That lasted about five minutes until people got bored trying to pronounce it ("OMG! WERDNA! QUIT TK'ING YOU NOOB!") and just started shouting werdz instead ("OMG! WERDZ! QUIT TK'ING YOU NOOB!"). And that's my life story up until this point.<br />
<br />
==[[User:wilburt|wilburt]]==<br />
<br />
Long story, guys i used to know named me Wilburtino, i didnt really like it cos they were muppets. However, it grew on me over time. Wanted Wilburtino or Will as my username but they wouldnt let me :( so wilburt was the only one left. Like all rb usernames i think, they are spur of the moment. (or admin mistakes)<br />

[[Category:Community]]</div>Greendayhttps://wiki.redbrick.dcu.ie/index.php?title=Tmux&diff=10827Tmux2016-10-14T22:25:23Z<p>Greenday: </p>
<hr />
<div>Tmux is a terminal multiplexer<br />
<br />
What is a terminal multiplexer? It lets you switch easily between several programs in one terminal, detach them (they keep running in the background) and reattach them to a different terminal.<br />
It is a good alternative to screen.<br />
<br />
==Installation==<br />
$ git clone https://github.com/tmux/tmux.git<br />
$ cd tmux<br />
$ sh autogen.sh<br />
$ ./configure && make<br />
<br />
==Prefix==<br />
Shortcuts are all used by pressing the prefix then the shortcut.<br />
The default is <br />
Control + b <shortcut><br />
<br />
The prefix can also be changed. (At the end of the wiki)<br />
<br />
==Session Management==<br />
<br />
Sessions are useful for completely separating work environments. <br />
<br />
To create a new tmux session named session_name<br />
tmux new -s session_name<br />
To attache to an existing tmux session named session_name<br />
tmux attach -t session_name<br />
To switche to an existing session named session_name<br />
tmux switch -t session_name<br />
To list existing tmux sessions<br />
tmux list-sessions<br />
To detach the currently attached session<br />
tmux detach (prefix + d)<br />
<br />
==Windows==<br />
<br />
Tmux has a tabbed interface, but it calls its tabs “Windows”. To stay organized, I rename all the windows I use. (Well I don't because I guess I hate myself.<br />
<br />
To create a new window<br />
tmux new-window (prefix + c)<br />
To move to the window based on index<br />
tmux select-window -t :0-9 (prefix + 0-9)<br />
To rename the current window<br />
tmux rename-window (prefix + ,)<br />
<br />
==Panes==<br />
<br />
Panes make everything easier, and better!<br />
<br />
splits the window into two vertical panes<br />
tmux split-window (prefix + ")<br />
splits the window into two horizontal panes<br />
tmux split-window -h (prefix + %)<br />
swaps pane with another in the specified direction<br />
tmux swap-pane -[UDLR] (prefix + { or })<br />
selects the next pane in the specified direction<br />
tmux select-pane -[UDLR]<br />
selects the next pane in numerical order<br />
tmux select-pane -t :.+<br />
<br />
==Helpful tmux commands==<br />
<br />
lists out every bound key and the tmux command it runs<br />
tmux list-keys<br />
lists out every tmux command and its arguments<br />
tmux list-commands<br />
lists out every session, window, pane, its pid, etc.<br />
tmux info<br />
reloads the current tmux configuration (based on a default tmux config)<br />
tmux source-file ~/.tmux.conf<br />
<br />
==Helpful Configs==<br />
<br />
These are some tmux configs:<br />
<br />
nano .tmux.conf<br />
<br />
Remap prefix to Control + a<br />
set -g prefix C-a<br />
unbind C-b<br />
bind C-a send-prefix<br />
<br />
Force a reload of the config file<br />
unbind r<br />
bind r source-file ~/.tmux.conf<br />
<br />
Quick pane cycling<br />
unbind ^A<br />
bind ^A select-pane -t :.+</div>Greendayhttps://wiki.redbrick.dcu.ie/index.php?title=Tmux&diff=10826Tmux2016-10-14T21:38:03Z<p>Greenday: How to install and use tmux</p>
<hr />
<div>Once upon a time there was BitchX. Then there was Irssi. Now there is Weechat. More and more people are switching over to Weechat from Irssi, probably coz the colours make IRC easier to read and follow. Problem is, for the Irssi user, Weechat may be a tad confusing.<br />
<br />
Weechat documentation can be tricky to follow, so this page is an attempt to make simple those bizarre and abstract commands.<br />
<br />
== Running Weechat ==<br />
<br />
Dregin is a big Weechat fanboi. And as such, he has his own special builds designed for Redbrick. Azazel is the current login machine, dregin has compiled a version of Weechat that runs on azazel:<br />
<br />
/home/associat/d/dregin/root_azazel/bin/weechat-curses<br />
<br />
Copy and paste that into your terminal command line, hit enter, and give yourself a pat on the back.<br />
<br />
== Compiling Weechat ==<br />
You can run <br />
~edu/compileweechat<br />
This is only recommended for running it the first time as it will overwrite your weechat config.<br />
If You want to update your install just run <br />
~edu/updateweechat<br />
or <br />
git clone https://github.com/weechat/weechat<br />
cd weechat<br />
mkdir build<br />
cd build<br />
cmake .. -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=$HOME -DENABLE_NLS=OFF<br />
make<br />
make install<br />
echo '*/upgrade ~/bin/weechat' > `find ~/.weechat -name "weechat_fifo_*"`<br />
rm -rf ~/weechat<br />
<br />
==Customising Weechat ==<br />
Weechat can be very basic when you first run it so here are some conf files to set it up with.<br />
cp ~edu/wcconf/* ~/.weechat/ <br />
you need to set your nick for the server<br />
vim ~/.weechat/irc.conf<br />
change “nicks” field to your username<br />
<br />
If you ran the ~edu/compileweechat this will already have been done for you<br />
<br />
== Basic use ==<br />
<br />
=== Connecting to a server and channel ===<br />
<br />
When you hit 'chat' on Redbrick, you start Irssi, you're automatically connected to a server, then you're joined to Redbrick's #lobby. This all happens behind the scenes, and with Weechat, you need to do this manually. Fear not: it's easy.<br />
<br />
When you start Weechat, you won't get connected to a server or channel. To connect to Redbrick's IRC sever, type:<br />
<br />
/connect irc.redbrick.dcu.ie<br />
<br />
Then to join #lobby:<br />
<br />
/join #lobby<br />
<br />
As well as showing you how IRC clients (such as Weechat or Irssi or whatever) connect to stuff, this should also show you how to connect to other servers and channels outside of Redbrick.<br />
<br />
To connect to any server, simply enter /connect <server_address>. You will probably be greeted with various messages and such from that server. To join a channel on that server, just type /join <channel_name>.<br />
<br />
=== Navigation ===<br />
<br />
Like Irssi, you can move between windows/buffers using Alt+<num>. You can also type /buffer <num> (similar to /win <num> in Irssi).<br />
Unlike irssi you can do Alt+j then <num> to change to a number greater the 10 .<br />
<br />
F5 and F6 move to the preceding and succeeding buffer, respectively.<br />
<br />
You can move buffers (chat windows) with /buffer move. In a channel, type:<br />
<br />
/buffer move <num><br />
<br />
(where <num> is any number you want). That channel is now accessible at Alt+<num><br />
<br />
=== Changing between servers ===<br />
<br />
Weechat will generally assume that whatever channel you're in, that's also the server you're operating on. So you can chat away as you wish and issue general commands.<br />
<br />
However, for some commands, you will need to let Weechat know what server you're on.<br />
<br />
Hit Alt+1. This will bring you to your status window. Along the bottom you will see the time, number of channels, the server you're connect to, as well as other channel stuff.<br />
<br />
Press Ctrl+x. If you're connected to multiple servers, the ''server'' section will change, telling you which server Weechat is connect to. So now you can issue commands to that server (such as /nick) without affecting other servers.<br />
<br />
For example, I am currently connected to irc.redbrick.dcu.ie and to irc.starchat.net. If I hit Ctrl-x I can switch to StarChat, and change my nickname there without it affecting Redbrick's IRC.<br />
<br />
== Mobile ==<br />
<br />
weechat has a mobile app you can get from the [https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ubergeek42.WeechatAndroid google play store] or from the [https://github.com/ubergeek42/weechat-android github].<br />
Before we set up the app we need to go too weechat on the terminal and type in:<br />
/relay add weechat 1337<br />
then we need to set the password <br />
/set relay.network.password "your-secret-password"<br />
<br />
now on the Phone launch the app and in settings<br />
In connection settings <br />
Relay host: localhost<br />
Relay Port: 1337 (choose your own port) <br />
Relay password: your-secret-password<br />
Connect type: SSH tunnel<br />
then in SSH Tunnel settings<br />
SSH host: redbrick.dcu.ie<br />
SSH username: your username<br />
SSH port: 22<br />
if you have an ssh key add the route to the key on your phone in SSH Private key file and put the passphrase in the SSH password/key passphrase box, if you dont just put your password in there<br />
<br />
== Special commands ==<br />
<br />
=== Keybinds ===<br />
<br />
Keybinds are handy, especially if you have over 10 channels open. I use Alt+<num> to get to channels, but clearly this only works from 1 up to 0 (on a keyboard). So for channels in higher numbers, you can ''bind'' keys: i.e. Alt+q gets me to channel 11; Alt+y gets me to channel 16.<br />
<br />
/key bind meta-q /buffer 11<br />
<br />
"Key" and "bind" are self-explanatory. "Meta" is Weechat's word for Alt (so meta-q is the same as Alt+q). /buffer 11 is the command that's executed once meta-q (Alt-q) is typed.<br />
<br />
You can build up these to meta-w, meta-e, meta-r for buffer 2, buffer 3, buffer 4, etc etc.<br />
<br />
Of course, you can bind any key combo to any weechat command; it's not necessary to make them Alt+<num> commands.<br />
<br />
'''Note:''' Watch out for caps lock if you're keybinding. If you bind Alt+y to a command, Alt+Y won't work (unless you bind that separately). If you find your binds aren't working, check your caps.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
== Triggers ==<br />
<br />
Triggers are the swiss army knife of weechat. They can replace a '''lot''' of scripts, and we're still finding things to turn into trigger<br />
<br />
=== Turn any line with "nsfw" in it bright red ===<br />
/trigger addreplace nsfw modifier weechat_print "${tg_notify} && ${tg_message_nocolor} =~ .*nsfw.*" "/(.*)/${tg_prefix}\t${color:red}!NSFW! ${tg_message}"<br />
=== Make urls underlined and blue ===<br />
/trigger addreplace url_color modifier "weechat_print" "${tg_tags} !~ irc_quit" ";[a-z]+://\S+;${color:32}${color:underline}${re:0}${color:-underline}${color:reset};" ""<br />
===Strip items such as time from screen on smaller screens ===<br />
/trigger addreplace resize_small_timestamp signal signal_sigwinch "${info:term_width} < 200" "" "/set weechat.look.buffer_time_format \"\""<br />
===add items such as time from screen on bigger screens ===<br />
/trigger addreplace resize_big_timestamp signal signal_sigwinch "${info:term_width} >=200" "" "/set weechat.look.buffer_time_format %H:%M:%S "<br />
<br />
=== turn off nicklist on smaller screens ===<br />
/trigger addreplace resize_big signal signal_sigwinch "${info:term_width} >= 100" "" "/bar show nicklist"<br />
/trigger addreplace resize_small signal signal_sigwinch "${info:term_width} < 100" "" "/bar hide nicklist"<br />
=== turn off buffer list on small screens ===<br />
/trigger addreplace resize_small_buffer signal signal_sigwinch "${info:term_width} < 100" "" "/bar hide buffers"<br />
/trigger addreplace resize_big_buffer signal signal_sigwinch "${info:term_width} >= 100" "" "/bar show buffers"<br />
<br />
==Conditions==<br />
<br />
Conditions can be used to customize weechat depending on certain variables<br />
<br />
===Turn off nicklist on small windows===<br />
/set weechat.bar.nicklist.conditions "${nicklist} && (${window.win_width} > 100 || ${buffer.full_name} == irc.bitlbee.&bitlbee)"<br />
<br />
===Hide buffer list on small terminals===<br />
/set weechat.bar.buffers.conditions "${info:term_width} > 100"<br />
<br />
===Turn off status on nonactive windows ===<br />
/set weechat.bar.status.conditions "${active}"<br />
<br />
== Spell Checker ==<br />
<br />
Weechat uses a handy aspell plugin to check your spelling. To enable it, either use iset or use<br />
/set aspell.check.enabled on<br />
<br />
Aspell has a few settings which you may find useful<br />
<br />
/set aspell.check.real_time on<br />
/set aspell.check.word_min_length 2<br />
/set aspell.check.default_dict "en"<br />
/set aspell.check.suggestions 3<br />
<br />
Or alternatively if you use iset, search for aspell<br />
<br />
The aspell plugin can also offer suggestions as of 0.4.0 and it can be added as an item to your status bar. The item should be added to weechat.bar.status.items. For instance:<br />
/set weechat.bar.status.items "time |,buffer_number+:buffer_name+(buffer_modes)+ |,buffer_nicklist_count |,hotlist |,[aspell_suggest]</div>Greenday
