Summary

Connect to an IRC server and chat from a full-screen OpenComputers terminal client.

Availability

  • Repository: opencomputers
  • System: opencomputers
  • Type: command

Source

  • OpenComputers/src\main\resources\assets\opencomputers\loot\irc\usr\bin\irc.lua

Syntax

irc NICKNAME [SERVER[:PORT]]

Purpose

Open a TCP connection through the internet card, register the provided nickname, display server traffic in a scrolling full-screen interface, keep the last terminal line for user input, and translate common slash commands into IRC protocol messages.

Parameters

  • NICKNAME: Nickname sent in the initial NICK and USER registration commands.
  • SERVER[:PORT]: Optional IRC server address. Defaults to irc.esper.net:6667.

Options

  • --motd: Display the server MOTD lines instead of suppressing them.

Examples

irc mynick

Connect to the default server with nickname mynick.

irc mynick irc.libera.chat:6667

Connect to a specific IRC server and port.

Notes

  • Interactive slash commands implemented in the client include /msg, /join, /me, /lua, and raw IRC commands entered as /COMMAND ....
  • The client beeps when an incoming message text contains your current nickname.
