Irssi

Turns out I've been known (at time of writing, largely to myself only) to poke at irssi. This page has info about that.

Themes

Tumbleweed

It's what I call my personal theme to anything really, and perhaps deserves it's own page on this wiki one day. The irssi theme uses unicode characters to reduce verbosity. (eg: ⇉ and ∈ for joins, ⇇ and ∉ for parts, ☠ for quits, ± for mode changes... )

Scripts

antisboops

This script was originally by rasher. "anti scrollback oops" prevents you from submitting to a window if you're reviewing the window history. "/" commands aren't blocked, and regular chat can also can be overruled by a double-tap on the enter key.

My addition adds a statusbar item to indicate the scrollback ("page upped" :) status.

Future idealism is that it could grow to replace the built-in "more" as well.

Misc
