Better IRC support

July 8, 2009 at 7:43 pm | Posted in Spectrum | 1 Comment

There was an annoying limitation when you used IRC network with Jabbim Transport. You could connect to only one network from one JID. I’ve fixed it today ;) . Registration is now disabled and you are automatically connected to IRC network when you join for example room #channel%irc.freenode.net@irc.jabbim.cz (btw, It would be cool to have something like Gateway Interaction for rooms, to generate Jabber ID from channel name…). As you can see, the username part of JID is diveded into channel name and server hostname.

The transport just now supports only networks which use standard ports and have no password set. If you join another channel on the same network, the old connection will be used. If you join the channel on different network, new connection (PurpleAccount) will be created. If you disconnect from all channels, the connection is closed and the PurpleAccount is deleted.

I plan to add Ad-Hoc command and PurpleCmd (probably something like “/transport nickserver <name> <password>”) for people who want to identify themselves automatically with NickServ.

  1. Do you have any idea on how to add Group Chats to gmail chat or IMO.im ?
