-HexChat Frequently Asked Questions

-==================================

-

-Using HexChat.

---------------

-

-### How do I autoconnect and join a channel when HexChat loads?

-

-In the Network list select the Network you want to auto-connect to and

-click Edit and turn ON the "Auto connect to this network at startup"

-checkbox.

-

-List channels in the favorites list to join them on connect.

-

-

-### Why does HexChat join channels before identifying?

-

-When using the nickserv password HexChat waits a short time before joining.

-To change this value (which is in seconds) by running:

->   /set irc\_join\_delay number

-

-The other option is SASL which is network dependant and can be enabled in the Network list (2.9.4+).

-

-

-### How do I connect through a proxy?

-

-Go to the menus, *Settings* -> *Preferences* -> *Network Setup* and fill in

-the requested information there. Authentication (using a username and

-password) is only supported for HTTP and Socks5.

-

-

-### How do I show @ and + in front of nicknames that are Op and Voice when they talk?

-

-To display @ and + characters next to nicknames as they talk, do the

-following:

-

-In the menus, open up Settings -> Text Events. Find the

-*Channel Message* event in the list. The $3 code can be inserted to

-print the user's mode-character (e.g. @ or +). For example, you might

-want to change the default:

-

->   %C18%H<%H$4$1%H>%H%O$t$2

-

-To

-

->   %C18%H<%H$4$3$1%H>%H%O$t$2 

-

-Don't forget to **press Enter**, so the changes take effect in the list at

-the top of the window.

-

-

-### How do I change the Op and Voice userlist icons and Tree View icons?

-

-You can override the default icons by placing PNG files with the names listed below in

-the specified directory.

-

-#### Files

-

-**userlist:**

-

->   - op.png

->   - hop.png

->   - voice.png

->   - red.png *(1 level above op)*

->   - purple.png  *(2 levels above op)*

-

-**channeltree:**

-

->   - server.png

->   - channel.png

->   - dialog.png

->   - util.png *(Channel List, DCC, etc (if enabled as tabs))*

-

-**tray:**

-

->   - message.png

->   - highlight.png

->   - fileoffer.png

->   - hexchat.png

-

-#### Locations

-

-You will need to create the directory.

-

-* Unix/Linux

-

->   ~/.config/hexchat/icons

-

-* Windows

-

->   %APPDATA%\\HexChat\\icons

-

-You can hide either of them in Preferences.

-

-

-### How do I set different ban types?

-

-1. Right click the nickname in the userlist, and choose a ban type from the "Kick/Ban" submenu.

-2. You can also do it manually:

-    >   /ban nick bantype where the bantype is a number from 0 to 3.

-3. Or set the default with:

-

-    >   /set irc\_ban\_type bantype sets the default ban type to use for all bans. The different types are:

-    >

-    >   -   0 = \*!*@*.host

-    >   -   1 = \*!*@domain

-    >   -   2 = \*!*user@*.host

-    >   -   3 = \*!*user@domain

-

-### Why does the timestamp overlap some nicknames?

-

-Some networks allow very long nicknames (up to 32 letters). It can be

-annoying to have the separator bar move too far to the right, just for

-one long nick. Therefore, it has a set limit for the distance it will

-move to the right. If you use a large font, you may need to adjust this

-distance. It is set in pixels, for example:

-

->   /set text\_max\_indent 320

-

-Once you adjust this setting high enough, overlapping timestamps and

-nicknames should not occur. The adjustment will not take effect

-immediately, a restart may be needed.

-

-### How do I turn on Conference mode where I will not see join or part messages?

-

-Right-click on the tab you want to change. In the submenu of the channel

-name, there's a toggle-item "Show join/part messages", simply turn this

-off.

-

-If you want to turn this option on globally go to *Preferences* -> *Advanced*

-

-Then all channels you join **after** setting this will start with "Show

-join/part messages" turned off.

-

-

-### Why doesn't DCC send work behind a router (IPNat/ADSL)?

-

-If you are behind a IP-NAT or ADSL router, you will most likely have an

-address like 192.168.0.1. This address is not usable on the Internet,

-and must be translated.

-

-When offering a DCC file, HexChat will tell the receiver your address.

-If it says 192.168.0.1, the receiver will not be able to connect. One

-way to make it send your "real" address is to enable the "Get my IP from

-IRC Server" option in HexChat. This option is available in Preferences

--> File Transfers. When you turn it ON, you will have to re-login to

-the server before it'll take effect.

-

-You will also need to forward some ports for use in DCC send. You may

-pick almost any port range you wish, for example, in HexChat set:

-

->   First DCC send port: 4990

->   Last DCC send port: 5000

-

-This will allow you to send up to ten files at the same time, which

-should be plenty for most people. Lastly, configure your router/modem to

-forward ports 4990-5000 to your PC's address. You'll have to consult

-your router/modem's manual on how to do this.

-

-

-### How do I execute multiple commands in one line?

-

-There are three ways to do this:

-

--   /LOAD -e <textfile>, where <textfile> is a full pathname to a

-    file containing commands on each line.

-

--   Separate your commands with CTRL-SHIFT-u-a. This will appear as

-     a little box with numbers onit.

-

--   You can create two UserCommands, with the same name, and then

-    execute the UserCommand. It will be executed in the same order as

-    it's written in the UserCommands GUI.

-

-

-### I get this error: "Unknown file type abc.yz. Maybe you need to install the Perl or Python plugin?"

-

-If you get this error when trying to load a Perl or Python script, it

-means the plugin for running those scripts isn't loaded.

-

--   The Perl, Python and TCL plugins come with HexChat in the same

-    archive.

--   During ./configure, it will check for Perl, Python and TCL libs and

-    headers, you should check if it failed there.

--   The plugins directory can be found by issuing the shell command

-    >   hexchat -p

-

--   All *.so files are auto-loaded at startup (*.dll on Windows).

--   If you downloaded a binary package, maybe the packager decided to

-    exclude the Perl or Python plugins.

-

-

-### How do I play sound files on certain events?

-

-In the menus, go to: *Settings* -> *Preferences* -> *Sound*. Select the event

-you want to make a sound on, then type in a sound filename (or use the

-Browse button).

-

-

-### How do I auto-load scripts at startup?

-

-The root of your HexChat config is:

-

--   Windows: %APPDATA%\\HexChat

--   Unix/Linux: ~/.config/hexchat

-

-

-Referred to as config from now. HexChat automatically loads, at startup:

-

->   - config/addons/*.lua Lua scripts

->   - config/addons/*.pl Perl scripts

->   - config/addons/*.py Python scripts

->   - config/addons/*.tcl Tcl scripts

->   - config/addons/*.dll Plugins (Windows)

->   - config/addons/*.so Plugins (Unix)

-

-The addons dir may need to be created.

-

-### How do I minimize HexChat to the System Tray (Notification Area)?

-

-On both Unix and Windows there is an included tray plugin.

-To enable minimizing to tray on exit:

-

->   /set gui\_tray\_flags -on 1

-

-For minimizing to tray on minimize:

-

->   /set gui\_tray\_flags -on 4 *(use -off to disable)*

-

-Alerts for this tray are in *Preferences* -> *Alerts*

-

-The other option is Windows only, called HexTray. It is included with the installer.

-Right click on the tray icon for its options.

-

-

-### Where are the log files saved to?

-

-* Unix/Linux

-

-> ~/.config/hexchat/logs

-

-* Windows

-

-> %APPDATA%\\HexChat\\logs

-

-

-### How do I rotate log files every so often?

-

-By default settings, no rotation occurs, your log files will just keep getting larger.

-

-Go to *Settings* -> *Preferences* -> *Logging* and change the log filename to any one of these:

-

->   %Y-%m-%d/%n-%c.log ->2006-12-30/FreeNode-\#channel.log

->

->   %n/%Y-%m-%d/%c.log ->FreeNode/2006-12-30/\#channel.log

->

->   %n/%c.log -> FreeNode/\#channel.log (no rotation)

-

-%Y, %m and %d represents the current year, month and day respectively.

-%n is the network name, e.g. "FreeNode" or "UnderNet", and finally, %c

-is the channel. In these examples, a new log filename and folder would

-be created after midnight.

-

- You can find more possibilities at

-[http://xchat.org/docs/log/](http://xchat.org/docs/log/).

-

-### Where did the Real Name field go?

-

-The real name field is now removed from the Network List. This is in

-order to avoid alienating newcomers (some might be afraid of their

-personal data).

-

-The network-specific real name can still be set via the GUI. If you want

-to modify the global real name, just issue the following command:

-

->   /set irc\_real\_name Stewie Griffin

-

-

-### How do I migrate my settings from XChat?

-

-* UNIX/Linux

-

->   1. Copy ~/.xchat2 to ~/.config/hexchat

->   2. Rename ~/.config/hexchat/xchat.conf to ~/.config/hexchat/hexchat.conf

->   3. Rename ~/.config/hexchat/xchatlogs to ~/.config/hexchat/logs

->   4. Move all your 3rd party addons to ~/.config/hexchat/addons

->   5. Rename ~/.config/hexchat/plugin\_\*.conf to ~/.config/hexchat/addon\_\*.conf

-

-* Windows

-

->   1. Copy *%APPDATA%\\X-Chat 2 to %APPDATA%\\HexChat

->   2. Rename *%APPDATA%\\HexChat\\xchat.conf to %APPDATA%\\HexChat\\hexchat.conf

->   3. Rename *%APPDATA%\\HexChat\\xchatlogs to %APPDATA%\\HexChat\\logs

->   4. Move all your 3rd party addons to %APPDATA%\\HexChat\\addons

->   5. Rename *%APPDATA%\\HexChat\\plugin\_\*.conf to %APPDATA%\\HexChat\\addon\_\*.conf

-

-Contributions, Development and Bugs.

-------------------------------------

-

-### I found a bug, what can I do?

-

-Firstly, make sure it's the latest stable version of HexChat.

-

-If you still experience issues, you can search for the issue on

-[Github](https://github.com/hexchat/hexchat/issues?state=open)

-if it has not been reported open an issue with as much detail as possible.

-

-

-### Can I write a new language translation for HexChat?

-

-You sure can, but I don't accept translations directly. They must be

-done through the [Transifex

-Project](https://www.transifex.com/projects/p/hexchat/). Bear in mind

-that the email address with which you register on Transifex will be

-visible in the translation files.

+name, there's a toggle-item "Show join/part messages", simply turn this
+off.
+
+If you want to turn this option on globally go to *Preferences* -> *Advanced*
+
+Then all channels you join **after** setting this will start with "Show
+join/part messages" turned off.
+
+
+### Why doesn't DCC send work behind a router (IPNat/ADSL)?
+
+If you are behind a IP-NAT or ADSL router, you will most likely have an
+address like 192.168.0.1. This address is not usable on the Internet,
+and must be translated.
+
+When offering a DCC file, HexChat will tell the receiver your address.
+If it says 192.168.0.1, the receiver will not be able to connect. One
+way to make it send your "real" address is to enable the "Get my IP from
+IRC Server" option in HexChat. This option is available in Preferences
+-> File Transfers. When you turn it ON, you will have to re-login to
+the server before it'll take effect.
+
+You will also need to forward some ports for use in DCC send. You may
+pick almost any port range you wish, for example, in HexChat set:
+
+>   First DCC send port: 4990
+>   Last DCC send port: 5000
+
+This will allow you to send up to ten files at the same time, which
+should be plenty for most people. Lastly, configure your router/modem to
+forward ports 4990-5000 to your PC's address. You'll have to consult
+your router/modem's manual on how to do this.
+
+
+### How do I execute multiple commands in one line?
+
+There are three ways to do this:
+
+-   /LOAD -e <textfile>, where <textfile> is a full pathname to a
+    file containing commands on each line.
+
+-   Separate your commands with CTRL-SHIFT-u-a. This will appear as
+     a little box with numbers onit.
+
+-   You can create two UserCommands, with the same name, and then
+    execute the UserCommand. It will be executed in the same order as
+    it's written in the UserCommands GUI.
+
+
+### I get this error: "Unknown file type abc.yz. Maybe you need to install the Perl or Python plugin?"
+
+If you get this error when trying to load a Perl or Python script, it
+means the plugin for running those scripts isn't loaded.
+
+-   The Perl, Python and TCL plugins come with HexChat in the same
+    archive.
+-   During ./configure, it will check for Perl, Python and TCL libs and
+    headers, you should check if it failed there.
+-   The plugins directory can be found by issuing the shell command
+    >   hexchat -p
+
+-   All *.so files are auto-loaded at startup (*.dll on Windows).
+-   If you downloaded a binary package, maybe the packager decided to
+    exclude the Perl or Python plugins.
+
+
+### How do I play sound files on certain events?
+
+In the menus, go to: *Settings* -> *Preferences* -> *Sound*. Select the event
+you want to make a sound on, then type in a sound filename (or use the
+Browse button).
+
+
+### How do I auto-load scripts at startup?
+
+The root of your HexChat config is:
+
+-   Windows: %APPDATA%\\HexChat
+-   Unix/Linux: ~/.config/hexchat
+
+
+Referred to as config from now. HexChat automatically loads, at startup:
+
+>   - config/addons/*.lua Lua scripts
+>   - config/addons/*.pl Perl scripts
+>   - config/addons/*.py Python scripts
+>   - config/addons/*.tcl Tcl scripts
+>   - config/addons/*.dll Plugins (Windows)
+>   - config/addons/*.so Plugins (Unix)
+
+The addons dir may need to be created.
+
+### How do I minimize HexChat to the System Tray (Notification Area)?
+
+On both Unix and Windows there is an included tray plugin.
+To enable minimizing to tray on exit:
+
+>   /set gui\_tray\_flags -on 1
+
+For minimizing to tray on minimize:
+
+>   /set gui\_tray\_flags -on 4 *(use -off to disable)*
+
+Alerts for this tray are in *Preferences* -> *Alerts*
+
+The other option is Windows only, called HexTray. It is included with the installer.
+Right click on the tray icon for its options.
+
+
+### Where are the log files saved to?
+
+* Unix/Linux
+
+> ~/.config/hexchat/logs
+
+* Windows
+
+> %APPDATA%\\HexChat\\logs
+
+
+### How do I rotate log files every so often?
+
+By default settings, no rotation occurs, your log files will just keep getting larger.
+
+Go to *Settings* -> *Preferences* -> *Logging* and change the log filename to any one of these:
+
+>   %Y-%m-%d/%n-%c.log ->2006-12-30/FreeNode-\#channel.log
+>
+>   %n/%Y-%m-%d/%c.log ->FreeNode/2006-12-30/\#channel.log
+>
+>   %n/%c.log -> FreeNode/\#channel.log (no rotation)
+
+%Y, %m and %d represents the current year, month and day respectively.
+%n is the network name, e.g. "FreeNode" or "UnderNet", and finally, %c
+is the channel. In these examples, a new log filename and folder would
+be created after midnight.
+
+ You can find more possibilities at
+[http://xchat.org/docs/log/](http://xchat.org/docs/log/).
+
+### Where did the Real Name field go?
+
+The real name field is now removed from the Network List. This is in
+order to avoid alienating newcomers (some might be afraid of their
+personal data).
+
+The network-specific real name can still be set via the GUI. If you want
+to modify the global real name, just issue the following command:
+
+>   /set irc\_real\_name Stewie Griffin
+
+
+### How do I migrate my settings from XChat?
+
+* UNIX/Linux
+
+>   1. Copy ~/.xchat2 to ~/.config/hexchat
+>   2. Rename ~/.config/hexchat/xchat.conf to ~/.config/hexchat/hexchat.conf
+>   3. Rename ~/.config/hexchat/xchatlogs to ~/.config/hexchat/logs
+>   4. Move all your 3rd party addons to ~/.config/hexchat/addons
+>   5. Rename ~/.config/hexchat/plugin\_\*.conf to ~/.config/hexchat/addon\_\*.conf
+
+* Windows
+
+>   1. Copy *%APPDATA%\\X-Chat 2 to %APPDATA%\\HexChat
+>   2. Rename *%APPDATA%\\HexChat\\xchat.conf to %APPDATA%\\HexChat\\hexchat.conf
+>   3. Rename *%APPDATA%\\HexChat\\xchatlogs to %APPDATA%\\HexChat\\logs
+>   4. Move all your 3rd party addons to %APPDATA%\\HexChat\\addons
+>   5. Rename *%APPDATA%\\HexChat\\plugin\_\*.conf to %APPDATA%\\HexChat\\addon\_\*.conf

+
+### I found a bug, what can I do?
+
+Firstly, make sure it's the latest stable version of HexChat.
+
+If you still experience issues, you can search for the issue on
+[Github](https://github.com/hexchat/hexchat/issues?state=open)
+if it has not been reported open an issue with as much detail as possible.
+
+
+### Can I write a new language translation for HexChat?
+
+You sure can, but I don't accept translations directly. They must be
+done through the [Transifex
+Project](https://www.transifex.com/projects/p/hexchat/). Bear in mind
+that the email address with which you register on Transifex will be
+visible in the translation files.
