Red means that someone has said something + to you. + ++ ChatZilla will automatically highlight phrases that contain your nickname. + ++ You can add to the list of words that cause messages to be highlighted with + the /stalk command. You can remove words from the list with the /unstalk + command. + ++ You can quickly switch to another view using the function keys. F1 will + switch to the first view, F2 to the second, etc. + ++ You can turn off the userlist, statusbar, and/or view tabs using the + File->Options menu. + ++ You can see a list of commands by typing /commands. + ++ You can get help on any command by typing /help <command-name>. + ++ You can delete any view with the /delete command. Once deleted, the text from + that view will be lost. Deleteing a channel view is not the same as leaving + the channel. You will still be a member of the channel if you only /delete it. + It will reappear (without the previous contents) the next time activity occurs. + ++ You can remove a channel or query view from the tab list without dropping its + contents. The /hide command will remove the view's tab, but keep the contents. + The next time something happens on that view, it will re-appear with the + previous text still intact. + ++ You can recover deleted or hidden views. To recover a deleted *client* view, + use /client. To recover a network view use the /attach command, to recover + channel view use /join, and to recover a query view use /query. + +The cool commands... + ++ /networks will display the list of networks as a list of clickable links. + ++ /status will show your connection status. If you use /status from a channel, + you'll get information about the network and server you are connected to, + including connection duration, and last ping and lag (if available.) You will + also get status on the channel you are viewing, including number of operators, + number voiced, and topic. + + Using /status from a network view will give you information on every channel + you are connected to. + + Using /status from the *client* view will give you information on every network + you are connected to, as well as every channel on that network. + ++ /disconnect can be used to disconnect from a network without quitting + ChatZilla. This can be useful if you are attached to more than one network + but want to leave only one of them. + +The more advanced stuff... + ++ The input area can be switched to multiline mode by pressing [CTRL]+[UP]. + Press [CTRL]+[ENTER] to sent the text to the server. In multiline mode, + the text you type not scanned for commands, so stray / characters will not + affect your post. To return to single line mode, press [CRTL]+[DOWN]. + ++ The place where messages appear can be styled to your own taste, if you + know a little css <http://www.htmlhelp.org/reference/css/>. See the comment + at the top of <http://lxr.mozilla.org/mozilla/source/extensions/irc/xul/skin/output-default.css> + for details. + ++ You can manually bookmark an irc channel by creating a new irc:// bookmark. + From the "Manage bookmarks" window, create a new bookmark and enter + "irc://moznet/chatzilla", to bookmark the #chatzilla channel, for example. + You can also use a server name, as in "irc://irc.mcs.com/javascript". + ++ irc:// urls work from normal web pages as well. You can link to your + irc channel from you home page. See + <http://www.w3.org/Addressing/draft-mirashi-url-irc-01.txt> for a description + of irc:// urls. + ++ Turning off File->Options->Enable Smileys actually turns off all of the text + matching rules, including link detection, and bold/underline/italic. It will + also disable the part of ChatZilla that makes it possible to break long words + (ie, you'll end up with a horizontal scrollbar eventually.) This + option was added back when a few bugs in the JavaScript engine caused the + text matching rules to do Bad Things. You probably don't really want to turn + this off. |
