## Opening all ERC buffers in a new perspective
Many a time when we start IRC with the `start-irc` command, all the
channels open in our existing workspace, which can be annoying to
some; especially to those who like to organize their buffers into
separate groups (perspectives). To avoid this scenario, it is better
to group all the ERC buffers into one perspective called `IRC` when
`start-irc` is called. To enable this set the `prelude-new-irc-persp`
variable to true as follows
``` emacs-lisp
(setq prelude-new-irc-persp t)
```
