 # Prelude ERC
 
+ERC is a popular IRC client bundled with Emacs.
+ERC is both powerful and complex, that's why Prelude bundles
+some configuration for it, together with a few handy commands
+like `start-irc` and `stop-irc`.

 If you want to join a list of servers on `M-x start-irc`, other than
 the default list, please redefine the variable `my-fav-irc` as follows

 ## 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`
