Prelude ERC Quickstart

Customizing Server list

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 in your personal config

(setq my-fav-irc '( "irc.freenode.net"
                    "irc.oftc.net"
                    "irc.mozilla.org"
                    "irc.gnome.org"))

Customizing Last Quit Message

If you want to customize your IRC Last Quit Message from Asta la vista to something more funkier, please redefine bye-irc-message as follows

(setq bye-erc-message "adios")

Reading NickServ passwords from auth-source plugin

If you want to automatically authenticate while logging into IRC servers set the erc-prompt-for-password to nil as follows

(setq erc-prompt-for-password nil)

Now you can set password in plaintext in .authinfo file in the netRC format or you it encrypted in .authinfo.gpg file after setting up gpg in emacs
