WeeChat spell suggestions
[ link: weechat-spell-suggestions | tags: weechat irc | updated: Sat, 05 Jan 2008 13:37:34 ]
I recently decided to give WeeChat a try. I found that it had a nice new feel and less complicated windowing structure then irssi -- at least more intuitive to a vim user.
Here is my weechat config.
On debian you can install it with
apt-get install weechat-curses weechat-scripts weechat-plugins
I really liked the spell-checking plugin which uses aspell to highlight misspelled words as
I type them. One thing I missed was the ability to tab complete words from the
/usr/share/words list. So I wrote a short lua script to do it...

I was indirectly pointed to these docs on irssi...
IRC over email gateway

12:47 <@ bartman> hey, you know what would be cool... if you could ahve an
email-to-irc proxy
12:48 < muffy> bartman: Please explain why that would be cool.
12:48 <@ bartman> then people, like Tyler, who have opprisive French overlords could use irc by just emailing a bot
12:48 <@ bartman> ofcourse IP-over-email sould be even cooler
12:49 < muffy> But how would Tyler receive messages? One email per message would be too much I would think.
12:59 < steve> the bot could send (digest) messages to respective users
when their username appears in the line
12:59 <@ bartman> nod
13:00 <@ bartman> queue up for a few seconds/minutes and then purge in one
email
13:00 <@ bartman> even private conversations could be maintained bu using the
Reply-To: tag
13:00 < muffy> I suppose. But that takes them out of the general
conversations. I would think queueing up and sending every
few minutes might be better.
13:01 < steve> i still like my way, send iff their username appears in the
line
13:01 < steve> so long as everyone "plays nice" and addresses it to them,
they get messages important to them
13:02 < dave0> Would be simple to take the evil at
http://www.dmo.ca/projects/hacks/IRC/ircnotify and put it in a .procmailrc
13:02 < muffy> Well, we could always give them the option of whether they
want just messages addressed to them or global ones.
13:02 < dave0> but mailing of digests is a little more painful
13:03 <@ bartman> steve: note that you didn't "play nice"
13:03 < steve> i never do
13:04 <@ bartman> getting only the addressed messages would be pointless
13:04 < steve> oops, that should have been 13:04 steve never does
13:04 <@ bartman> you would get only 1% of the conversation
13:04 <@ bartman> and no context
13:04 < steve> i meant for the name to be a "trigger", which would then
send the digest from the last trigger to now
13:05 <@ bartman> a trigger, not filter... gotcha
13:05 <@ bartman> there would have to be a timed trigger too
