Re: [GNC] IRC access
I like the idea of making the page more useful to persons like me who have no idea how IRC works yet without 'bloat' or information beyond links to a few good outside sources for details beyond basics that is needed to start using the #GnuCash channel. I know that another thing I would like to know is how to address in-channel comments to others so that when more than one person is commenting I can address one of them easily without manually typing their nick-name every time. It looks like the seasoned users have a trick that I haven't learned. I do not use IRC for any other purpose than asking questions about GnuCash, so I do not practice in channels for other topics, and I suspect most other GnuCash users that happen by are also not heavy IRC users.

Re: [GNC] IRC access
I am pretty sure the section can be slenderized. You have both not been there, when the attack was waging. I watched lags of several minutes between sending a commnd and seeing its execution. That is the reason why I copied the very first help screens. After setting the moderation flag on the channel, my worst case scenario was a user, who fears he lost his data and can now additionally not ask in the channel. Probably a more user friendly structure might be: Just try the link irc://... If successful continue with "register a nick" else install a client, see lists, and retry with the definitions, where required. ~Frank Am 06.03.19 um 08:00 schrieb David T.: > I agree.

Re: [GNC] IRC access
I agree. It would be appropriate to have brief information related to gnucash on IRC, with pointers to official resources. 90% of the content in the current page should go. The introductory paragraph followed by the server, channel, and link to IRC download and help pages should be it. David T.

Re: [GNC] IRC access
That looks like what I need. Could that link and perhaps more for other clients be added to the GnuCash faq for IRC access, probably in section on client setup with a reference by the section about getting a voice.
