JOTI
IRC POPUPS
Figure 0.1 These colourful pictures are called popups or mrcs.
What is a popup?
A popup is a short cut to a series of keystrokes that will pop up on channel
when you;
1. left-click on a nickname with your mouse (which highlights the nick)
2. right-click on the selected nick (this will give you a list of your available popups)
3. left-click on one of the choices.
Figure 0.2 Danger Trout approaching!!!
A new IRC user will generally only have a trout....
Have you been slapped by a trout today?
Remember during JOTI:
- As a guideline - Limit all popups to 2 to 3 lines. ( a line is 45 Characters long)
- Color may be frowned apon, best not get use your extremely colourful popups [check before use]
- Due to the number of users, don't test new popups on a #joti channel; try them in #test
- Just a reminder, JOTI will be sounds-lite and colors-lite. Change your popups so you don't interfere with others' systems during JOTI.
How do I do that?
Using simple popups.
Popups with some colour added.
Popups that span more than one line.
Managing your popups with menus.
Popups and ASCII art
Popup stuff that hasn't been classified yet :))
