The following is a brief list of the interesting scripts, and why you might want
to use them.
-* `auto_server/` -- provides a `/join+` command which allows you to join
- channels on servers to which you're not currently connected, as long as you've
- got everything set up correctly in your `/channels` and `/networks` config.

+* [`history_search/`](tree/master/history_search/) -- an improved version of
+ [@coekie's](/coekie/irssi-scripts/blob/master/history_search.pl) original
+ history_search, it behaves a lot more like the standard Readline incremental
search over your recent command history.
-* `ido_mode/` -- A window switching mode best described as "The bastard lovechild
- of emacs ido-mode and window_switcher.pl". It supports flexible matching of
- channel names, filtering by active windows, servers, and more. See the script
- comments for details.
-
-* `feature_tests/` has a bunch of different little scripts written to test certain
- aspects of Irssi behaviour. None of them are likely to be particularly useful
- unless you're looking for simple examples of various things on which to build.
- Some of the ones which might actually be useful are:
-
- * `key_test.pl` - decodes and prints keyboard inputs from the `gui key pressed`
- signal. Useful for checking what keycode a particular combo generates.
-
- * `template.pl` - A basic outline of a script to use as a starting point
- for others.
-
- * `pipes.pl` A barebones template for a script which uses forking and pipes
- to handle async tasks in the background without hanging Irssi.
-
-* `modules/` contains a few half-baked attempts at loadable modules for Irssi,
- none of which do very much at the moment. They might be useful as templates
- for your own modules, however.
-
-* `no_key_modes/` provides an additional expando `$M_nopass` which you can
- add to your theme to provide channel modes, but without showing the channel
- key. This is probably less useful since someone pointed me at `/set
- chanmode_expando_strip` which has much the same effect.
-
-* `patches/` contains a few patches for the irssi source, probably out of date
- by now, which do various things. The easiest way to figure out what is to read
- them, unless I get bored and document them sometime.
-
-* `prompt_info/` was the original "How can I put dynamic status crap into my
- prompt string" script. This has since been superceded by the far nicer
- `uberprompt.pl` which also lives in that dir. Many of my other scripts
- require uberprompt as a way to provide part of their user interface.
-
-* `sb_position/` gives you an additional status bar item which indicates
- approximately how far you are scrolled in a given window buffer, in terms
- of pages and percentage. It is configurable as the comments in the script
- explain.
-
-* `scrolled_reminder/` is a script that tries to prevent one of the more
- common accidental IRC screwups -- replying to a conversation that happened
- hours ago because you didn't notice you were scrolled up in the history buffer.
- If you try to send a message whilst scrolled, it'll warn you and check you
- really want to first.

-* `quit-notify/` is based on a script by vague@#irssi/Freenode. It is most
- useful when you are ignoring joins/parts/quits from a channel, and hence
- don't realise when the person you are responding to has left. If they have
- (or if you prefix your message with a nonexistent nick), the script will
- ask you to confirm that you want to send the message, much like
- `scrolled_reminder`.
-
-* `undo/` contains 2 scripts, `undo.pl` and `kill-ring.pl`. See their header
- for further documentation.
-
-* `testing/` is a Perl framework external to Irssi (ie: not a script) that will
- ultimately allow you to write unit tests for your scripts, and run them in a
- real irssi instance, and check that they behave correctly. Still undergoing
- heavy development, and not really ready for public usage.
-
-* `throttled_autojoin/` doesn't work. It's meant to allow people with huuuuuuge
- numbers of autojoin channels and servers to connect slowly, so as not to time
- themselves out when reconnecting. Mostly dead.
-
-* `tinyurl_tabcomplete/` is a script which lets you hit tab following anything
- that looks like a URL to replace it with a tinyurl'd version. Handy if you
- regularly paste Google-maps links or other massive horrible links.
-
-* `url_hilight/` I can't remember what this one does. Suggestions welcome.
-
-* `vim_mode/` The most exciting (and by far the largest) script here. Gives
- vim-addicted users a way to use most of their finger-memory in Irssi. Still
- under active development, features and bug-requests welcome. Also supported
- in #irssi_vim on Freenode.
