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.

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 - -* `patches/` contains a few patches for the irssi source, probably out of date - by now, which do various things.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 This has since been superceded by the far nicer - `uberprompt.pl` which also lives in that dir.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.
