Help:IRC
Rosetta Code DOES NOT have a presence on IRC. IRC help is deprecated in favor of the slack workspace since Freenode's takeover and subsequent implosion.
Point your favorite IRC client to irc.freenode.net, and join #rosettacode. Mind you, there may not be anyone active. But if you stick around long enough, someone will respond.
IRC clients[edit]
You'll need to use an IRC client to connect to the IRC server.
Web Browser[edit]
You can visit Rosetta Code's IRC channel via your web browser on the Special:WebChat page.
Linux[edit]
- XChat should come with your distribution
Unix[edit]
Windows[edit]
- mIRC is a popular Windows IRC client.
- Another choice is SilverEx XChat, a free windows build of XChat.
Windows and Linux[edit]
- Pidgin/Finch works with other chat protocols as well as IRC.
Mac[edit]
Logging[edit]
Logging is stalled and has been for some time. Anyone who feels like making a logging bot should talk to people (especially Short Circuit) in the IRC channel. A complete listing of logs of the channel are available on request.
Evaluators[edit]
We have some evaluator bots for the languages on Rosetta Code. Here's how to invoke each one in the channel:
| Language | Prefix | Bot |
|---|---|---|
| E | “eel: ” |
eel |
| Haskell | “> ” |
lambdabot |
