--14dae9d251468b5ea704dd0af76a Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 Hi Joel, The problem with that is that when there is a disconnect or something, Irssi can't connect via the same nick because it says it's in use. If sasl.pl is used, it won't say so because my nick is pre-authenticated. On Fri, May 17, 2013 at 7:52 PM, Joel Esler <[email protected]> wrote: > You don't need a plugin to do that.
