Well, it's an easy, reproducable way to hang irssi...

Maybe list disabled ones too, but with "disabled" noted.. ?

Mm.. but my problem is that the default statusbar define contains too few items to accomplish what I want.. (need the --- padding and something that will definately end up on the far right side). > > http://tomas.ogren.pp.se/tmp/isozapp.png > > Right now I'm doing that status bar by having a low-priority item which > > contains a whole bunch of '-----'.. could there be a better way in the > > future?

Explanation: Right now the -- more -- thing ends up to the far right even if you want it or not.. It would be nice to be able to put something in the theme that will be at the end no matter what.. (like my [=] thingies at the ends) Another thing that I noticed now is that the config file supplied with irssi could be nice if it had been run through irssi once (load + save) so it's in the same format as the user config file will be.. so it's easier to diff and see what you have changed (to hand out to friends).. .. and maybe add a GIMPnet server define? (the net where Gimp, Gnome etc lives).. Would be same config stuff as EFNet but irc.gnome.org as server.. /Tomas -- Tomas �gren, [EMAIL PROTECTED], http://www.ing.umu.se/~stric/ |- Student at Computing Science, University of Ume� `- Sysadmin at {cs,ing,acc}.umu.se
