Talking to people

Connecting to the server

Since BitlBee acts just like any other irc daemon, you can connect to it with your favorite irc client. Launch it and connect to localhost port 6667 (or whatever host/port you are running bitlbee on). -

The #bitlbee control channel

The #bitlbee control channel

Once you are connected to the BitlBee server, you are automatically joined to #bitlbee on that server. This channel acts like the 'buddy list' you have on the various other chat networks.

The user 'root' always hangs around in #bitlbee and acts as your interface to bitlbee. All commands you give on #bitlbee are 'answered' by root. -

Talking to people

Talking to people

You can talk to by starting a query with them. In most irc clients, this can be done with either /msg <nick> <text> or /query <nick>.

To keep the number of open query windows limited, you can also talk to people in the control channel, like <nick>: <text>. -
