SUPPLEMENT TO high weirdness by email v2.1 *** what this file is *** At the last minute, trying to put something together for release, I have simply joined together some "unprocessed" files - they describe: i] some things from the slopoke ftp site ii] contents of the red.css political archive [ftp] iii] scott yanoff's internet resource list iv] an IRC FAQ v] some stuff 'left over' from the future-culture FAQ vi] cult of the dead cow newfiles vii] ftp.rahul.net archive contents viii] email addresses for sf fan groups In the interests of getting info out, etc, this hodgepodge is going out in a separate file - if anyone wants to archive it as well, & you're on a dos system, I suggest weird2-1.doc and weird2-1.sup as file names. *** STUFF AT THE SLOPOKE FTP SITE *** - all these files available from slopoke ftp site Files on Chaos Magic and from Peter Carroll's latest book.

IRC stands for "Internet Relay Chat". It was written by Jarkko Oikarinen (jto@tolsun.oulu.fi) in 1988. Since starting in Finland, it has been used in some 20+ countries spanning the globe. It was designed as a replacement for the "talk" program but has become much much more than that. IRC is a multi-user chat system, where people convene on "channels" (a virtual place, usually with a topic of conversation) to talk in groups, or privately. IRC gained international fame during the late Persian Gulf War, where updates from around the world came accross the wire, and most people on irc gathered on a single channel to hear these reports. (2) How is IRC set up? The user runs a "client" program (usually called 'irc') which connects to the irc network via another program called a "server". Servers exist to pass messages from user to user over the irc network. (3) How do I use a client? You either compile the source yourself, have someone else on your machine compile the source for you, or use the TELNET client. "telnet bradenville.andrew.cmu.edu". Please only use the latter when you have no other way of reaching irc, as this resource is quite limited. (4) Where can I get source for the irc client? UNIX client-> cs.bu.edu /irc/clients plod.cbme.unsw.edu.au nic.funet.fi pub/unix/irc ftp.informatik.tu-muenchen.de pub/net/irc slopoke.mlb.semi.harris.com there is also a client avaliable with the server code. EMACS elisp-> cs.bu.edu /irc/clients/elisp nic.funet.fi ftp.informatik.tu-muenchen.de slopoke.mlb.semi.harris.com EMACS elisp "irchat"-> cs.bu.edu /irc/clients/elisp lehtori.cc.tut.fi:/pub/irchat nic.funet.fi:/pub/irchat VMS -> cs.bu.edu /irc/clients/vms coombs.anu.edu.au REXX client for VM-> cs.bu.edu /irc/clients/rxirc ftp.informatik.uni-oldenburg.de pub/irc/rxirc MSDOS-> cs.bu.edu /irc/clients/msdos freebie.engin.umich.edu:/pub/irc/clients/MSDOS Macintosh-> cs.bu.edu /irc/clients/macintosh sumex-aim.stanford.edu /info-mac/comm (5) Which server do I connect to? It's usually best to try and connect to one geographically close, even though that may not be the best. You can always ask when you get on irc. Here's a list of servers avaliable for connection: csd.bu.edu ucsu.colorado.edu badger.ugcs.caltech.edu ug.cs.dal.ca nic.funet.fi vesuv.unisg.ch munagin.ee.mu.oz.au sunsystem2.informatik.tu-muenchen.de This is, by no means, a comprehensive list, but merely a start. Connect to the closest of these servers and join the channel #Twilight_Zone When you get there, immediately ask what you want. Don't say "I have a question" because then hardly anyone will talk. (6) OK, I've got a client and I'm connected to a server? Now what? It's probably best to take a look around and see what you want to do first. All irc commands start with a "/", and most are one word. Typing /help will get you help information. /names will get you a list of names, etc. The output is typically something like this-> (Note there are more channels than this, this is just sample output). Pub: #hack zorgo eiji Patrick fup htoaster Pub: #Nippon @jircc @miyu_d Pub: #nicole MountainD Pub: #hottub omar liron beer Deadog moh pfloyd Dode greywolf SAMANTHA "Pub" means public (or "visible") channel. "hack" is the channel name. "#" is the prefix (see number 7 below). A "@" before someone's nickname indicates he/she is the "Channel operator" of that channel. A Channel Operator is someone who has control over a specific channel. It can be shared or not as the first Channel Operator sees fit. The first person to join the channel automatically gets Channel Operator, and can share it with anyone he/she chooses (or not).
