Thread: Automatically Connecting To Channels in MIRC

In mIRC, every time you connect to a server, you need to join a channel to chat with people in that channel. It can be irritating to have to type the join com¬mand every time you want to join a channel. Select Favori tes > Organize Favorites, and click Add. Enter the channel name with a hash sign, #linux, for example. Click Add to choose the network on which the channel exists, select the server on which the channel exists, and click OK Check Join on connect and click OK. Next time you connect to the server, you will be automatically connected.

Another easy way to join a channel is to create a Windows shortcut to the channel. Right click on the Desktop (or any folder, for that matter) and select New > Shortcut. Enter the location as irc://ServerName/ChannelName, for example, i rc : / / i rc . f reenode . net! linux. Double-dick the icon and mIRC will join the channel and server.
