3 * Changes in ERC 5.2 (stable pre-release for Emacs 22)
5 ** M-x erc RET now starts ERC.
6 `erc-select' has been changed to `erc'. `erc-select' still remains as
7 an alias of `erc'. Likewise, `erc-select-ssl' has been renamed to
8 `erc-ssl' with `erc-select-ssl' as its alias. The function that was
9 known as `erc' is now `erc-open'.
11 ** Changes and additions to modules
13 *** Channel lists (erc-list.el)
15 **** This has been removed from Emacs 22, since a major contributor
16 to it has not yet assigned changes.
18 *** Channel tracking (erc-track.el)
20 **** Use mouse-face and help-echo for channel names in the mode-line.
21 This helps people using a mouse know that they are buttons and can be
24 * Changes in ERC 5.1.4
26 ** Make find-function and find-variable work in Emacs 22 for
27 names that are constructed by `define-erc-module'.
29 ** Fix bug introduced in ERC 5.1.3 that caused messages to go the
32 ** Changes and additions to modules
34 *** Highlighting (erc-match.el)
36 **** Don't activate view-mode.
38 *** Logging (erc-log.el)
40 **** When this module is activated, make sure logging is enabled on
41 already-opened buffers. Ditto for disabling logging when the module
44 **** Fix some errors that occur when exiting Emacs without first
45 quitting open IRC servers.
47 * Changes in ERC 5.1.3
49 ** Fix use of /quote command with no initial whitespace.
51 ** Make it possible to customize the colorization of the header line.
52 The `erc-header-line' face is used to color the header line.
53 The `erc-header-line-face-method' determines the method to use when
54 colorizing the header line.
56 ** Add the new function `erc-handle-irc-url', which is a suitable
57 candidate to use for `url-irc-function'. This permits some
58 integration of url.el and ERC.
60 ** Fix several errors that occur when server or channel buffers are killed
63 ** Fix toggling of flood control.
65 ** Match the patterns in `erc-encoding-coding-alist' as regexps,
66 instead of verbatim text. Also, match case-insensitively.
68 ** The /SMV command has been removed, since we no longer have
69 meaningful module-specific version information.
71 ** Fix a "(stringp nil)" error that can happen when doing /PART.
73 ** Use a better example in the `erc-part-reason-various-alist'
76 ** When using `erc-quit-reason-various' and `erc-part-reason-various'
77 and no matches are found, default to using the ERC version string
80 ** Add the `list' and `page' modules to the `erc-modules' customize
83 ** Changes to the ERC manual
85 *** Update the list of available modules.
87 *** Revise information about releases and development.
89 *** Provide a simpler example in the "Getting Started" chapter.
91 *** Fully document how to connect to an IRC server in the new
94 ** Changes and additions to modules
96 *** Autoaway (erc-autoaway.el)
98 **** Rename the `erc-autoaway-use-emacs-idle' option to
99 `erc-autoaway-idle-method'.
101 **** Add support for autoaway based on user idle time.
102 This is now the default.
104 **** If you set the AWAY status yourself, erc-autoaway will not
105 interfere by un-setting AWAY prematurely.
107 **** If you are set away while visiting a non-ERC buffer,
108 erc-autoaway used to fail in bringing the user back. This is now
111 *** BBDB (erc-bbdb.el)
113 **** Add new option `erc-bbdb-electric-p', which determines whether
114 to make the BBDB buffer electric. This defaults to not electric.
116 *** Button (erc-button.el)
118 **** Use <backtab> instead of <C-tab> for `erc-button-previous'.
120 *** Identd (erc-identd.el)
122 **** Fix a bug that involves starting the identd server.
124 **** Make this work with Emacs 22.
126 **** Provide a real ERC module named `identd'.
128 **** Don't create an extra buffer for the identd process.
130 *** Logging (erc-log.el)
132 **** By default, don't insert old logs when opening an ERC buffer.
133 This may be changed by customizing `erc-log-insert-log-on-open'.
135 **** New option `erc-log-write-after-send' determines whether the
136 log file will be written to after every sent message. The default is
139 **** New option `erc-log-write-after-insert' determines whether the
140 log file will be written to when new text is added to a logged ERC
141 buffer. The default is not to do this. With this option and the
142 previous option, logging should no longer slow down ERC as much.
144 **** Default to saving buffers and queries on quit.
145 This may be changed by customizing the `erc-save-buffer-on-quit' and
146 `erc-save-queries-on-quit' options, respectively.
148 **** Only perform logging when the `logging' module is added to
149 `erc-modules'. This prevents logging from being activated just by
150 loading the erc-log.el file, and makes logging act like other ERC
153 *** Programmable completion (erc-pcomplete.el)
155 **** Don't complete the user's current nickname.
157 * Changes in ERC 5.1.2
159 ** Fix compiler errors in erc-autojoin.el and erc-dcc.el.
161 ** Move to end of prompt when ERC reconnects to a server.
163 ** Changes and additions to modules
165 *** Spell-checking (erc-spelling.el)
167 **** Don't spell-check nicks or words that are prefixed with '/'.
169 **** Remove flyspell properties from words we shouldn't spell-check.
171 **** Fix an issue that caused the ispell process to reload every time
172 we switch to an ERC buffer.
174 *** Timestamps (erc-stamp.el)
176 **** Fix an inconsistency in calculating width of right timestamps.
178 **** Rename option `erc-timestamp-right-align-by-pixel' to
179 `erc-timestamp-use-align-to'. This controls whether to use the more
180 fail-proof method of aligning right timestamps, as mentioned below.
182 **** Fix a right timestamp spacing problem that used to occur when
183 erc-stamp.el was byte-compiled. Now that this is fixed, it is safe to
184 use the method that aligns right timestamps perfectly in Emacs22 with
185 X. If the current version of Emacs doesn't support this method, use
186 the simpler method, which is prone to alignment issues for math
187 symbols and other variable-width text.
189 A side effect of using this new method is that there will only be one
190 space before a right timestamp in any saved logs. If this is
191 unacceptable, set `erc-timestamp-use-align-to' to nil.
193 * Changes in ERC 5.1.1
195 ** Fix a requirement on cl.el.
197 ** Use tls.el for SSL connections, rather than ssl.el.
199 ** Changes and additions to modules
201 *** ibuffer integration (erc-ibuffer.el)
203 **** Update this to work with the version of ibuffer.el that comes with
204 recent Emacs variants.
206 *** Old completion (erc-complete.el)
208 **** Fix a few errors.
210 *** Speedbar (erc-speedbar.el)
212 **** Make this work with the version of speedbar.el that comes with
213 recent Emacs variants.
215 *** Timestamps (erc-stamp.el)
217 **** By default, use a more failsafe method of displaying right timestamps.
218 To get right timestamps to align perfectly in Emacs22 using X, set the
219 new `erc-timestamp-right-align-by-pixel' option to non-nil.
221 *** Viper compatibility (erc-viper.el)
223 **** Since most of these changes are now merged into Emacs22, detect
224 whether we need these changes and install them only if necessary.
228 ** Improve XEmacs compatibility.
232 *** Now ERC doesn't use global variable space.
233 Renamed all variables that didn't start with "erc-".
235 o `away' is now `erc-away'
237 o `current-nick' is now `erc-server-current-nick'
239 o `last-peers' is now `erc-server-last-peers'

243 o `last-sent-time' is now `erc-server-last-sent-time'
245 o `lines-sent' is now `erc-server-lines-sent'
247 o `quitting' is now `erc-server-quitting'
249 *** Remove the `with-erc-channel-buffer' function.
253 *** Don't inadvertently destroy face properties.
255 *** Load erc scripts in a safer way.
257 *** Don't insert a timestamp if text at point is invisible.
259 *** Don't hide messages from those in `erc-fools' by default.
260 Color their nicks instead.
262 *** Use a more foolproof method of encoding and decoding strings
263 before sending to a channel.
267 *** Renamed some server-specific variables
269 o `erc-announced-server-name' is now `erc-server-announced-name'
271 o `erc-auto-reconnect' is now `erc-server-auto-reconnect'
273 o `erc-connect-function' is now `erc-server-connect-function'
275 o `erc-default-coding-system' is now `erc-server-coding-system'
277 o `erc-duplicate-timeout' is now `erc-server-duplicate-timeout'
279 o `erc-duplicates' is now `erc-server-duplicates'
281 o `erc-lag' is now `erc-server-lag'
283 o `erc-prevent-duplicates' is now `erc-server-prevent-duplicates'
285 o `erc-previous-read' is now `erc-server-filter-data'
287 o `erc-process' is now `erc-server-process'
289 o `erc-ping-handler' is now `erc-server-send-ping-handler'
291 o `erc-ping-interval' is now `erc-server-send-ping-interval'
293 *** Renamed some functions
295 o `erc-connect' is now `erc-server-connect'
297 o `erc-process-filter' is now `erc-server-filter-function'
299 o `erc-send-command' is now `erc-server-send'
301 o `erc-send-single-line' is now `erc-send-input'
303 o `erc-setup-periodical-server-ping' is now
304 `erc-server-setup-periodical-server-ping'
306 o `erc-split-command is now `erc-split-line'
310 o erc-server-flood-margin, erc-server-flood-penalty: New options
311 that allow tweaking of flood control.
313 o erc-split-line-length: The maximum line length of a single
318 o erc-server-flood-last-message, erc-server-flood-queue,
319 erc-server-flood-timer: Flood control.
321 o erc-server-processing-p: Indicate when we're currently processing
324 *** Remove some options
329 ** New customization group `erc-server' for dealing with IRC servers.
331 ** ERC can now be installed by doing `make install' from the command line.
333 ** ERC now has a manual in erc.texi.
334 Type `make doc' to generate HTML and Info versions of it.
336 ** ERC no longer depends on cl.el.
337 Only the macros in cl-macs.el are used.
339 ** Fix an edge case when quitting as new messages come in.
341 ** Make flood protection toggle-able as on/off, removing the 'strict option.
343 ** If possible, re-use channel buffers when reconnecting to a server.
345 ** Text in ERC buffers is now read-only by default.
346 To get the previous behavior,
348 ** Changes and additions to modules
350 *** Auto-join (erc-autojoin.el)
352 **** Recognize the Azzurra server.
354 *** BBDB (erc-bbdb.el)
356 **** When the user types /WHOIS, ask for a record to merge to.
358 **** Store the displayed name of a BitlBee contact.
359 The new `erc-bbdb-bitlbee-name-field' option specifies the field to use
360 to store this information.
362 **** Don't prompt for a name on /JOIN or /NICK.
364 *** Button (erc-button.el)
366 **** Fix customization of `erc-button-alist'
368 **** New option `erc-button-nickname-face' determines the face to use
369 when coloring ERC nicknames.
371 *** Channel tracking (erc-track.el)
373 **** Remove channels from the modified channels list if not currently
374 connected. This should remove residue from the mode line after
377 **** Recognize buttonized text
379 *** Highlighting (erc-match.el)
381 **** Highlight current nickname by default.
383 **** Added the option of beeping when certain matches occur.
384 Add `erc-beep-on-match' to `erc-text-matched-hook' to enable
385 beeping. Set the new variable `erc-beep-match-types' which match
386 types that make beeps.
388 *** Nicklist (erc-nicklist.el)
390 **** Fix a couple of errors.
392 **** Make sure a stray mouse click doesn't trigger an error.
394 **** Insert icons from the /images directory next to nicks.
395 This indicates their away status. The location is customizable via
396 the new `erc-nicklist-icons-directory' option.
398 If you do not want these icons, set `erc-nicklist-use-icons' to nil.
400 *** Nickserv identification (erc-nickserv.el)
402 **** Recognize Azzurra and OFTC networks.
404 *** Old completion (erc-complete.el)
406 **** Disable by default.
408 *** Programmable completion (erc-pcomplete.el)
410 **** Enable by default.
412 *** Timestamps (erc-stamp.el)
414 **** On Emacs22, align right timestamps perfectly, even if variable-width
415 characters are used. If we aren't using Emacs22, move text farther
416 away from the right margin when variable-width characters are used.
417 It is considered better to misalign the stamp by a bit than to go past
420 **** Enable by default
424 *** Spell-checking (erc-spelling.el)
426 **** Use flyspell in ERC.
428 *** Viper compatibility (erc-viper.el)
430 **** Helps ERC work correctly in viper-mode.
432 * Changes in ERC 5.0.4
434 ** Fix a problem with undo in channels.
436 * Changes in ERC 5.0.3
438 ** Fix typo in the `ctcp-request-to' entry of the English catalog.
440 ** Debugging with edegug has been made easier in all of the
441 erc-with-* and with-erc* macros.
443 ** Non-ASCII character sets should be better supported when sending
444 and processing messages.
446 ** A load failure with erc-autoaway.el and Emacs21 has been fixed.
448 ** A few XEmacs warnings were fixed.
450 ** Changes and additions to modules
452 *** Backend (erc-backend.el)
454 **** Move the check for hidden messages into `erc-display-message'
455 so there isn't so much replicated code.
457 **** Add `definition-name' property to constructed symbols so that
458 `find-function' and `find-variable' will be able to locate them.
460 **** Make sure logs are inserted info the correct channel buffers.
461 There was previously an error when using `erc-insert-log-on-open' in
462 combination with autojoin to multiple channels.
464 *** Button (erc-button.el)
466 **** The layering of `erc-button-face' on other faces in ERC buffers
469 *** Channel tracking (erc-track.el)
471 **** Use optimal amount of whitespace around modified channels
472 indicator. Previously, there was an additional unnecessary space.
474 **** Fix an error that occurred when unchecked buffers existed when
477 * Changes in ERC 5.0.2
479 ** If a channel key is required for a certain channel, ERC will prompt
480 for one if `erc-prompt-for-channel-key' is non-nil.
482 ** ERC doesn't try to reconnect if the network connection is refused
483 when using `open-network-stream-nowait' as the `erc-connect-function'.
485 ** Messages from multiple servers will not go to the currently active
486 buffer. The messages from each server will be contained in the most
487 recently active channel/server buffer that corresponds with the
490 ** Some text messages were cleaned up slightly.
492 ** Button faces should no longer "cover" other faces.
494 ** Made some XEmacs compatibility fixes.
496 ** Nicknames containing a backslash are now correctly highlighted as
497 current-nick and buttonized as nicks.
499 ** `erc-server-select' doesn't offer networks without servers as a
502 ** Non-ASCII character support has been improved.
504 ** Changes and additions to modules
506 *** Menu (erc-menu.el)
508 **** You can now save logs and truncate buffers from the menu-bar.
510 * Changes in ERC 5.0.1
512 ** Narrowing in ERC buffers no longer causes formatting errors.
514 ** The BBDB module now loads correctly when customizing `erc-modules'.
516 ** The value of `erc-button-face' is now respected.
518 ** Fixed a bug which caused a read-only error during connection.
520 ** Server buffers are now tracked correctly.
521 This means that `erc-track-priority-faces-only', `erc-track-exclude',
522 and `erc-track-exclude-types' now work with server buffers.
526 ** Channel members are now stored as a hash-table.
527 `erc-server-users' and `erc-channel-users' are now hash-tables, rather
528 than alists. This significantly increases performance, especially in
529 large channels. Each channel member is stored as an `erc-server-user'
530 struct, with additional information about the channels they are on
531 stored in an `erc-channel-user' struct. Code using old alist-style
532 channel members needs to be updated to work with hash-tables.
533 This new code also removes the need for erc-members.el, which has been
536 ** The way ERC deals with input from the server has changed.
537 All server response code is now in a new file, erc-backend.el. There
538 should be no real user visible changes. There are, however, a few
539 major changes for implementers, and module writers:
541 *** The PARSED response that all handlers get called with is
542 no longer a vector, but an `erc-response' struct.
544 This means LESS MAGIC NUMBERS in the ERC source code, but a few
545 changes in how you get at parsed responses.
547 The sender is accessed via `erc-response.sender'.
549 The command is accessed via `erc-response.command'.
551 The arguments to the command (everything after the command and
552 before the colon) are accessed via `erc-response.command-args'.
553 This is a /list/ of arguments in the order they appear in the
556 The contents of the response is accessed via
557 `erc-response.contents'.
559 Should, for some reason, you want to do something with the
560 /unparsed/ response, you can get it via `erc-response.unparsed'.
562 *** The `erc-server-hook-list' mechanism is gone.
564 All server response handlers should be defined with
565 `define-erc-response-handler'. This defines functions and
566 corresponding hook variables.
568 The mapping of server commands to hook variables is no longer
569 done via `erc-event-to-hook', but through an #'equal hashtable,
570 `erc-server-responses'. In order to find a hook you do:
572 (erc-get-hook command)
574 See the docstring of `define-erc-response-handler' for more
577 *** ALL hook variables have been renamed.
579 In accordance with recommendations in the Emacs Lisp manual,
580 the hook variables are no longer called `erc-server-FOO-hook',
581 but rather `erc-server-FOO-functions'. This is to indicate
582 that the functions they call take arguments.
584 All the modules in ERC have been updated to reflect this change,
585 but external module authors should beware.
587 ** The values of `erc-mode-line-format' and `erc-header-line-format'
588 are now defined as strings to be formatted using `format-spec'.
589 `erc-mode-line-format' does not replace the whole mode-line anymore,
590 only `mode-line-buffer-identification' is set. This way, personal
591 mode-line configurations are not modified and all key bindings work as
592 expected. The process status (connecting, closed) is now shown in
595 ** Customization of ERC variables has been made easier. Variables
596 have been split into more groups for better organization.
600 o `erc-send-whitespace-lines' - Set this to send lines even if they
603 o `erc-manual-set-nick-on-bad-nick-p' - If the nickname you chose is
604 already taken or not allowed, your nick is not changed and you can
605 try again manually if this is non-nil.
607 o `erc-mode-line-away-status-format' - You can now set what is shown
608 in the mode-line when you are away.
610 o `erc-header-line-uses-help-echo-p' - The header-line now uses the
611 help-echo property. You can set this to nil to disable it.
613 o `erc-format-query-as-channel-p' - Set this to nil to have messages
614 in the query buffer formatted like private messages.
616 o `erc-show-channel-key-p' - The channel key is now shown with the
617 other channel modes in the header line. Set this to nil if you
620 o `erc-prompt-for-channel-key' - Set this if you want to be prompted
621 for the channel key (channel's mode is +k) when you call
622 `erc-join-channel' interactively.
624 o `erc-kill-server-buffer-on-quit' - If non-nil, kill the server
625 buffer automatically when you quit.
629 o `erc-join-hook' - Called when you join a channel.
631 o `erc-kick-hook' - Called when you are kicked from a channel. The
632 channel's buffer is sent as an argument to functions called from
635 o `erc-nick-changed-functions' - Whenever your nickname changes
636 successfully, the functions in this hook are run with the
637 arguments NEW-NICK and OLD-NICK.
639 ** New command /WHOAMI - Do a /WHOIS on your current nickname.
641 ** The key binding for changing channel modes is now C-c C-o.
645 o `erc-echo-notices-in-minibuffer-flag' and
646 `erc-echo-notices-in-current-buffer' - You should use
647 `erc-echo-notice-hook' and `erc-echo-notice-always-hook' instead.
649 o `erc-prompt-interactive-input' has been removed (commented out)
650 because nickname completion does not work with it.
652 o All INFO buffer-related variables and functions have been removed.
654 ** You can now disable modules by setting `erc-modules' with the
655 customization interface.
657 ** Changes and additions to modules
659 *** Autoaway (erc-autoaway.el)
661 **** New variable `erc-autoaway-no-auto-back-regexp' - Add text which,
662 when you type anything matching it, will not automatically discard
663 your away status when `erc-auto-discard-away' is non-nil.
665 *** Filling (erc-fill.el)
667 **** New variable `erc-fill-variable-maximum-indentation' - Don't
668 indent more than this many characters when indenting a message from a
669 user with a long nickname.
671 *** Goodies (erc-goodies.el)
673 **** Miscellaneous small modules have been moved from erc.el.
674 The functions erc-add-scroll-to-bottom, erc-make-read-only,
675 erc-send-distinguish-noncommands, erc-interpret-controls, erc-unmorse,
676 erc-smiley, and erc-occur, which were defined in the main erc.el file
677 have been moved to erc-goodies.el and have mostly been translated to
678 the modules scrolltobottom, readonly, noncommands, irccontrols, smiley
683 o `erc-input-line-position' - The line number to use with
684 `erc-scroll-to-bottom'.
686 o `erc-beep-p' - Beep if there is a \C-g control character in a
689 *** Channel lists (erc-list.el)
691 **** New variable `erc-chanlist-highlight-face' - A face used for
692 highlighting the current line.
694 *** Highlighting (erc-match.el)
696 **** `erc-current-nick-highlight-type' has new options: 'keyword and
699 *** Menu (erc-menu.el)
701 **** The `IRC' menu is now automatically added to `erc-mode' buffers.
703 *** Networks (erc-nets.el)
705 **** The functions for determining current network are in this file.
706 There were a couple of functions spread about in different files which
707 each had a different way of determining the current network. The
708 methods have been combined, and the big list of known networks
709 (`erc-networks-alist') is being put to use. You can access the
710 network's name by calling the new function `erc-network'. This
711 returns the name of the current network as a symbol or 'Unknown if it
712 could not determine which network it is.
714 *** Nicklist (erc-nicklist.el)
716 **** ERC has a new way of displaying nicknames in a channel.
717 The new file erc-nicklist.el defines a new command `erc-nicklist'
718 which pops up a small Emacs window showing the nicknames of all
719 members of the current channel. The implementation is not complete
720 and is rather proof-of-concept for now. The result is something a bit
721 like erc-speedbar, but not quite as invasive, and doesn't require use
724 *** Internet services / Nickserv (erc-nickserv.el)
726 **** Network detection is now taken care of by erc-nets.el.
727 The function `erc-current-network' is deprecated, use `erc-network'
728 instead. The variable `erc-networks' has been removed, use
729 `erc-networks-alist'. The network symbols used in
730 `erc-nickserv-alist' now match those in `erc-networks-alist'.
732 **** New variable `erc-nickserv-identify-mode' - Choose which method
733 to use for automatic identification: you can wait for Nickserv to ask
734 you to identify (the default), or send an identify message
735 automatically after you change your nickname.
737 *** Speedbar (erc-speedbar.el)
739 **** New variable `erc-speedbar-sort-users-type' - Sort users in a
740 channel by activity, alphabetically, or not at all.
742 *** Timestamps (erc-stamp.el)
744 **** `erc-timestamp-only-if-changed-flag' now works when
745 `erc-insert-timestamp-function' is set to 'erc-insert-timestamp-left.
747 **** New variable `erc-timestamp-intangible' - Set this to nil if
748 timestamps should not have the 'intangible property.
750 *** Channel tracking (erc-track.el)
752 **** Using faces to indicate channel activity in the modeline now works
757 o `erc-track-priority-faces-only' - Ignore changes in a channel
758 unless there is a face from the `erc-track-faces-priority-list' in
761 o `erc-track-exclude-server-buffer' - Ignore changes in the server
764 o `erc-track-position-in-mode-line' - Set the position in the
765 mode-line where modified channels are shown (only works in GNU
766 Emacs versions above 21.3).
770 ** The module system has again changed a lot. You can now customize
771 the variable `erc-modules' and define once and for all which
772 extension modules you want to use. This unfortunately may require
773 you to change your current erc initialisation code a bit, if you
774 have some existing customsations. On the other hand, this change
775 makes the configuration of extension modules a lot easier for new
776 users. In theory, you should be able to configure all aspects of
777 ERC by using the customize interface, you should no longer really
778 need to write Lisp code for trivial customizations.
780 By default, the following modules are now loaded: (pcomplete
781 netsplit fill track ring button autojoin)
783 Please use M-x customize-variable RET erc-modules RET to change the
784 default if it does not suite your needs.
786 ** THe symbol used in `erc-nickserv-passwords' for debian.org IRC servers
787 (formerly called OpenProjects, now FreeNode) has changed from
788 openprojects to freenode. You may need to update your configuration
789 for a successful automatic nickserv identification.
791 * Changes in ERC 3.0.cvs.20030119
793 ** New module erc-dcc:
795 This finally implements DCC. It requires server sockets to fully work
796 in both directions. This feature is currently only available in Emacs
797 21.3.50 (CVS). Here is a short list of what should work though.
800 * Emacs 21.2, DCC get, and accepting DCC chat offers.
801 * XEmacs 21, Only accepting DCC chat offers.
803 ** erc is switching to global-minor-modes for activation of submodules.
805 This allows you to customize such a mode and get automatic loading of
806 the module. No longer putting a lot of require statments in .emacs.
807 At least this is the long-term plan, not all modules are converted
810 ** The most important user visible change is that you now need to activate
811 erc-completion-mode, to get TAB completion. The new completion code
812 is based on pcomplete. To get the old code, manually load
813 erc-complete and bind TAB to erc-complete in erc-mode-map.
815 To activate completion on startup, put (erc-completion-mode 1) in your
818 Same applies to timestamps. You no longer need to (require
819 'erc-stamp), you can customize the variable `erc-timestamp-mode', and
820 the rest should be automatic.
