UNDER CONSTRUCTION WILL BE AVAILABLE SOON<h1><strong>This page will show you how to install irssi.</strong></h1> <strong>You have to be under root. If under a user do:</strong> <code>su - root</code> <strong>and enter your root password. <br>Now instead or $ it should have a #.</strong> <strong>If you have a previous version of irssi installed, I recommend uninstalling before you install the new version.</strong> <code>yum -y remove irssi</code> <h2>Now to start the new installation.</h2> Do:<br><br> <code>yum -y install glib2-devel gettext</code> <code>yum -y install gcc</code> <code>yum -y install ncurses-devel</code> <code>cd /tmp</code> (or your directory of choice, this is where you save the .tar file from the web) <code>wget http://irssi.org/files/irssi-0.8.13.tar.bz2</code> <u>Updated 5/3/09</u> <code>tar -xjvf irssi-0.8.13.tar.bz2</code> <code>cd irssi-0.8.13</code> <code>./configure</code> Then do: <code>make install</code> <strong>Wait for that to install, it does take some time and the text all over the terminal is normal. When it is complete, type irssi in the terminal (recommend doing under user and not root) and it will pop up. If you do not know how to connect, type /help and it will pop up commands to use. If you have any more questions you can chat with me in the irc room, username is bk.</strong> <i>Using irssi with ssh coming soon. Screenshots alos coming soon.</i>
