-<h2>FAQ</h2>
-
-<h3>Q: Why doesn't irssi display colors even when ircii etc. displays them?</h3>
-
-<p>A: They force ANSI colors even if terminal doesn't support them. By
-default, irssi uses colors only if terminfo/termcap so says. The correct
-way to fix this would be to change your TERM environment to a value where
-colors work, like xterm-color or color_xterm (eg. <code>TERM=xterm-color
-irssi</code>). If this doesn't help, then use the evil way of <code>/SET
-term_force_colors ON</code>.</p>

-<h3>Q: How do I easily write text to channel that starts with '/' character?</h3>
-
-<p>A: <code>/ /text</code></p>
-
-
-<h3>Q: Why doesn't irssi update my realname (or whatever) after I change it
-with <code>/SET realname</code> and reconnect with <code>/RECONNECT</code>
-or <code>/SERVER</code>?</h3>
-
-<p>A: Irssi is trying to be too smart. This will be fixed in future, but for
-now you should use <code>/DISCONNECT</code> and <code>/CONNECT</code>.</p>
-
-
-<h3>Q: I connected to some server which isn't responding but now irssi tries
-to connect back to it all the time! How can I stop it?</h3>
-
-<p>A: Two ways. The "good way" to do it is with <code>/DISCONNECT</code>.
-Check the server tags first with <code>/SERVER</code> without giving it any
-parameters, reconnections are those that have tag starting with "recon"
-text. So most probably you're going to do <code>/DISCONNECT recon-1</code>.
-The other way is to remove all the reconnections with
-<code>/RMRECONNS</code>, easier but may remove some connections you actually
-wanted to reconnect (if you used multiple servers..).</p>

-<h3>Q: How do I add seconds to timestamp?</h3>
-
-<p>A: <code>/FORMAT timestamp {timestamp %%H:%%M:%%S}</code> - and remember
-to add the trailing space :)</p>
-
-
-<h3>Q: Why does irssi say "Irssi: Channel not fully synchronized yet, try
-again after a while" when I try to use /BAN etc?</h3>
-
-<p>A: Possibly a bug in irssi, or ircd you're using does something that
-irssi didn't really notice. The new code should make this happen far less
-often than before, but one known reason for this is when irssi doesn't
-notice that you were unable to join some channel. Currently however I don't
-know of any such events irssi doesn't know about.</p>
-
-<p>Anyway, if this does happen, do <code>/RAWLOG SAVE ~/rawlog</code> soon
-after joining to channel, and either try to figure out yourself why irssi
-didn't get reply to WHO request, or send the whole log to cras@irssi.org. Note
-that the rawlog is by default only 200 lines and it may not be enough to
-show all needed information, so you might want to do <code>/SET rawlog_lines
-1000</code> or so.</p>
-
-<p><code>MODE +b</code> still works fine though.</p>

-<h3>Q: Where's the GUI version?</h3>
-
-<p>A: Read

-<h3>Q: How do I autorejoin channels after being kicked?</h3>
-
-<p>A: That's evil and you shouldn't do it. If you get kicked, you should stay
-out, at least until the channel forgot you existed :) Most channels I've
-joined just ban you if you autorejoin after kick. If you're joined to
-channels who kick people for fun, try changing channels or something.</p>
-
-<p>Anyway, if you REALLY want to do that, and you understand that you're doing
-evilness, you can use the autorejoin.pl script that comes with irssi. You'll
-still need to specify the channels you wish to rejoin with <code>/SET
-autorejoin_channels #chan1 #chan2 ...</code></p>
-
-
-<h3>Q: How do I announce that I'm away/back in all channels I've joined? Or
-how do I change my nick when setting myself away/back?</h3>
-
-<p>A: That's even worse than autorejoin. Who could possibly care every time
-you come and go? Many channels will kick you for using this, and I for example
-have added several ignores so I'd never need to see these messages. Learn to
-use <code>/AWAY</code> command properly and tell its existence to people
-who don't know about it. <code>/WII yournick</code> shows your away reason
-much better for people who actually want to know if you're there or not.</p>
-
-
-<h3>Q: Why does irssi autojoin on invite by default?</h3>
-
-<p>A: The setting is /SET join_auto_chans_on_invite - it's not the same
-as regular autojoin-on-invite, which irssi doesn't even have. The only
-channels that are joined on invite, are the ones you've added to config
-with /CHANNEL ADD -auto. This is very useful with +i channels when you
-need to first send an invite request to bot, or if you get accidentally
-kicked from channel, the kicker can invite you back immediately.</p>
-
-<p>I don't see any bad side effects with this feature, so it's ON by
-default. I guess someone could start kicking/inviting you all the time
-but server connection shouldn't drop because of that, and you shouldn't
-join channels whose operators are that evil.</p>

-
-<h3>Q: How to make UTF-8 support work with irssi?</h3>
-
-<p>A: Make sure your terminal supports UTF-8 (for example, <code>xterm -u8</code>).
-If you use screen, you may have to do <code>screen -U</code>. And in Irssi do
-<code>/SET term_charset utf-8</code>. (for 0.8.9 and older: <code>/SET term_type utf-8</code>)</p>
-
-
-<h3>Q: Will there be /DETACH-like feature?</h3>
-
-<p>A: Maybe. Detach code already is there, attach is just missing :) But I
-don't have much interest in coding it,
-<a href="http://www.gnu.org/software/screen/screen.html">screen</a> and
-<a href="http://dtach.sf.net/">dtach</a> can be used to do it just fine.</p>

-
-<h3>Q: How do I run scripts automatically at startup?</h3>
-
-<p>A: Put them into <code>~/.irssi/scripts/autorun/</code> directory. Or
-better would be if you placed them in <code>~/.irssi/scripts/</code> and
-created symlinks to autorun directory (eg. <code>cd
-~/.irssi/scripts/autorun/ ; ln -s ../script.pl .</code>)</p>
-
-
-<h3>Q: How do I execute commands automatically at startup?</h3>
-
-<p>A: Put them into <code>~/.irssi/startup</code> file, each command on its
-own line. The preceding slash (/) is not necessary.</p>
-
-
-<h3>Q: How do I easily edit existing topic?</h3>
-
-<p>A: /TOPIC <tab></p>
-
-<h3>Q: How can I have /WHOIS replies to active window?</h3>
-
-<p>A: You can disable the status window, or do <code>/WINDOW LEVEL
--CRAP</code> in it which would also make several other messages show up in
-active window. You can also use a
-<a href="http://dgl.cx/irssi/hack-whois-in-current-window.pl">script</a>.</p>
-
-<h3>Q: How do I add the active network to the statusbar</h3>
-
-<p>A: Modify the window-line in statusbar section in config file to
-<code>window = "{sb $winref:$tag/$T{sbmode $M}}";</code></p>
