@SYNTAX:join@
-Joins a specified channel. Channel names usually begin with #-sign,
-which may be omitted here.
+Joins a specified channel. Note that, in SILC the #-sign is NOT
+mandatory part of the channel names, and names "#foo" and "foo" will
+join to two different channels.
-JOIN is aliased to J by default. Example: /j irssi
-(This joins to the channel #irssi)
+If -cipher is provided and the channel does not exist the cipher to
+secure the channel messages on the channel will be set to <cipher>. If
+the -hmac is provided and the channel does not exist the hmac to
+secure the channel messages on the channel will be set to <hmac>.
-Description
+If -founder is provided, and the channel's mode includes founder mode
+it is possible to gain channel founder privileges at the same time
+joining the channel. If the channel has user limit, active bans,
+or is invite-only channel the founder can override these conditions
+and join the channel. Only the client who set the founder mode on the
+channel is able to use -founder option.
+
+If the channel has the +C (channel public key authentication,
+see /HELP CMODE) mode set then the user joining the channel must
+provide the -auth option to JOIN command. This option will attempt to
+authenticate the user on the channel. If the user's public key has
+not been added to the channel's public key list, user will not be
+able to join. User may optionally provide the <pubkeyfile>,
+<privkeyfile> and <privkey passphrase> to authenticate with some other
+key pair than with the user's default key pair.
