+for help how to set the private channel key) defines the cipher and HMAC
+for the channel while +k mode is set. Also the +c and +h modes are
+ignored when private channel key mode is set.
+
+Examples:
+
+ Set the channel a permanent (persistent). The channel won't be
+ deleted when last user leaves the channel. When you as the founder
+ leave the channel you will be able to reclaim the founder rights later.
+
+ /CMODE * +f
+
+ Reclaim founder rights (and operator privileges) for you channel:
+
+ /CUMODE * +of mynick
+
+ You can do the same during joining:
+
+ /JOIN yourchannel -founder
+
+ Change channel founder keypair on your channel. You can do this if
+ you want to transfer founder rights to some other user or if you
+ created new keypair. The operation requires that you have a copy of
+ the old keypair:
+
+ /CUMODE * +f mynick /path/to/old/pubkey /path/to/old/privkey
+ /CMODE * +f /path/to/new/pubkey /path/to/new/privkey
+
+ or simply /CMODE * +f if you are already using the new keypair.
+
+ Here's how to transfer founder rights to different user using
+ temporary keypair:
+
+ Create temporary keypair:
+
+ # silc -C
+
+ Become founder on your channel:
+
+ /CUMODE * +f mynick
+
+ Set the temporary keypair on the channel and then send the key
+ pair to your friend with for example encrypted Email:
+
+ /CMODE * +f /path/to/temp/pubkey /path/to/temp/privkey
+
+ Tell your friend to give the following command to become founder:
+
+ /CUMODE * +f yourfriend /path/to/temp/pubkey /path/to/temp/privkey
+
+ Your friend then sets his own keypair on the channel:
+
+ /CMODE * +f
+
+ After this the temporary keypair can be removed and your friend has
+ become the founder of the channel. This way the founder rights can
+ be transferred without ever revealing your own keypair. When your
+ friend becomes the founder your founder rights will be removed by
+ the server automatically. It is also possible to continue using the
+ temporary keypair, thus sharing founder rights with two or more users.
+ Note that it is possible for only one user at a time to have founder
+ mode on the channel even if they share the keypair.
