| -b=<local address> |
| Bind the outgoing connection to <local address>. The <local address> must be the IP address of a local interface suitable for contacting the remote <server>: this means that if you're going to use the -i switch, the <local address> must be an IPV6 address. On most systems it is also possible to use a local interface name as <local address>; in this way the interface address can be resolved at runtime by the KVIrc network engine. |
| -c=<command sequence> |
| The <command sequence> will be executed just after the login operations have been completed. |
| -f=<socket filter> |
| Activates <socket filter> on the connection. A socket filter is a plugin that can adapt the IRC protocol to other existing protocols such as OpenNap. For plain IRC it is not needed. |
| -i |
| Makes the connection by using the IPV6 protocol (if supported by the executable) |
| -n |
| Forces the connection to be attempted in a new IRC context instead of the current one. |
| -p=<password> |
| Uses <password> to login to the server (the password will be stored in the server entry too). |
| -q=<nick> |
| Uses <nick> to login to the server (the nicknames will be stored in the server entry too). |
| -s |
| Activates the SSL support for this connection |
| -u |
| Forces the connection to be attempted in the first IRC context that has no connection in progress. If all the IRC contexts have connections in progress then a new one is created. |
