Description
resource
ircg_pconnect ( string username [, string server_ip [, int server_port [, string msg_format [, array ctcp_messages [, array user_settings]]]]])
ircg_pconnect() will try to establish a
connection to an IRC server and return a connection resource
handle for further use.
The only mandatory parameter is username,
this will set your initial nickname on the
server. server_ip and
server_port are optional and default to
127.0.0.1 and 6667.
Note:
For now parameter server_ip will not do
any hostname lookups and will only accept IP addresses in
numerical form.
Currently ircg_pconnect() always returns a valid
handle, even if the connection failed.
You can customize the output of IRC messages and events by
selection a format string set previously created with
ircg_register_format_messages() by specifing
the sets name in msg_format.
