Commands

JOIN

Usage: `/JOIN channel[,channel[,...]] [key[,key[,...]]]'

Join a channel on the IRC. If the channel doesn't exists, it is automatically created.

There are two kinds of channels: Channel names starting with an # are global channels and available on all IRC servers which are connected to the net you are currently on. Channels which begin with & are local to the chat server you are connected to.

If a channel requires a special keyword to join, you can submit this after the channel name.

AmIRC will look for a channel window which isn't currently bound to a channel. If it doesn't find one, a new window will be created and bound to this channel.

Alternative: CHANNEL
