Hi group,
Sorry for my poor English if I can't describe myself clearly, and if I
did, please let me know, thanks!
Issue 1:
Log feature deson't work at all, I have these settings in ~/.emacs
(setq rcirc-log-flag t)
(setq rcirc-log-directory "~/.emacs.d/log")
(setq rcirc-log-process-buffers t)
Issue 2:
rcirc-server-alist doesn't work well when rcirc-authinfo has been
specified for oftc irc server.
I have settings:
(setq rcirc-server-alist '(("irc.freenode.net" :channels ("#rcirc"
"#emacs" "#vim" "#bsdchat"))
("irc.oftc.net" :channels ("#emacs-cn"
"#arch-cn" "#suckless" "#vim-cn" "#tex-cn"))
))
(setq rcirc-authinfo '(("freenode" nickserv "user" "password")
("oftc" nickserv "uesr" "password"))
With these setting, the channels I've specified will not aoto-join when
connect to oftc, but if I removed "oftc" in rcirc-authinfo, then it will
work fine. freenode server works fine in both cases.
My emacs version is: GNU Emacs 24.0.50.1 (i386-mingw-nt5.0.2195) of
2011-08-23 on 3249CTO. I have find the issues since emacs version 23
though.

That's alright, you described the issues very clearly!

That is strange. I don't know why that would happen, to be honest.
I'll have to look into it further.

This is because of two things:
1. On oftc, Nickserv says "You are successfully identified as
<nickname>.", but on Freenode it says "You are now identified for
<nickname>." We currently don't support the oftc version, but I have
fixed it and will soon push it to trunk. Thanks.
2. Since a while back, early March, rcirc uses
rcirc-authenticate-before-join, which waits until you authenticate using
e.g. NickServ before joining any channels. This is turned on by
default, but since the oftc message was not supported, it would never
understand that the user had successfully authenticated. You can either
turn off this option or wait for me to push the above fix to trunk.

Thanks for so detailed explanation, I turn the option to nil and now it
works fine, thank you and hope to see your patch in the trunk!
