Here's a quick tutorial. Let's say you want to join the #emacs channel on the Freenode network. C-u M-x irc RET Emacs should prompt you for: - a server. Default is freenode on my config (full domain just in case: irc.freenode.net) - a port. Freenode servers listen on several ports [1]. 6667 will do. - a nick. This is the name others will see when you talk. Limit yourself to ascii with no space. - a username. Leave default. - a password. Leave empty. - irc channel: #emacs. Channels are usually prefixed with #. - encryption. Leave default. rcirc opens a server buffer (*irc.freenode.net*) which is used to send server commands (you probably don't need it at this point) and a buffer per channel (#emacs@irc.freenode.net) where you can actually discuss. Switch to the #emacs@irc.freenode.net buffer and start talking! If you close the channel buffer, other will see you left the channel but you are still connected to the server. You need to kill the server buffer to be completely disconnected. 1: https://freenode.net/irc_servers.shtml
