Subject: [Emacs LISP] Login freenode using ERC with prompt for password only
Date: Sat, 1 Dec 2012 01:21:19 -0800 (PST)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <f1c308eb-737e-40a3-9bf2-c11af77cab01@googlegroups.com> (raw)

Hello everyone, I am new to Emacs LISP and trying to write a emacs lisp, which hopefully will enable me to login irc without choosing server/port/nick. 

After reading "C-h f erc", I end up with

(defun my-erc() (erc :server "irc.freenode.net" :port "6667" :nick "mynickname"))

If I put `:pass "mypassword"` at the end of the list, it works fine. However, I don't want to put my password in .emacs, so I hope Emacs will ask me for password when needed.

With the my-erc function I wrote, erc will login password and I have to identify myself afterwards.

Could you give me some hints on solving this?
