Looking for help on autocreating channel based on nickname

Post by kpeezy »

I have a multitude of questions and don't expect for them to be answered directly, although that would be helpful, just pointing me in the right spot would be greatly appreciated. I have Unreal up and running on Debian and can successfully connect to it. I am attempting to use IRC as a means to a live support with a Java client present on my website to connect with. Upon connecting i would like Unreal to get the nick of the person connecting, or once connected, automatically make them join #support as well as another channel based on their nick #<nick>. Once the channel #<nick> is made, i would also like for a ops in the #support channel to automatically be joined to #<nick> and autosend a message "Someone will be with you shortly <nick>". Any pointers or examples would be helpful as i am just a novice with linux but do find it very intriguing and am excited to learn. Thank you in advance

The best possible way for this to be done would be to have the java client handle the joining to the #<nick> channel.

Then in the support channel, have a bot which when someone joins it automatically joins #<nick>, and messages the channel.
