IRSSI [http://www.irssi.org/ irssi] is a command-line [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internet_Relay_Chat IRC ] client popular with many developers. By using irssi in conjunction with the Unix [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GNU_Screen '''screenGNU Screen''' ] program you can create one or more shells that will exist even when you logout. This is useful when you move between computers, but want to reconnect to irssi where you last left-off.
==Advantages==
# '''If I want to leave the irssi that I logged in from one computer to another but keeping the connection and messages running, what should I do?'''
#* I should do Ctrl+A and then press D right after.
#* Close the SSH in this computer, moved to another computer, log into cs1 zenit again, then type 'screen -arAd'.
#* '''Notice: You don't even have to connect again.'''
== Other approaches ==
See the '''Staying Connected''' topic on the [[Irc]] page for some other approaches to this problem.
