# '''IRSSI + Terminal Server'''
::'''Why use the IRSSI client on cs1 you ask? Well because it enables you to not have to be worried about being connected to IRC at all times. By using the ''screen'' porgram you can create a session in the backround and lunch IRSSI within that session. This way when you logout of telnet or ssh your session is still active and can be accessed later on.'''## Obtain an account on cs1 (ask dave).
## Use a ssh or telnet client to connect to cs1. [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PuTTY PuTTY (Windows)]. If you use linux or any unix based operating system you probably know what to do.
##Once you've connected to cs1 launch the ''IRSSI'' application within a [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GNU_Screen ''screen''] session. You can do this by typing "screen" in the bash prompt. This will launch the ''screen'' application which should start a new bash prompt. Type "irssi" in the new bash prompt in order to launch ''IRSSI'', the irc application. As a side note, if you want to exit a ''screen'' session just type "exit" in the bash prompt to return to the main prompt where you originally launched ''screen'' from.
