DESCRIPTION

WeeChat (Wee Enhanced Environment for Chat) è un client di chat libero, veloce e leggero, realizzato per diversi sistemi operativi. It is highly customizable and extensible with scripts.

OPTIONS

-a, --no-connect

--daemon

--stdout

Display log messages on standard output instead of writing them in log file (works only with the command weechat-headless, not compatible with option "--daemon").

-d, --dir <path>

Force a single directory for all WeeChat files (directory is created if not found). Four directories can be given, separated by colons (in this order: config, data, cache, runtime). If this option is not given, the environment variable WEECHAT_HOME is used (if not empty).

-t, --temp-dir

Create a temporary WeeChat home directory and delete it on exit (incompatible with option "-d").
The name of the directory is automatically built by WeeChat, with this template: "weechat_temp_XXXXXX" (where "XXXXXX" is random). It it created in the first available directory in this list: environment variable "TMPDIR", "/tmp" (may be different according to the operating system), environment variable "HOME", current directory.
The temporary home directory has permissions 0700 (only owner can read, write and execute).
