Hey,

Sorry for kinda noobish question. I can't figure out
how ii works. Here's what I did:

1. compiled it;
2. ran "ii -n <ANYRANDOMNAME> -s irc.ubuntu.com" ;
3. "echo "/j #ubuntu" > in" ;
4. and nothing happened.

I checked ~/irc/irc.ubuntu.com/out and there are
channel messages, like "Looking up your hostname,
Checking ident" and all that, ye know.
What should I be doing and expecting from ii?
I have been using XChat/Hexchat,
they have shiny eyecandy interfaces, and you
don't do things manually there.

Thanks!
Mitt

P.S. Yes, I've read README, FAQ, man page and
web page, but still confused.
