my solution: http://www.wmii.de/index.php/WMII/WmiircUpdate

In this way i can keep all my shorcuts related code in one place. everything
is inserted automatically in the right place in the wmiirc file.
it also has the nice advantage that i don't have to edit my wmiirc file
manually after updates (main reason i wrote it).
maybe you'll find it useful
