Name

kike - an experimental IRC daemon

Synopsis

kike [OPTION]…​

Description

kike is a basic IRC daemon for single-server networks, suitable for testing and private use. When run without a configuration file, it will start listening on the standard port 6667 and the "any" address.

Options

-d, --debug

Do not daemonize, print more information on the standard error stream to help debug various issues.

-h, --help

Display a help message and exit.

-V, --version

Output version information and exit.

--write-default-cfg[=PATH]

Write a configuration file with defaults, show its path and exit.

The file will be appropriately commented.

When no PATH is specified, it will be created in the user’s home directory, contrary to what you might expect from a server.

Files

kike follows the XDG Base Directory Specification.

~/.config/kike/kike.conf

/etc/xdg/kike/kike.conf

The daemon’s configuration file. Use the --write-default-cfg option to create a new one for editing.
