The official SydLexia.com IRC channel was established on July 24th, 2008. The channel is named #sydlexia and is located on DALnet.

How to get on IRC

Windows

  1. Download and install MIRC.
  2. Run MIRC. By default, it will connect you to a DALnet server.
  3. Pick a username and whatnot.
  4. When the channel window pops up, type in #sydlexia and join.
  5. Alternatively, you can type "/join #sydlexia" into the status window to join.

Mac

  1. FIXME

Linux

  1. Install XChat or BitchX. Your distro of choice should have packages for both available.
  2. Run the IRC client you installed.
  3. Connect to DALnet. XChat will let you choose the DALnet server from a list. Type "/server irc.dal.net" in BitchX.
  4. Pick a username. XChat asks you for your desired username. Type "/nick the_name_you_want" in BitchX.
  5. Join the channel. XChat again asks for the channel, which is #sydlexia. Type "/join #sydlexia" in BitchX.
