Configuring the channels

The channels can be configured individually by giving the corresponding keys in the configuration file. If a channel is omitted, the interface will ignore this channel.

The color of messages from a channel can be modified by adding the key color to the configuration. This should work for the most terminals, but maybe not for all. The following colors are available:

• black
• red
• green
• yellow
• blue
• magenta
• cyan
• white

If the key whitelist is given, all messages from plugins which instance names are not in the whitelist are ignored for the corresponding channel.

If the key blacklist is given, If given, all messages from plugins which instance names are in the list are ignored for the corresponding channel.

(Of course, it does only make sense to use either a whitelist or a blacklist for a channel.)
