NAME
inspircd - A modular C++ IRC Daemon
SYNOPSIS
inspircd [--nofork] [--nolog] [--debug] [--logfile <filename>]
[--runasroot] [--version] [--config <config>]
DESCRIPTION
This manual page documents briefly the inspircd command.
inspircd is a modular C++ IRC Daemon (ircd) for Linux, BSD and Windows
systems created to provide a stable, modern, lightweight irc server
from scratch and provide a vast number of features in a modularised
form using an advanced module API. By keeping the functionality of the
main core to a minimum we hope to increase the stability and speed of
our project and make it customisable to the needs of many users.
InspIRCd is designed primarily to be a custom irc server for the
chatspike irc network (irc.chatspike.net) but we are releasing it into
the public domain under GPL so that you may benefit yourself from our
work. The project is written from scratch, avoiding the inherent
instability under large loads which can be seen in many other irc
server distributions which have the same featureset.
The inspircd command starts the ircd server, using /etc/inspircd.conf
as its configuration file unless used with --config.
