5 ## How to avoid letting IRC distract you
7 ### Use `/set activity_hide_targets`
9 > If you don't want to see window activity in some certain channels or queries, list them here. For example `#boringchannel =bot1 =bot2`. If any highlighted text or message for you appears in that window, this setting is ignored and the activity is shown. -- http://irssi.org/beginner/
11 #### Show your current activity_hide_targets setting
13 /set activity_hide_targets
15 #### Update your activity_hide_targets setting
17 /set activity_hide_targets freenode/#salt freenode/#openstack freenode/#vim freenode/##infra-talk freenode/#cobbler
19 #### Clear your activity_hide_targets setting
21 /set -clear activity_hide_targets
25 #### Show your current ignores
29 #### Add an ignore rule
31 /ignore -except #crimsonfu,#geeknight JOINS PARTS QUITS NICKS
33 #### Remove the ignore rule you just added
35 Use the exact string as above but put a minus sign before each of the levels (JOINS, PARTS, etc.)
37 /ignore -except #crimsonfu,#geeknight -JOINS -PARTS -QUITS -NICKS
