Feature request: "You're connected" indicator #5
Comments
Hmm, this is an interesting one for sure. I think waiting for just a moment and then displaying our own "Connected!" message if none comes from the server would work pretty decently. Kinda wanna keep ircdog relatively light, always printing a Connected! message feels a little strange. I'll play around with it, might not be that bad once I try it out for realsies. Thanks very much for the suggestion! |
If we get readline support (#28), the prompt won't display until we successfully connect to the remote, which will help somewhat. We might also consider a verbose mode (compare netcat). |
for reference, netcat's behaviour:

Yeah, that's similar to what we print unconditionally in --listen mode: Line 417 in dd3d41b

Added --verbose in 8e33735 |
I'm testing Burrow, and noticed that there's no indication that you're connected. I think most servers send you something like "Looking up your hostname" messages which makes it more obvious.
A little message saying you're connected might be helpful. I've attached a screenshot of a successful connection to a testnet, with no messages.
