^But what about "Hi unknown command"
So am i connected ot not.
there is can be two possibilities
- you are appending '/' before normal text like /hi
- or you typing in tab other channel tab
You didn't mention which client are you using & when you get the error. so its really difficult to know where you are stuck.
I am using chatzilla as a example
when you connect, then you have to type in channel tab, which is named after the channel name.
like #digit

when you finish typing press enter & then it will appear on screen
