KCHAT.CFG:

nickname = Newbie
shownodes
nobeep
beeponarrival
lines = 50
macro1 = This is my first macro!
macro2 = This is my second macro!
macro9 = This is my ninth macro!
macro0 = This is my zeroth macro!

Put your own nickname for "nickname." The "shownodes" option
displays ip numbers next to everyone's nickname while chatting. It
can be annoying so just remove this line if you don't want it. The
"nobeep" option stops the beeping that normally occurs when you get
a private message. The "beeponarrival" option will cause the PC to
beep when new people arrive in Kchat. The "lines" parameter can be
set to either 25 or 50. If you leave it out Kchat will use the
default screen size when you run kchat (as long as it's either 25
or 50 lines).

To run Kchat just type:

kchat

If you use Kchat without a kchat.cfg file it will require you to
enter your nickname on the command line, "kchat mynickname". If
you use Kchat with Kali the Kali nickname will override the Kchat
nickname set in kchat.cfg.

You will automatically start out on the #chat channel. To see who
else is on this channel, type /who. To see everyone using Kali
Chat, type /who *. To see a list if users on a specific channel,
type /who #channelname.
