5.5 Options

This section is extremely incomplete. For now, the easiest way to check out all the available options for ERC is to do M-x customize-group RET erc RET.

User Option: erc-hide-list

If non, nil, this is a list of IRC message types to hide, e.g.:

(setq erc-hide-list '("JOIN" "PART" "QUIT"))
User Option: erc-network-hide-list

If non, nil, this is a list of IRC networks and message types to hide, e.g.:

(setq erc-network-hide-list (("Libera.Chat" "JOIN" "PART" "QUIT")
("OFTC" "JOIN" "PART""))
User Option: erc-channel-hide-list

If non, nil, this is a list of IRC channels and message types to hide, e.g.:

(setq erc-channel-hide-list (("#erc" "JOIN" "PART" "QUIT")
("#emacs" "NICK"))
User Option: erc-lurker-hide-list

Like erc-hide-list, but only applies to messages sent by lurkers. The function erc-lurker-p determines whether a given nickname is considered a lurker.
