Bug#517440: Specifying port by "server/port"

[Guillaume Delacour]

severity 517440 minor
thanks

i see two usage:

- invoking xchat-gnome with -u (or --url) option with
"irc://server:port/channel" syntax
- configure a server with the syntax "server/port" (like original XChat)
to connect an irc server to a "non-standard" port

If you want to connect to an irc server that use ssl, you just need to
check "Use secure connection (SSL)" and it connect directly (and by
default) to 9999 port (but you can define another port in your server
configuration with server/port).

I agree that this is not documented as well, but maybe we can close
this bug.
