Shame. This could work, but then how do you handle /newserver which
opens a new tab :-/

Or is there a way to access the server list ? (i mean the menu X-Chat-Server
list).

My goal is to have in my script :

A hash of networks (ircnet, undernet, etc) each containing a hash of
possible servers (by network). So you could tell /server DALNet and
it would pick the first one in the hash, if it can't connect, check
the second, etc.

of course, this is supposed to work with /newserver, opening a new tab

of course as well, with each network goes several params, like usual nick,
away nick, open ports, etc, etc)

Any ideas ?
