== Report bugs
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Please follow *all* these instructions when reporting a bug:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* Use only English.
|
||
|
|
* Always give the following info:
|
||
|
|
** The *version* of WeeChat: output of `/v` in WeeChat, for example:
|
||
|
|
`WeeChat 0.4.4-dev (git: v0.4.3-215-g2d77782)`. +
|
||
|
|
If WeeChat does not start at all, give the version displayed by
|
||
|
|
`weechat --help`.
|
||
|
|
** The operating system, including distribution name and its version for Linux
|
||
|
|
(examples: Linux Debian Wheezy, FreeBSD 10.0, Windows/Cygwin 64-bit, ...).
|
||
|
|
* Check if the problem has been fixed in development version (if you are using a
|
||
|
|
stable release or old version).
|
||
|
|
* If possible, please include a reproducible example: explain the steps which
|
||
|
|
led you to the problem.
|
||
|
|
* If you are reporting a crash:
|
||
|
|
** Please report crash and attach backtrace from gdb (look at
|
||
|
|
http://weechat.org/files/doc/devel/weechat_user.en.html#report_crashes[user's guide]
|
||
|
|
for more info).
|
||
|
|
** Most of times, the WeeChat crash log file (`weechat_crash_YYYYMMDD_xxx.log`)
|
||
|
|
is *not useful* to fix the bug, so please report this file *ONLY* if a
|
||
|
|
developer asks you to send it (and be careful, this file can contain personal
|
||
|
|
data like passwords).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
== Feature requests
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
WeeChat is under active development, so your idea may already have been
|
||
|
|
implemented, or scheduled for a future version (check in
|
||
|
|
http://weechat.org/dev/[roadmap]).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Before submitting a feature request, it's better to discuss about it in IRC
|
||
|
|
(server: 'chat.freenode.net', channel '#weechat').
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
== Contributing
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
If you want to fix a bug or add a new feature, it's always a good idea to
|
||
|
|
discuss about it in IRC.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
And you can look at http://weechat.org/[developer's guide] for coding rules
|
||
|
|
(styles, naming convention, and other useful info).
