This package is provides a hexchat-like status bar for joined
channels in ERC. It relies on the `erc-track' module, and displays
all of the same information that `erc-track' does in the mode line,
but in an alternative format in form of a sidebar.
Shout out to sidebar.el
and outline-toc.el for
the sidebar window management ideas.
Usage:
Use M-x erc-status-sidebar-open RET to open the ERC status sidebar
in the current frame. Make sure that the `erc-track' module is
active (this is the default).
Use M-x erc-status-sidebar-close RET to close the sidebar on the
current frame. With a prefix argument, it closes the sidebar on
all frames.
Use M-x erc-status-sidebar-kill RET to kill the sidebar buffer and
close the sidebar on all frames.
