Bug Description

Binary package hint: xchat-gnome

I've recently switched from xchat to xchat-gnome, and now have a limitation on the number of auto-join channels I can have. Although the channels are listed properly in ~/.xchat2/servlist_.conf, xchat's src/common/servlist.c seems to be limiting it to 258 characters in servlist_load() instead of xchat's 2048 character limit.

Relevant change in xchat:
http://xchat.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/xchat/src/common/servlist.c?r1=1245&r2=1259

So, there is another limit, set by CHANLEN in xchat.h being set to 300. That limit is in xchat also, so doesn't impact people like me who have switched from xchat to xchat-gnome.

actually, I take that back, recent xchat versions don't have the 300 character limitation anymore...
