Bug #1674
Cannot join channels with non-ASCII names on ISO-2022-JP-encoded servers
0%
Description
I don't think this is related to https://bugs.quassel-irc.org/issues/640.
Example: I'm trying to join #おもしろネタ速報 on irc.juggler.jp, but it joins me to another channel with a seemingly identical name.
I was able to join the channel with HexChat, so I went on irssi (UTF-8) and compared my two whois outputs.
For the HexChat session, the channel name (really #おもしろネタ速報) appeared as [pre]#^[$B$*$b$7$m%M%?B.Js^[(B[/pre].
For the Quassel session, the channel name appeared as [pre]#^[$B$*$b$7$m%M%?B.Js[/pre].
In other words, they are identical apart from the [pre]^[(B[/pre] part at the end.
As far as I understand it, this is an [url=https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO/IEC_2022#ISO-2022-JP]escape sequence in ISO-2022-JP[/url].
