Irker can also join password-protected channels. Users need to append -`?key=thesecretpassword` to the chan name. +`?key=thesecretpassword` to the chan name. When using this feature remember to +**not** put the `#` sign in front of the channel name; failing to do so will +result on irker joining a channel literally named `#chan?key=password` henceforth +leaking the channel key through the `/whois` IRC command (depending on IRC server +configuration).
