When u write !streams the available channels shows.

Can u make it so that they are linked to the public
streams.

In html fashion: <a
href="thePublicTranceStream">Trance</a>

something like that ?

    That would require that we belived that everybody in IRC is
    using some sort of HTML parsing browser. Essentially nobody
    is doing so. Especially nobody on the devlopment team.

    Beyond that, putting html in IRC chat is just plain ugly.
    We hate bold and colors, what makes you think that we will
    use HTML?

    Finally, It's not a half bad idea to have the public streams
    available, but I think that placing them inside the !streams
    command is a really bad idea. There's probably a better
    place for that information.

    I agree that putting the link to the stream in the !stream
    command adds too much clutter to it, especially with the
    number of public streams per channel. I was toying around
    with the idea of adding some sort of !link command that
    could output the links to the public streams, a while back.
    I'll look into doing it again.
