[Erc-help] Some questions

[<po...@rn...>]

Hi all,

I've just downloaded erc-2.93.
I've added to my .emacs file:
(setq load-path (cons "~/emacslisp/erc" load-path))
(require 'erc)
(require 'erc-notify)
(load "erc-menu.el")
(load "erc-list.el")
(erc-track-modified-channels-mode t)

I've added to my .ercrc.el file:
(defvar erc-start-list
  '(("novis.PTnet.org" 6667  "pmatos")  
    ("irc.openprojects.net" 6667 "pmatos")) 
  "List in the form of (server port nick) to open at startup.")
(defun erc-start ()
  "Start an ERC session using as a list of servers `erc-start-list'."
  (interactive)
  (mapcar (lambda (x)
	    (setq erc-server (nth 0 x)
		  erc-port   (nth 1 x)
		  erc-nick   (nth 2 x))
	    (call-interactively 'erc-select))
	  erc-start-list))
(add-hook 'erc-server-NOTICE-hook 'erc-auto-query)
(setq erc-auto-query t) ; open a query window when someone messages me
(setq erc-pals '("catarinita"))

However, when doing erc-select I still have to input all
information about servers I wish to log. How can I use info from
erc-start?
When I add a person to my notify like:
ERC> /notify catarinita
*** Current notify list: Catarinita
ERC> /notify
*** No ison-list yet!

What's the meaning of this?
I remember in previous versions of erc (maybe some months ago)
when I entered a channel the window had 2 frames, one for text
and one for users in channel, that's not happening anymore,
what's the best way to do it?

I've gone into M-x customize-group RET erc RET and I've played a
bit with some options... Usually everything started in a buffer,
not I made it start in different windows... god... so many
windows show up now. Somehow I'm flooded with windows. How do
people usually have it? (ok, ok, it depends on your taste) What's
your oppinion on this? 


Best regards,
