You can give this a try:

Code:
ii -s irc.freenode.net &
sleep 3 && printf '/j #%s\n' "$2" > "$HOME/irc/$1/in"
sleep 1 && cd "$HOME/$1/#$2" && less out

Let call it iic or anything. Then you can do "iic unix.chat unix"

This open the output buffer in less. Thn to make it scrolling as message come, press 'F'. To write a message, press 'Ctrl + C' then '!echo message > in', then 'F' again.
