marto, when I "used" cbstream, I logged onto the Freenode server and joined the #cbstream channel. That is all I did. What choroba wrote may work, but I was expecting an IRC server and channel to join, exactly how cbstream worked. So, if there are detailed instructions, which include an IRC server and channel, I will use what was written; but without those instructions, I am completely lost.

Never expect users to know how to use what is written without documentation (or at least comments somewhere). That's one reason why I will, more than likely, never upload any modules to CPAN. I am horrible at writing documentation.
