using /part I am still asked if I really want to leave #300

If I type /part I leave the IRC channel. However, the buffer stays open and when I attempt to kill it I get a Really leave this channel? (y or n) message.

This is the same as if I just did not part the channel in the first place.

Is there any reason to use part then? It just creates and extra step. Would it be possible to part and close the buffer?

The correct solution would be not to ask to part the channel when killing a buffer for a channel we're not in, I think.

I am not sure I follow.... I think the solutions would be:

A. (Most optimal) To be prompted for a parting message when you C-k a channel (this would act as a confirmation as well).

B. Making /part kill the buffer as well

C. Not prompting for Are you sure when you have left the channel (as I think you mention).

What do you feel?

Hm. I have to think about (A), I see why it might be a good idea, but it conflicts with some assumptions I had so far. Thank you for that suggestion.

I am sure you have more priorities, I just do not like being asked for what I consider to parting prompts. Great software though, the only one that lets me use Freenode from Amazon AWS because it supports SASL.
