echo into specific channel windows not just into the currently active one. something like:
on *:JOIN:*: {
if ($nick == $me) {
echo $color(join) -t $chan Joining $chan
haltdef
}
}
should be a good enough example. also to get the amount of users use $nick(#chan,0,..) where .. is either, a (all), o (ops), h (halfops), v (voice), r (normal).
