Now... this may seem like a silly question: What does the '--' do before the channel url? I know '--' is normally used for parameters longer than one character, but that one is kinda just floating about haha.
- MrMember 7y agoLooks like a mistake on my part, I was probably playing around with another parameter and forgot to remove it completely. It runs fine with it there so I never noticed it but it isn't needed.

- cyphar 7y agoPutting "--" as an argument means that future arguments starting with "-" will not be parsed as arguments (imagine trying to rm a file called "-rf" or grep for "-"). But it just so happens that it's not necessary in this case.
- kiddico 7y agoOhhhhh okay, that makes sense. Thanks!
