Closing Circe IRC Buffers in Emacs Without Leaving the Room
It’s a hack but it works: To stay in a room (or rather: let the bouncer stay there) and still close the buffer locally, it helps to change the major mode of the circe
buffer: M-x fundamental-mode RET
. If you change the buffer’s mode to any text mode, the circe-mode
specific teardown hooks won’t be triggered and you can close the buffer without leaving the room.
