use defun/setq instead of define (elisp isn't scheme); use format instead of concat, the latter breaks when the service is passed as an integer

Connecting with SSL
-------------------------------
The easiest way to get started is using the function `open-tls-stream`
which is defined in the `tls` library. You need the `gnutls` binary for
this:
(require 'tls)
(setq rcirc-server-alist '(("irc.freenode.net" :port 6697 :connect-function open-tls-stream :channels ("#rcirc"))))
This example defines a new `irc-open-tls-stream` function which calls out to the `socat` program to establish an SSL
connection:
(defun irc-open-tls-stream (name buffer host service)
(start-process name buffer "socat" "STDIO" (concat "OPENSSL:" host ":" service ",verify=0")))
(define rcirc-server-alist '(("irc.freenode.net" :port 6697 :connect-function irc-open-tls-stream :channels ("#rcirc"))))
(setq rcirc-server-alist '(("irc.freenode.net" :port 6697 :connect-function irc-open-tls-stream :channels ("#rcirc"))))
Connecting through an HTTP proxy
---------------------------------------------------
@ -20,10 +27,10 @@ Connecting through an HTTP proxy
The `proxychains` program does some magic tricks to get network activity to go out through an HTTP proxy. This example
uses `proxychains` in front of `socat` to make a plain (non-SSL) connection:
(define irc-open-proxied-stream (name buffer host service)
(start-process name buffer "proxychains" "socat" "STDIO" (concat "TCP:" host ":" service)))
(defun irc-open-proxied-stream (name buffer host service)
(start-process name buffer "proxychains" "socat" "STDIO" (format "OPENSSL:%s:%d,verify=0" host service)))
(define rcirc-server-alist '(("irc.freenode.net" :connect-function irc-open-proxied-stream :channels ("#rcirc"))))
(setq rcirc-server-alist '(("irc.freenode.net" :connect-function irc-open-proxied-stream :channels ("#rcirc"))))
Connecting with SSL, presenting a client certificate, with an SSH connection to a remote server

from that machine, presenting a client certificate to the IRC server to authenticate. It also makes sure the remote
host presents a valid SSL certificate.
