IRC ...

[Guest GHI]

I saw that other topic with irc - but i think it kinda broke .. i tested IRC with MBodens telnet, and i got connected. I have a result from my desktop (i couldn't access Telnet with SmartSS on!)

I ain't a c++ programmer, so i can't make some app for it to connect automatically. - Just if anyone is in "project-idea-needing" ;) ^^

If anyone needs to know how to connect .. i can show an example on connecting:

First you connect to irc:

e.g irc.quakenet.org

with port 6667

After this you would be connected - do this:

USER somename localhost localhost :Firstname Lastname

Then type:

NICK yournickname

Then it should write

PING :

After this, you need to apply, by doing this:

PONG :

Then you are connected :)

As some commands you can write

privmsg #channame text

to write a message to a channel when not joined (or remove the # and write a username to write a message to a specified user)

Join :#channame

to join a channel

Hope there's some useful information here :D

(Here's a preview from my desktop:)

We've already played with that on IRC ;)

[Guest GHI]

ok - my bad

But is there an application for it yet?

There was one in development, never went anywhere though. If you'd like to take the project on though i'm sure there would be a lot of happy users ;)

i never coded c++ :| - so i dont think you should count on me ;)
