1. OVERVIEW
IRCIIWIN is the MS-Windows version of the IRC II client. The IRC (which
means Internet Relay Chat) is the Multi-User Chatting system which became very
popular and widely used bu UNIX users.
In the recent time there appeared IRC clients for various operating
systems (such as MacOS, MS-DOS, and so on).
The windows versions of IRC clients I have seen do not support the
IRC II protocol, which has became sort of a standard on major IRC servers.
The client you see is the attempt to make the Windows compatible,
user-friendly and IRC II protocol-speaking IRC client. Hope you will enjoy it.
2. THE COMMANDS UNIQUE TO THIS CLIENT
At the present time, the client has only two unique commands:
-SAVE - saves aliases to disk
-LOAD - loads aliases from disk
In the future I am going to add more commands. If you have any ideas, feel free
to send me mail.
NB:
1) The UNALIAS command with no params given, erases ALL the aliases
created during the last session
2) SAVE command issued with no alias defined erases the aliases file
3) LOAD command ADDS (and not replaces) the aliases.
4) ALIAS command with no parameters lists all the aliases
5) if the file AUTOEXEC.IRC exists, it is loaded at startup if
connected to server. File AUTOEXEC.IRC should be built from the IRC commands
(one command per line) and should exist in the IRCIIWIN startup directory
(where IRCIIWIN.INI and ALIASES.IRC files exist).
The AUTOEXEC.IRC included in the package includes only one command : /load,
which loads aliases if they were previously saved.
3. REGISTRATION INFO
This program is NOT freeware, but SHAREWARE, so you can use it only
for 30 days of trial period. If you decide to use it further, you must register
it. The registration costs $50 for single user and $450 for site license.
Registering will give you additional features (such as UNIGNORE command,
DCC command and more comfortable interface). Registration will also disable
some unpleasant effects, such as "Please register" dialog box that appears every
10 commands.
How to register? Very simply: send cheque to the following address:

W A R N I N G : By not registering the SHAREWARE products, you cause the
people to think twice before spending hundreds of working hours and getting the
headache which always accompany programming process. 8-)
4. CREDITS
You may distribute this program freely as long as no charge is taken for
it and as long as the code remains COMPLETELY unchanged and this file exists in
the package.
