mIRC v3.92 documentation, Khaled Mardam-Bey 6/1/95
Welcome to mIRC v3.92, an Internet Relay Chat Client.
For those of you new to the internet, IRC stands for Internet

mIRC attempts to provide a user-friendly interface for use
with the IRC network.
It has the following features:
Coloured text to ease reading.
Uncluttered display.
Comprehensive Alias definitions.
Configurable multi-level popup menus.
DCC Send/Get/Chat/Resume.
Finger client.
Remote CTCP tool.
Simple Event handler.
Some basic fonts.
Ident server.
Simple File-server.
URL Catcher.
Command history.
Function Key definitions.
Toolbar with tooltips.
Finger server.
A handful of options.
Many other useful bits and pieces.
The various parts of this client have been designed with the aim of
simplifying and speeding an IRC session.
To be able to use mIRC, you need several things:
1. Access to the internet.
2. Software for your machine that connects you to the internet.
mIRC requires a WINSOCK.DLL, of which several versions are
available. You will need this before you can use mIRC.
You can always find out the latest information on mIRC at one of
the WWW Homepages listed in the mIRC help file.
