- Erich,
-
- I suspect that you are using 800X600, or higher, resolution? I am,
- using 800X600, and the bottom half of text in all one line fields on my
- system is truncated. I sent Peter Tattam a bug report on this last week. If it
- is simply unacceptable to you as it is try 640X480. that eliminates the bug on
- my system.
-
- WinIRC is pretty nice, despite the bug. It won't do a bunch of the neat IRCII
- stuff, like CTCP, but what it does it does well. Enjoy.

- I am wondering if there is a free TCP/IP stack + winsock package with source
- out there. I am not talking about shareware, like Trumpet Winsock. I am
- talking about something like those GNU utilities.

- Thanks for you help.
