31/08/95 - mIRC v3.6
Fixes/Additions:
1.Highlight Box around an Icon now turns green if a highlighted
word is spoken in a window.
2.Fixed Ping Pong bug which was preventing lines from being
sent properly to the server.
3.Fixed Editbox/Colors bug in Extras dialog.
4.Inserting blank lines in Remote/events/aliases between
commands would lead to loss of following definitions.
5.Channel list window would clear if you disconnected and then
connected again.
6.Aliases, Remote Users, Commands, and Events definitions are now unlimited.
ie. you can have as many as you want, however the limitation is the
size of the editbox (around 30k?).
7.Fixed font dialog bug when tabbing with cursor keys.
8.Popups are still limited to 300 menuitems for each popup menu.
9.Max. length of a line in aliases, remote, and popups is approx. 600 chars.
Same applies to lines in the Options dialog.
10.Now allows a non-op to change topic in channel dialog.
11.Fixed :) bug.
12.Fixed /auser /guser bug.
13.Fixed /channel dialog title bug.
14.Added a simple NON-configurable toolbar with tooltips.
A Configurable toolbar would take a lot of work, so I probably
won't get around to adding it (so don't ask! :)
15.Fixed ctcp PING reply missing a Ctrl-A at the end (?)
16.Specifying a /who *146.219* numerical address would mess up because
the *1 is a parameter specifier. mIRC now checks to see if there is
a . in the number, and if so it doesnt try to expand it.
17./play command can now play single lines randomly picked from
a file (a specific line can also be specified). The format is:
/play [-crl] [channel/nick] <filename> [delay/linenumber]
Using -r means pick a line randomly, using -l means pick
a specific line specified by linenumber. The first line in the
file MUST specify the number of lines in the file. Any *1 $1 etc.
identifiers CANNOT be used in the played line.
18.Added $read identifier which picks a line randomly from a file.
eg. /say $read c:\funny.txt
/kick # $1 $read c:\kicks.txt
The first line in the file MUST specify the number of lines
in the file. $read will insert ANY text, even commands with
identifiers, and these will work like normal commands.
19.Added Fast Send checkbox to DCC Send dialog.
20.Fixed scrolling keys in Channel list and finger windows.
21.Made Font list longer in font dialog.
22.Added "auto-join on invite" option to options dialog. An
auto-joined channel is initially minimized (this might not
always work for various reasons...)
23.Added Function key support F1 to F12. Define in the alias
window like a normal alias for example:
/F1 /say Hello!
/F5 /query $1 (for use on nick listbox in channel window)
24.Font width measurement for copy/paste wasn't correct for
certain types of fonts.
25.Fixed problem with minimized windows being sized wrongly.
26.Fixed /channel bug. Now times out after 30 seconds, at
which point another /channel can be issued. BUT if the old
/channel command is replied to, your status window will fill
up with ban list information for that channel. No way around
this I'm afraid!
13/08/95 - mIRC v3.51 (minor update)
Fixes/Additions:
1.Fixed garbage character output bug.
2.mIRC16 wasn't recognizing version reply from Win95.
3.Making mIRC active with a click wasn't setting the focus

12.mIRC wasn't outputting to the status window if it was
starting out maximized.
13.The /auser, /guser, /ruser, /enable, and /disable commands
now do NOT save changes immediately to the INI file when
they are used. Remote information is now saved either on
exiting mIRC, or if the remote dialog is opened/closed.
14.Now uses the ctl3d dialogs as default. The -d is ignored,
but you can now use -n to disable the 3d dialogs.
15.Complete dialog interface improvements (for mook ;)
16.Commands using $* were not processing commands following them.
17.Fixed socket() initialization bug in various routines.
18.Improved how mIRC uses/gets your local hostname and ip address.
19.Fixed fileserver dirinfo.srv bug.
07/08/95 - mIRC v3.5

to make a match but only at the port number.

22.Added /wavplay <sound.wav> command.
23.Two bugs in Getting IP address routines were fixed.
24.Fixed unknown mode oo bug.
25.The ON OP/SERVEROP/DEOP were noticing only the first opped nick.
26.Address as returned by a /whois now has an @ sign.
27.Added $cb parameter, which refers to the first 256 characters
of current clipboard contents.
28.The /flood command now inhibits only specific types of replies to
the server eg. replies to Remote/events/ctcp (basically, replies
triggered by other users).
29.Made random delay auto-op an option in the options dialog.
30.A user in the remote user list can now have multiple access levels:
5,=10,=15,=17:*!*@mardam.demon.co.uk
1) The first level in the list is treated normally and can be anything.
2) The remaining levels are treated as = levels (even if you dont put the
= infront of them).
31.Finger window popup menu now shows the last 5 fingered addresses
for quick selection.
32.Now prevents Channel list window being closed while a listing is being made.
33.The mode change checking routines have been improved.

38.Windows opening in mIRC are now not given focus if mIRC is not the

41.Added $server, $ip, and $host as identifiers.
42.Can now define groups of commands/events in the remote:
#2 start
1:ON JOIN:...
1:ON TEXT:...
#2 end

A disabled group is ignored by the remote.
You cannot have groups within groups.
43.Now shows User mode in status window title.
44.The READ command in the fileserver now does paging (default of 20 lines)
and prompts user whether to continue listing or to stop. User can specify
optional paging size with: read [-numberoflines] <file.txt>
45.The READ fileserver command now also allows reading of any file.
46.Control-Home/End now moves to top/bottom of window text buffer.
Control-Page Up/Down moves up/down line-by-line.

user list.
51.Can now handle multiple /ban and /guser commands one after the other.

58.Added a crude ON MODE/SERVERMODE to react to a *channel* mode change.
1!:ON MODE:#mirc:-spmi+lktn 20 mykey:/notice *1:$nick Illegal mode change!
When someone changes the channel mode, mIRC enforces the above
channel mode instead, and sends the user a notice.
59.Now removes redundant spaces from lines in the Options dialog.
60.Fixed disappearing popups/commands/events problem.
61.Improved /ruser command so that it can work like /ban and /guser.
/ruser <nick> [type] if you do NOT specify a type, then it works
as usual and removes the specified nick from the user list. If you

address from the user list.
62.Now correctly initiates a DCC CHAT using 'chat' as opposed to
the originators name.

the same information as a ctcp finger command.

being freed properly so mIRC would lose as much memory as
the size of the popup menus defined by the user. With the
mirc.ini that comes with the program, this turned out to be
3k+ of system resources everytime the program is run.

mode changes occur. cleaned it up.

window when selected.

turn off the debug switch in the first release :.
4. updated help file with description of previously coded but
forgotten items.
