Sorry for my english, guys :)
OS/2 port of IrcII 2.8.2, beta 1.3
Installation:
1) Additional programs (please read)
The default shell is "sh", so copy bin/sh.exe to a PATH or
if you wont use sh, add these lines to your ircrc file:
SET SHELL cmd
SET SHELL_FLAG /c
Using bin/sh is recommened, because this port was not tested
with cmd.exe. Shell bin/sh.exe wich is included here, are
actually modified pdksh/2. It's very compatible with unix shell
scripts, for example config.h for this emx port was generated
using sh.exe and configre, not manualy.
Also some unix utilites are included, wich are used often in
a scripts. These utilites are from gnu?util.zip files, wich
can be found on ftp://hobbes.nmsu.edu/os2/unix.
The ls.exe is modified to produce unix-style output with -l option,
for using with unix ircii scripts. Same as ls -ln, but you don't need
to scan every script for exec ls -l.
So even if you have Gnu unix utilites already installed, please
replace ls.exe with one from this package. The only change I made
there is using unix output format by default.
If you don't have unix utilites installed, copy bin/* to your
PATH, and dll/gnu*.dll to LIBPATH.
2) /bind command
First, 0 is binded to meta3 by default...this mean you can use
/bind meta3-K backward_character
/bind meta3-M forward_character
etc for binding os/2 keys.
There are little hack in /bind for using VT-100 key bindings:
when command is /bind meta2-<some key>, following replacement
takes place:
/bind meta2-A => /bind meta3-H (up arrow)
/bind meta2-B => /bind meta3-H (down arrow)
/bind meta2-C => /bind meta3-M (right arrow)
/bind meta2-D => /bind meta3-K (left arrow)
....
etc, also for PgUP, PgDown, Insert, Delete, Home and End keys.
So if you loading original unix script, all keys should work.
3) Scripts
I tried original(unmodified) phoenix, lice, raven and djinn
scripts with this port, everything seems working fine,
but who knows... Also if you trying to do /xdcc offer
c:\xxx\bigt*.jpg, and it doesn't work, you should search your script
for alias getdir, and something like if ([$[1]TESTFILE == [/]),
checking for <drive>: should be putted there. Or better download
tvfs.zip from hobbes, you will forget about drive letters at all.
