wmIRC.com - IRC client for Smartphone 2003

Quick Users Manual:

After you start wmIRC for the first time go to Menu->Preferences to change your Nickname and select your favorite IRC server. You can get list of servers at:

- EFnet http://www.efnet.org/
- Undernet http://www.undernet.org/
- IRCnet http://www.ircnet.com/
- DALnet http://www.dal.net/
- There are many other IRC networks...

After setting up your Nickname and server address go to Menu->Server->Connect and connect to the IRC network.

If you are connected to a server you'll see a welcome MOTD (Msg of the day) text, after which you can type /join "channel_name" (without the quotation marks) to join a specific channel of your choice.

All IRC channels must have the # char as a prefix, but wmIRC is smart and will add it automatically, if necessary.

When you joined a channel, you'll see an additional TAB, automatically named with the channel name.

Navigation between additional TABS is easily achieved by pressing either the left or right SOFT KEY.

There are two common ways to communicate. Normally, you simply type text, which appears like this: YourNickname (time): Hello there.

Furthermore you can make ACTIONS by typing /me laughing out loud. It appears as * YourNickmame laughing out loud. It doesn't mean that you actually do, but many people -especially veteran chatters- use this kind of actions to show their feelings.

Use Commands->Users List... to access current channel users list.

You can also initiate a tête-à-tête (private) conversation by sending a /query Nickname command. Yet another TAB but this time named by users Nickname will appear, so it will be a private chat among you and the selected user. No one else will be able to see it.

There is a basic list of commands, such as:

- /join ChannelName - joins a specific channel.
- /me Text - Action text.
- /mode modes - Change your mode.
- /part ChannelName - leave channel
- /notice Nickname Text - Send notice to a nickname
- /nick Nickname - Change your nickname
- /topic TopicText - Change or query current topic.
- /query Nickname - Initiate a private tête-à-tête conversation.
- /version or /ver Nickname - Request user IRC client version.
- /msg Nickname Text - Send private message to Nickname.
- /raw or quote commands - You dont need to wrte /qoute or /raw in wmIRC. In System tab, just write /<newcommand> <parameters> and wmIRC will send it as a raw command. for example: /qoute codepage cp1252 in wmIRC it will be just: /codepage cp1252
