| Suitable 68k IRC Client? |
Posted by: coius on 2008-05-20 00:39:20
I am looking for a suitable IRC Client for my PowerBook 520. It needs to be 68k and can support more than one connection (3 at most)
I have tried Ircle, and it's useless. ShadowIRC Crashes the machine at launch. I was going to try Snak68k but I can't find it ANYWHERE on the net and it's bugging me for the lack of IRC Clients for the mac. You would think, with tech-savvy people on the net back then, SOMEONE would come up with a decent 68k IRC Client...
Anyone got suggestions or can send me Snak68k (Demo/shareware version) so I can get on IRC With this laptop?

Why is Ircle useless? I used that with my 840av years ago.

I can't figure it out. I can't connect to any of the clients other than that ones that are pre-set and there is no way for me to see what I am typing. It's downright useless unless you can connect to other servers, and then on top of that, not being able to see what you are typing is REALLY annoying.

I figured it out easily enough back when I used it. There is a seperate text window for entering text when you are connected. You must be doing something wrong, the app was not that hard to figure out (and I am used to Mirc on a PC).

I second ircle. It's really the only choice for irc on the 68k Mac, in my opinion. Of course, I'm hardly the guy you wanna be talking to about irc.

Uh, No! ShadowIRC will run on almost anything. And, Its far more useful. Ircle sucks.
http://www.shadowirc.org And, Its open source. Yey!

Firefox can't find the server at www.shadowirc.org.

That's because it's a .com and not a .org. The correct URL is www.shadowirc.com
I think Ircle is head and shoulders above ShadowIRC. Just my opinion. [😀] ]'>
Edit: Here's a screenshot of Ircle running on my beige G3.
