- About Ircle
-
- Ircle is a Macintosh program to use IRC (Internet Relay Chat). IRC enables
- you to talk, in realtime, to other Internet users around the world. IRC is
- organized in channels on a specific topic. You can also talk privately with
- someone. On average there are about 50000 users and 20000 channels on IRC
- worldwide.
-
-
- System Requirements
-
- Any Macintosh or Power Macintosh with System version 7.0 or higher
- installed. (System 8.0 or higher and AppleScript recommended).
- MacTCP 2.0.x driver or Open Transport 1.1 or higher.
- An internet connection.
- Minimum 1.5Mb of free RAM, 2Mb recommended

- Additional requirements: Quicktime 2.x (3.0 is recommended) and a sound
- application (e.g. SoundApp) to play .wav files.

- This client has been tested with EFNet, Dalnet, Undernet, Newnet and almost
- all other IRC networks. This client is fully compatible with the RFC1459
