In other IRC clients I have used, I could double click the name of one of the other people talking in the room and it would open up a new window so I could talk privately with them. Similarly, if somebody else clicked my name, it would open a window on my client. In AmIRC, I can't find any way of doing this. It it possible?
Thanks

That can't be private messaging then. Just clicking some nick can't open window on the destination.
The only thing that I can think of is DCC Chat.
Anyway, See AmIRC Prefs, "Actions", "Special", "Other actions", "Userlist doubleclick:". You can set the doubleclick command here (it can be '/DCC CHAT %u' for example). If you don't need the other side to open up a chat window (just yourself), use '/QUERY %u'.

I tried DCC chat but got an automated response from the user's client saying that it was not supported :(

Well, it isn't AmIRC's fault the user is using some poor client...
However, use the '/query %u' thing then, but be aware that it does NOT automagically notify the target user in any way.
Only after you type some msg to the user he/she will actually see you're trying to msg him/her.

I didn't say it was AmIRC's fault :lol:
The group is actually web based and uses a java client. I was just trying to set up AmIRC to connect to it.
