Chatzilla

[Nick]

Hi. Its been a while since I last posted a new Thread here!

Anyway. Just wondering if its possible to get Chatzilla to work on the Amiga.org channel. IRC is something i haven`t done in ages so I`m a bit rusty.....Ok very rusty! My Amigas in a many peices and has been slowly dying for ages, so until i get a FAST new Amiga which works (my A1 doesn`t work either) then I`m on my PC  :-x

Thanks

I use Chatzilla every day and it works perfectly.

Yeah, but how? I`m to rusty with IRC to remember how things work. Not used it seriously for about 3 years.

Why not just install a irc client ? Mirc ? hehe

Hmmm. I want to use Chatzilla....for now at least. Its small n simple. Can`t be bothered getting anything serious. Surely somebody knows how to get it going.

Well, ChatZilla itself says upon starting (here, Ffox 1.5.0.11/OSX 10.4.9/CZ 0.9.77):

[HELLO]   Welcome to ChatZilla...
Below is a short selection of information to help you get started using ChatZilla.
[HELLO]   Help is available from many places:
- |/commands| lists all the built-in commands in ChatZilla. Use |/help | to get help on individual commands.
- The IRC Help website provides introductory material for new IRC users.
- The ChatZilla FAQ answers many common questions about using ChatZilla.
- The ChatZilla Support Channel is always available to answer any further questions about ChatZilla.

So /commands and then /help to RT*M ;-)

Quick start;

/server irc.zirc.org
/join #amiga.org
to enter and

/leave (or /part)
/disconnect
to leave.

Oh, and also
/nick
to change your nickname to whatever (sic). :-)

Mozilla.org says:

ChatZilla is an IRC client that is written entirely in JavaScript and XUL. You must be using a Mozilla based browser to run ChatZilla.

So for AmigaOS, nowhere. For Windows, install Firefox and then ChatZilla add-on.
