[edit] DCC

It seems like there is more to DCC than I thought, enough to warrant its own table, perahps. These things could be covered as dcc subtypes: Normal, Resume, Passive, DCCServer, RDC, Reverse?, Secure. And for each of these there might be send, get, chat, fserve, whiteboard, it seems. I am not qualified to deal with all of that, but perhaps someone who knows more about this could take care of the dcc portion. Amaurea 11:06, 22 September 2005 (UTC)

[edit] RDC protocol

Documentation of RDC protocol: http://www.sysreset.com/rdcc-protocol.txt 210.168.185.69 13:07, 22 September 2005 (UTC)

reverse spec: http://cvs.prbh.org/cgi/viewcvs.cgi/*checkout*/epic4/doc/DCC_REVERSE?rev=1.4

[edit] Scripts

Shouldn't there be a table for extendablity via scripts?

[edit] Miranda

Under Features, Miranda should have a note (7) stating that multiserver support isn't thru the plugin itself, but by using the 'copy dll-hack' as it's called in the Miranda article, for completeness. I hope a Wiki experienced will add that.

[edit] About UTF-8 support

I grepped latest sourcecode of BitchX (ircii-pana-1.1-final.tar.gz) and EPIC (epic4-2.6 and epic5-0.3.4) and there was no mention about UTF-8 or Unicode. So, why on earth this article claims they have UTF-8 support?

[edit] More Info

This is most useful! However some (to me) critical details are currently missing:

  • download file size
  • is installation necessary
  • which versions of win will it run on (out of the box)

If I could answer the above I would... but as yet I cant. Tabby 10:12, 2 November 2007 (UTC)

How about adding new features in the list
  • Spell checking
  • Incremental finding
  • history/chat-log
  • Auto updates
