(information)
0irc is a small irc-client for windows. i never saw a smaller one for
windows which also is open source. it has only a small set of functions,
but i think it can be compared to bitchx with the interface, not the
functions *grin*. my interface is native winows and not console based.
look at the screenshot. 0irc can also be used now as a desktop module
in litestep.
it runs fine under windows me and windows xp.
a documentation can be found on wiki.dev0.de.

(a second review from desktopian.org 2000/3/21)
This is your desktop on irc... Just got a note from murphy over at
dev0.de... *drumroll*... Woot! He's released 0irc v1.0.10! 'Comes with the
comments...
hi again! here is the new 0irc version. it has following new features:
added litestep desktop module with full step.rc configuration and 5
bangcommands, added functional fingerclient, added /log for logging of
chat, added /F and /W one shot commands, added hottracking to buttons and
more documentation :-)
Usage is pretty straightforward, all I did was unpack everything into a
suitable directory and copy the 0irc.dll Litestep module to my Litestep
mods dir. From there I fired up the executable version, '0irc.exe', typed
'/CONFIG' to pop the config dialog, configed my settings, closed the
dialog, and typed '/connect', and I was online.
From there, to configure the Litestep 0irc.dll module, I closed the .exe
with a '/quit', added a loadmodule entry for the .dll into my step.rc, and
copied and pasted the settings for 0irc.dll from the included 0irc.rc into
place. The .dll and .exe versions use separate configurations, so you'll
need to edit the step.rc parameters to match your functional .exe install,
along with specifying the irc window's desktop left, top, width and height
specs and your preferred text colors. I then saved out the step.rc and
recycled Litestep. Et Voila! Instant desktop irc window! Very slick.
The full complement of standard 0irc.exe commands work with the .dll
version (documented in the included commands.txt file), and as mentioned
above, the .dll also supports several LS !bang commands (including the
!0ircCommand to allow you to pass in native 0irc commands from Litestep;
Litestep based scripting of the client!).
The .dll takes the smart approach of not requiring it's own direct skinning,
it just provides the desktop window. Instead it depends on Litestep's
ability to provide the graphics. To 'skin' the app, all you do is build a
suitable graphic shortcut group around the window and you've got a skinned
desktop window! Pretty cool, no extra overhead (beyond your already running
shortcut.dll/easycuts module). To get an idea of the final effect check out
murphy's screenshot from yesterday (.png graphic).
The 0irc.exe is only a 92k app, and the 0irc.dll module version is all of
100k. Pretty lightweight for what they pull off. The combo is available over
at dev0.de as a 109k zip download. You know you're going to grab it and play
with it. Why kid yourself.:D
(a small review from desktopian.org 2000/2/6)
Nifty&new... Looks like I'm not done with murphy's new toys yet, he's also
released a nice little irc client (based on the Aurore open-source client's
code) entitled ' 0irc v1.0.3'. It's small, it's completely command-line
driven, it's easy to setup and install (type /CONFIG to get a simple config
dialog), and it handles all the usual stuff. Weighs a whole 50k.
Give it a look.
