The IRC (Internet
Relay Chat) is
another part of the Internet, just like the WWW, the FTP, the News, the
E-mail. On IRC, you can chat using your keyboard with people that are also
using IRC. Unlike the e-mail, that you send a message and may wait several
days to receive a reply, the IRC is real-time! It's just like these Web
chats, but with much more advantages: It's quicker and more practical,
and it has plenty of commands and features that lets you chat better.
The best way of learning about IRC is using it.
The only problem is that you may become an IRC addict,
just like me and some friends of mine
who can't turn off the computer! Enjoy it! By IRC
we can meet people from anywhere in the
world.
You can find me on the channel
called #Balzac
at the IRC BrasNET Network (irc.brasnet.org)
, my nickname is caramelos.

All the basics to start using IRC:
Server: With the
server you can connect to an IRC network. Try one of these servers: irc.fortalnet.com.br
, irc.unisys.com.br
, irc.correionet.com.br
, irc.dialdata.com.br
, irc.tvfilme.com.br
, irc.netwaybbs.com.br
, irc.buriti.com.br
, irc.cnet.com.br
, irc.bahianet.com.br
or irc.brasnet.org
.

Network.
Channel: After connecting
to a server, you must enter a channel to start chatting. Type /join
#channel_name to choose a channel. It doesn't matter the server,
the place where you can find more brazilian people is on the #brasil
of that server. If you're on Brasnet, try typing /join #Balzac , you may find me there.
PVT (private): On
this windows, that can be opened by double-clicking one person's nick on
a channel, you can talk privately, just you and the
other person see what you're typing. This
is one of the advantages of IRC when compared to the
Web chat rooms. Here you can chat without being "spyed".
Now you can go on until you master IRC. You will certainly
find someone to help you.
To use IRC, be prepared for anything!!! :{)

mIRC Scripts:
A script is mIRC that someone has customized. scripts
are the .ini files that come with mIRC, just they have been edited to perform
specific commands. There are thousands of scripts out there. scripts can
do commands automatically or by right clicking. They are very complicated,
but anyone can learn how to write one. Scripts simply take advantage of
the alias, popup, and remote sections of mIRC.
Uses of Scripts:
Scripts have many uses. They prevent people from flooding
you off of the net and they also help protect channels you are on. They
protect other ops, and friends. Good scripts keep you from getting flooded
or disconnected through other flooding or war techniques.
How to install a script:
Now that you have downloaded a script, what do you
do? If it is zipped up, use Winzip
or another unzip program to unzip it. After it unzips, it may run an installation
program. Just follow the directions and install it wherever you want it.
Now, double click on the mIRC file located in the script directory. Look
up at the menu bar. There should be an extra item there. Try connecting
and then right click in a channel, the status window, a query box, and
the nicknames list in the channel window. A list of options comes up. Cool
huh? Most scripts come with a readme file that tells you of most of their
options, but some do not.
Writing your own script:
Before you even think of writing a script, make sure
that it's not already written...it would be a waste of time to rewrite
a script. Also, make sure you have some new features in your script...I'd
say about 80% of scripts have NO new features. Are you going to use this
script? Do you actually need a script? Are you on the internet a lot? The
easiest way to learn how to write a script is by studying others. Print
out the .ini files (aliases, popups, remote) and put them in the bathroom
to read every now. Also read the mIRC Commands they should also help you
along your way.
