+ Welcome to the Mozilla IRC client tests page. From here you + can select a sample client to try out. It appears that you + + + + have the shared object properly installed, and you + + + + have the interface definition properly installed. +
+ If either of these files are not properly installed, the IRC client + will not be able to create a a socket connection, and will be mostly + useless. The shared object + is called libbs.so on Unix, and bs.dll on Windows (It is not yet + available on Mac), the interface definition is called bs.xpt, and is + the same file on all platforms. Both of these files should be located + in your MOZILLA_FIVE_HOME/components directory. Everything else + related to the IRC client is either JavaScript, XUL, or HTML, and + therefore is platform independant. +
+ test3.xul is very + close to what I expect + the final client to be. At least, I expect not to throw out too much of + this code. The UI is open for discussion. + irc/tests/test3.css holds the styles + for this one. test3 displays usage info when it starts up, and + /help can be used to display all possible commands. +
+ test2.html is + (you guessed it) the second + client. The messages in the output window can be styled by tweaking + irc/tests/test2.css. The views window + controls what network or channel + you are currently viewing. There is NO DEFAULT, after joining a channel + you must click on its entry in the views list before you see any output. + The basic commands are: +
+/network linuxnet +/connect +/nick++/join #mozillazine +
+ test1.html is the + first client. It has no + CSS, and all input is displayed in the same window. If you experience + stability problems with the other clients, try this one. + Commands are the same as in test2.html +
+ Please direct discussions to the netscape.public.mozilla.rt-messaging + newsgroup, or if you feel it necessary, contact me + (Rob Ginda) direclty. +
