IceBerg for GTirc, V 1.10
IceBerg is a set of scripts for use with the GammaTech IRC client
(version 1.04 and above). The scripts enhance and improve the
features of GTirc. They are released as Postcard-Ware, only thing
I as is that if you use it, drop me some E-Mail to let me know what
you think of it. Version 1.10 is the second release of this product.
Some of the features currently in IceBerg V1.10:
- A message logging function. (May be re-worked in the future)
- Many normal IRC commands are shortened (ie /whois becomes /wi,
/topic becomes /t)
- "/wall" and "/wallop" commands for messaging all nicks or all
channel ops on a specified channel
- Find split servers
- "/exec" command for running OS/2 commands and displaying the result
in the GTirc window.
- "/ossend" command for running OS/2 commands and sending the result
to the current channel or query.
- "/osping" run a normal OS/2 ping instead of the IRC "CTCP PING"
- Auto-opping on your friends, this is nick and channel specific.
- "/crypt" (this is a silly little thing) encrypts your text and then
sends it to the channel, only other users with GTirc and IceBerg
will
be able to easily decrypt this.
- And a few other rather silly things.
IceBerg can be found on hobbes.nmsu.edu in /incoming/icbrg110.zip and
should be moved to /os2/network/tcpip soon. Future versions should
keep with the same name, changing only the version number.
