Re: irc client (irssi) problem


I guess he's talking about irssi, which isn't part of Cygwin.
ircII doesn't include Perl support. But I'm not sure since he
used 'irc'.

There are 2 binaries I know of, one I built and doesn't have
Perl support - http://www.pervalidus.net/cygwin/irssi/

The other, which is older, has and is at
http://koti.mbnet.fi/blue/irssi-win32/

As I stated on my site, I intend to make a 0.8.8 binary, and
another if it builds with Perl. But probably not before
January.

Anyway, if it's about irssi, contact any off-list.
