(that might not happen on your machine, try it, + we may have out-of-date libraries). See netnews gnu.gcc.bug for a dis- + cussion about the matter. It seems that gcc passes struct's in a + different manner. + +* Server configuration + + Edit the include/config.h to your hearts content, avoiding going + beyond the warning line, unless you are *absolute* sure you know + what you are doing. + If you happen to not take to this warning, you may end up with + a server that will not function properly and annoy not only you, + but users all around the world. + + Old irc client can be found in this package and if you want to use it, + check Makefile in directory irc before compiling. There are other, + better irc clients in distribution and the client distributed with + this version is simply something to begin with if you don't happen + to have other clients available. + + This version was brought to you by jto@tolsun.oulu.fi and send any + bug fixes and suggestions to me. + +NOTE: This server does *NOT* have MAIL system installed by default. + The reason is that it doesn't work with many systems. + +This version introduces you string channels, starting with +a plus (+) sign. The first person joining a string channel +claims it's ownership and after that is entitiled to use /mode +command. Ownerships can be given and taken away with +/mode +o and /mode -o +Other flags are: s - secret, p - private, l - limited, i - inviteonly. + m - moderated, n - no private messages to channel, + t - topic settable by operator only +New command /KICK kicks a user off channel. + +--Jarkko (jto@oulu.fi)
