Screenshot of an IRC program which runs on the PC - Image 1For those of you who are looking for a "Russian-friendly" IRC client that works for the Nintendo DS, homebrew developer Cluster has taken it upon himself to create an IRC client with a working Russian in-out interface, as well as all the standard options you usually find on a desktop PC version.

ClIRC 0.04 uses an intuitive one-button switch interface to maximize the handheld's limited screen space. The developer wanted people who are new to IRC programs to enjoy using this app, as well as minimize the amount of primary settings entered into it. While the client was made for the convenience of Russian IRC users, an English version also exists with all the standard IRC options and interfaces.

Here's a list of the features that's included with this version of ClIRC:

  • A clipboard in all dialog boxes. You can even copy from upper screen, holding "L" button.
  • Using up to three servers at the same time.
  • DCC chat support and file transfer by DCC in both directions (I really don't know what for, but in fact
  • Storing of logs directly to flash.
  • Identification of server answers by numbers. I.e. not an interface only but the great deal of server answers is in English for non-english servers).
  • An alternative mode of nicklist request. Now you can see user's "away" status plus a complete list of his modes on server.
  • Flexible settings of colors, highlights, etc.
  • The prototype of scripts for advanced users. You can set commands, which will be executed after opening or closing of DS (turn away automatically, for example). You can previously make a list of commands for channels, privates and nick list, where the appropriate variables will be substituted as well. I.e. mIRC popups' analog
  • All settings can be changed during a program work - it's no need to bother with ini files.
  • Something like multitasking. At the same time you can download several files by DCC, get a list of channels and chat. Practically all tasks are working simultaneously, except the moment of connection.
  • Russian in/out and interface (only for Russian version).
The chatlogs generated are in the .txt file format, so users can easily access them using any default shell programs that can access text files. For more information, don't forget to read the documentation that goes with the program.
