ClIRC IRC client for Nintendo DS

Contents

Features

  • 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 colours, 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' analogue :)
  • 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).

Download and Install Instructions

  • Download ClIRC and patch it with DLDI driver of your flash card. If you do not DLDI patch the .nds it will still work but settings will not be saved
  • Copy this file to your flash card.
  • You can create folders for logs and files at once.
  • Run the file ClIRC.nds
  • ClIRC will create two files in root directory of your flash card - wificonf.dat (contains settings of an access point connection) and ClIRC.dat (contains the program settings).

Basic Usage

Here are buttons which can function in any time:

  • Up - scrolls text up (if upper screen contains text)
  • Down - scrolls text down (if upper screen contains text)
  • Left - allows you to go to a previous window
  • Right - allows you to go to next window
  • Start - scrolls text down up to the end (if upper screen contains text)
  • Select - changes backlight brightness (for DS Lite only)
  • L - swaps your screens and allows you to select your text by stylus and copy selected text to a clipboard (if upper screen contains text)
  • Closing DS - puts screens off. The program continues work.

Common Problems and Known Issues

  • Settings not saved between seession

You have not DLDI patched the .nds file.

  • WEP cannot work with some access points (the problem of "dswifi lib"?)
  • DHCP cannot work with some access points (the problem of "dswifi lib"?)
  • If connection is impossible, the program can delay for a minute, and then an error message appears (the problem of "dswifi lib"?)
  • If connection is absent, the program can hang, trying to connect (the problem of "dswifi lib"?)
  • Some insignificant graphic glitches
