Changes: 1.This is the first stable release of the new Unicode version of mIRC. The project to convert mIRC to Unicode has taken almost two years of development and testing and has required tens of thousands of changes to 150,000+ lines of source code. This has been the most complex and time-consuming update to mIRC since it was created in 1995, when it started out as a non-Unicode, 16-bit, Windows 3.1 application. Many areas of mIRC have had to be updated or re-written, from file handling to text processing, from display to memory allocation, from server communications to file transfers. mIRC should now be faster, more stable, and more compatible with the latest versions of Windows, and should be able to better handle the display and input of a variety of languages. In addition to being converted to Unicode, there are a few other notable changes: Improved Windows 7 compatibility More reliable INI file handling Faster text display/scrolling Speech support Improved interface design for a number of features Automatic text color correction Menubar Alt key show/hide feature Support for italic text and other font styles Optimized SSL routines Status window SSL connection icon IPv6 support Improved portable support Persistent channel history Digitally signed executables Automatic splitting of long channel/private messages Full screen display with F11 function key UPnP support Many bug fixes And more For a full version history of mIRC v7.x development, please see the

list of changes starting with v7.0. 21/07/2010 - mIRC v7.08 Changes: 1.Fixed Unicode surrogates bug. 2.Changed Port dialog bind address editbox to allow entry of longer addresses. 3.Fixed Unicode and color codes text-wrapping bug. 4.Extended /tokenize to accept Unicode characters as delimiters. 5.Fixed log files corruption bug. 09/07/2010 - mIRC v7.07 Changes: 1.Fixed /showmirc -s bug with maximized windows. 2.Fixed INI routines quote handling bug. 3.Fixed F11 full screen gpf bug when many windows are open. 4.Changed folder selection dialog to allow editbox input. 5.Fixed /timer -h consistency bug. 6.Fixed window vertical scrollbar bug when lines were trimmed due to exceeding maximum buffer size in some situations. 7.Fixed transfer windows displaying & characters as accelerators. 8.Changed script editor to display message when desktop setting is changed. 9.Fixed iswm bug where * wildcard was not matching $null. 10.Added $mouse.cx/cy properties to return cursor position relative to primary monitor. 11.Fixed /bwrite file pointer bug. 12.Fixed $window().dx/dy bug. 28/06/2010 - mIRC v7.06 Changes: 1.Changed "Split long channel/query messages" option to handle action messages and to ignore other CTCP messages. 2.Updated to OpenSSL 0.9.8o library. 3.Changed CAP event handling so that scripts can no longer prevent the CAP reply from being sent. 4.Fixed find text dialog not matching text in wrapped lines. 5.Fixed /timer parameter error handling and display. 6.Fixed display width of some characters when using monospace fonts. 7.Fixed hotlink cursor not being updated in some situations. 8.Added support for full screen display with F11 function key, /showmirc -f switch and $appstate value "full". 9.Fixed switchbar separator display bug. 10.Fixed main window system menu bug when main menubar is hidden. 11.mIRC now remembers if MDI windows were maximized on exit and opens them maximized on next startup. 12.Fixed /signal -n recursion gpf bug. 16/06/2010 - mIRC v7.05 Changes: 1.Extended editbox history to 100 lines. 2.Extended /sockread to read more than 4096 bytes at a 3.Changed INI routines to enclose data in quotes if it non-printable characters, ie. less than $chr(32). 4.Fixed INI routines not saving comments within topics 5.Fixed INI routines bug that would have resulted in a

time. contains any correctly. random gpf

in some situations. 6.Extended $mask() to handle IPv6 addresses. 7.Fixed $gmt and other time-related identifiers to correctly include timezone and daylight offsets. 8.Fixed $asctime(zzz) bug. 9.Added /localinfo -p switch, uses UPnP to look up and set your local info settings. 10.Changed $utfencode()/$utfdecode() to handle the C script/codepage parameter correctly in text that contains Unicode and UTF-8. 11.Fixed variables not being sorted correctly when sort button is used in script editor. 12.Added /bwrite -t switch, interprets text value as plain text and does not evaluate &binbar variables. 28/05/2010 - mIRC v7.04 Changes: 1.Added UPnP support. The Ports dialog allows you to enable UPnP support for retrieving your external IP address, the identd server, DCC connections, and the DCC server. The first three options are enabled by default. mIRC marks UPnP ports that it opens as "mIRC". It closes UPnP ports the moment they are no longer needed. If mIRC is connecting to multiple servers at the same that use both IPv4 and IPv6, the UPnP port for the identd server will only be able to handle either IPv4 or IPv6 at any one time, since a UPnP port can only be bound to one address. If you make any changes to the UPnP options in the Ports dialog, mIRC performs a quick check to see if UPnP is available and will warn you if it is not. 2.Added /socklisten -p switch to enable UPnP support for a listening socket. 3.Changed hotlink feature to handle more formats. 4.Fixed /clear -g switch bug. 5.Optimized display routine to use bitmap caching more efficiently. 6.Changed the way a server connection is closed after sending /quit to make disconnection more robust/graceful. 7.Added check for empty servers list. If servers list is empty, mIRC looks for the "defaults" folder and copies the servers.ini from there to the data folder. 20/05/2010 - mIRC v7.03 Changes: 1.Changed DCC Send/Get windows to show long progress bar when window is maximized. 2.Changed DCC Send/Get switchbar buttons to display progress bar in black during transfer and grey when finished. 3.Fixed /fseek line matching bugs. 4.Optimized BOM-checking in file routines, should have minimal impact on read/write speed now. 5.Fixed $dns().ip bug when resolving an IP address. 6.Changed Control+N back to shortcut for channel switching. 7.Added "Split long channel/query messages" option to Messages dialog. If a message is long enough that it might be chopped by the maximum server line length, it is sent as mutliple lines.

8.Fixed font bug with reading font settings from mirc.ini. 9.Optimized display routine, should be faster in some situations. 10.Changed richedit editbox support back to riched20.dll since it seems to be faster and more reliable overall. 11.Optimized the way scripts are loaded into script editor editbox. 12.Fixed ini file handling bug when reading section/item/data that are enclosed in quotes. 13.Fixed hotlink feature not handling single-word hostnames. 14.Changed $utfencode/$utfdecode to return input text if they are unable to encode/decode the text instead of returning an error. 15.Changed the way the file routines set end-of-file and error, should behave more like older versions now. 16.Added /raw -n switch to prevent characters in the range 0-255 being UTF-8 encoded when sent to the server. Also added a $rawbytes identifier that returns the incoming server message prior to any parsing/decoding. 01/05/2010 - mIRC v7.02 Changes: 1.Added Unicode/UTF-8 BOM support to file routines. This applies to all files that are read or written as text, including ini files. 2.Changed DCC Send/Get windows to allow full filename to be viewed when window is resized. 3.Changed DCC Get to open download file with exclusive write access. 4.Added support for detecting Wine so that mIRC can use alternative code for features that need it. Around fifteen separate workarounds were implemented. Features that could not be made to work reliably (richedit editbox support and playing mp3 and mid files) are now disabled. 5.Changed mouse wheel scroll method in the script editor editbox to allow faster/smoother scrolling. 6.Fixed system shell DDE messages bug. 7.Changed font-linking implementation slightly, should be faster and support more characters. 8.Added support for /dns $server to fill $serverip for SOCKS5 users, though note that this results in a DNS leak. 9.Fixed treebar background update bug. 10.Optimized display routine, should now be faster when displaying control codes. 11.Fixed $regml().pos bug. 12.Added Names dialog back to Display options dialog. 13.Fixed /sockudp -k bug. 14.Fixed line colors parsing bug when reloading log files. 15.Fixed query flood check bug. 15/04/2010 - mIRC v7.01 Changes: 1.Changed the way fonts are set for editboxes in windows and in the script editor. This should resolve issues for users who are seeing the font change when they enter text. 2.Changed the foregound/background color correction feature so that it no longer applies if a ^K background color is specified. 3.Fixed /filter gpf bug. 4.Fixed /fopen gpf bug. 5.Changed $input() icons default sound behavior. 6.Fixed text display bug where last character was not entirely visible in some situations with certain fonts. 7.Changed toolbar and switchbar to not display separators when

background picture is used. 8.Fixed timestamp bug where the timestamp was not being displayed if a Unicode character was used in the format string. 9.Changed numeric 451 "You have not registered" message for the "CAP" request to no longer be displayed when connecting to a server. 10.Fixed DDE support. Most applications, such as web browsers, can only reply to ANSI DDE requests, so mIRC now sends DDE requests in ANSI as opposed to Unicode. mIRC can now reply to both Unicode and ANSI DDE requests. 11.Changed identd default behavior when choosing userid from email address or identd userid field. 12.Fixed $ini()/loadbuf combination bug that was fixing/updating an incorrectly formatted ini file even though it was only being read by the script. 13.Changed /filter to allow output to the NUL device. 14.Fixed "End of /MOTD" message not being displayed in some cases. 15.Fixed /speak not working with older voices/engines. 16.Fixed /sockwrite -n and /write -a CRLF bugs. 02/04/2010 - mIRC v7.0 Changes: 1.mIRC is now a Unicode application. 2.mIRC now uses its own custom ini routines to ensure more reliable ini file handling. They should work almost identically to the standard Windows ini routines. 3.Changed the way microsoft agent is detected by checking for folder instead of loading agent to cater for Windows 7 issue. 4.Added a bitmap cache to speed up window text display. Depending on the font you are using, your cleartype settings, and/or your cpu speed, you should see a significant increase in display speed of text in all windows. 5.Fixed script editor not filling as much of the editbox buffer as it could (up to maximum size of 500k) when reading a file. 6.Updated to PCRE library v8.02 and enabled Unicode/UTF-8 support. 7.Fixed /drawrot gpf bug. 8.Fixed tooltips cpu usage bug under Windows 7. 9.Fixed switchbar/toolbar button sizes under Windows 7. 10.Fixed multi-monitor popup menu bug when second monitor was placed to the left of the main monitor. 11.Now using gdi+ for picture loading/saving. 12.Fix internal http routines not handling redirects correctly. 13.Updated to SAPI5+ speech and voice commands to make them work with Windows 7. 14.Added Speech dialog to Sounds dialog. This replaces the Agents dialog which is no longer supported by Windows 7. If mIRC notices that Agents are available on your version of Windows, the Agents dialog option will still be available. 15.Added /speak -spclu [speed] [pitch] [text] command which speaks the specified text, where the switches are: -s -p -c -l -u = = = = = speed pitch clear apply apply (0 to 100) (0 to 100) all queued lines lexicon settings in speech dialog. option settings in speech dialog

You can use $speak(N) to list all lines that are currently queued for speaking through the /speak command. If N = 0, returns total number of queued lines.

16.Extended maximum incoming server line length from 600 to 1024 bytes. 17.Fixed default notify sounds not being saved with relative path. 18.Fixed popup loading bug when a file contains empty lines. 19.Fixed on CLOSE event bug with status window requiring * prefix. 20.Extended on CLOSE event to work with channels. 21.Changed on OPEN/CLOSE events to handle parameters like other similar events. This should not affect existing scripts. 22.Added script editor file menu options "Rename" and "Delete". 23.Added [about] portable=[yes|no] item to mirc.ini that allows you to enable portable mode more easily on usb drives. 24.Changed mouse wheel routine to correctly handle faster/slower scrolling. 25.Added CAP LS protocol support. mIRC now sends "CAP LS" as the first line when connecting to a server before sending NICK/USER to logon. Currently enables "multi-prefix" and "packet-size=1024" if they are available. 26.Fixed listbox item height in Control/Color/Highlight dialogs. 27.Fixed text display being clipped incorrectly when using certain fonts. 28.The Channels List window now updates the horizontal scrollbar on-the-fly to avoid the display freeze after listing a large number of channels. 29.Fixed some controls not being disabled in Lock dialog when lock is enabled. 30.When clicking reset button in Colors dialog, colors are now reset to the most recent active settings for that theme. 31.mIRC now skips sending "mode +i" on connect if it has already been set automatically by the server. 32.Changed the design of some of the dialogs in the Options dialog, the DCC Send/Get dialogs, and others. 33.mIRC no longer requires Full Name and Email Address to be filled in the connect dialog and sends default values if left empty. 34.On connecting to a server, if both nick and alternative are in use mIRC appends a random number to your nickname and tries again. 35.Changed /debug windows to no longer interpret colors. They now display control codes as plain text. 36.Changed USER/NICK logon method to comply with RFC2812. 37.Changed switchbar DCC Send/Get button progress bar, now displays a small bar under the text. 38.Optimized Unicode font-linking routines. 39.Now using Visual Studio 2008 to compile mIRC. 40.Added WM_PRINTCLIENT support to a number of controls including the toolbar, switchbar, and treebar. 41.Renamed "download" folder to "downloads" in line with other folders. 42.Fixed /debug windows log menu not being set correctly. 43.Fixed mIRC main window system menu not being set correctly when the menbuar is disabled. 44.Renamed "Firewall" dialog "Proxy". Replaced /firewall command with /proxy although /firewall is still supported. 45.mIRC now disables the proxy if it is enabled in the proxy dialog but no address is provided and a SOCKS_HOST environment variable does not exist. 46.Added menbuar auto-show/hide feature that displays the menubar when you press the Alt key and hides it afterwards. 47.Keyboard focus now automatically switches to the treebar if all other windows are minimized. 48.Fixed PCRE gpf bug when expression results in heavy recursion. 49.Changed switchbar to display transparent buttons when a background

picture is selected. 50.Added support for all available font styles, such as italic and semi-bold, in font dialog. 51.Added support for Control+I key combination to make italic text using control code 29. 52.Added support for DLLs that use Unicode functions. By default mIRC assumes that DLL functions are ANSI for backwards compatibility. However a DLL can enable Unicode support by setting mUnicode to TRUE in the LOADINFO structure: typedef struct { DWORD mVersion; HWND mHwnd; BOOL mKeep; BOOL mUnicode; } LOADINFO; 53.Added SendMessage WM_MEVALUATE/WM_MCOMMAND support for Unicode. By default mIRC assumes that mapped file data is ANSI for backwards compatibility. However an application can "or" the value 8 in the cMethod parameter to specify Unicode data. 54.Changed display behavior for a number of dialogs, such as the DCC Send/Get dialogs, so that buttons are now disabled for a short time when the dialogs are displayed to prevent accidental typing. If the user is typing the buttons remain disabled until the user stops. Added a 'b' switch to $input() and an "option disable" property to custom dialogs that enables this behavior. 55.Fixed treebar display bug when displaying DCC window names. 56.Changed script editor Order dialog to automatically select the active script in the listbox on opening. 57.Updated editbox in all windows and script editor to use richedit 4.1 msftedit.dll for improved Unicode support. If not available reverts to riched20.dll. 58.Changed line numbering method in script editor, uses more reliable method that is independent of editbox. 59.Changed status window icon to display a yellow lock when on a secure connection using SSL. 60.Fixed Control+K color dialog centering bug. 61.Changed servers list sorting method so that the networks listed in the [networks] section of servers.ini are now placed at the top. 62.Changed DCC Send/Get transfer windows default font, now uses the system dialog font. Also switched to appropriate system font for measurements in features such as $input() and popup menus. 63.Changed design of DCC Send/Get transfer windows, interface is now clearer and the display updates once a second. 64.Changed flood protection to begin working only after receiving the first numeric to prevent logon issues in some situations. 65.Changed design of the File Type warning dialog, now clearer and also shows the file extension that was ignored. 66.Optimized the way line indentation works, such as for /echo -iN, and other displayed lines. 67.Improved tab and indent spacing measurement method for both fixed and non-fixed width fonts. 68.Improved text-wrapping at whole word boundaries, and now wraps at both spaces and commas. 69.Numeric 422 "MOTD file is missing" message is no longer displayed when first connecting to a server. 70.Fixed proxy errors not being displayed correctly in some situations.

71.Added a bind listbox to the Connect/Options/Ports dialog that lists all active networks interfaces for easy selection. It still allows you to enter an IP address as well. 72.Updated /dns command, now multi-threaded, resolves concurrently, and can return both IPv4 and IPv6 addresses. By default, /dns only returns IPv4. You can use the switches -46 to return a combination of IPv4 and IPv6 addresses. 73.Added support for IPv6 connections. By default, mIRC will always use IPv4, so IPv6 support must be explicitly enabled using one of these methods: 1) Enable IPv6 support in the Connect/Options/Ports dialog. This allows mixed IPv4 and IPv6 connections, with IPv6 taking priority in DNS resolution. This means that if you try to connect to a server that has both IPv6 and IPv4 addresses, mIRC will try IPv6 first. 2) The bind option in the Connect/Options/Ports dialog. If you specify an IPv4 or IPv6 adapter/address, DNS resolution and all connections will be made based on the adapter/address type. If you explicitly specify an IP address for a connection, such as a /server or DCC connection, it overrides this setting. 3) The /server command with switches -46 to force DNS resolution to return either IPv4, IPv6, or both. If you specify an IP address, it overrides the switches. The server window will use the requested DNS method for all subsequent connections until you change it with the /server command. Note: in order to use IPv6, both your version of Windows and your Internet connection must support IPv6. 74.Added $iptype(text) identifier, returns "ipv4" or "ipv6" if text is is a valid IP address format. With IPv6 addresses, the properties .compress and .expand can be used. 75.Added cue text (optional) to Connect dialog for user name and email address. 76.Extended $portfree(port,ip) so that you can specify an ip address. If not specified, all active interfaces are checked as before. An adapter name can also be used instead of an ip address. 77.Added $bindip(N|ip) identifier. If N is specified, lists active network adapters with properties .name, .ip, .loopback. If an ip address is specified, returns best adapter for connecting to that ip address. 78.Updated to OpenSSL 0.9.8n library. 79.Updated installer to offer a portable install option that can be used to run mIRC on a USB flash drive. 80.Added support for whois numeric 729. 81.Added "Invalid certificate" disconnect message in the event of an SSL connection failing due to an invalid certificate. If there is a DNS pool, mIRC will now continue to retry the connection. 82.Changed /localinfo to report an error if you try to use an invalid switch. Also fixed /localinfo not setting/saving the local info results correctly across server windows. 83.Fixed hotlink shift-key display bug. 84.Fixed logfile bug when window is switched between mdi/desktop. 85.Added $file().sig property, checks digital signature of a file. 86.Added check for foreground/background colors in control codes in text.

default schemes are added back to the list. 88.Changed position of history menu in file and favorites menus. 89.Added /close -t switch, closes all status windows. If used with -i switch, closes only if not connected/connecting to a server. 90.Channels history is now saved across sessions to the [chanhist] section in mirc.ini. 91.Fixed tips display bug that caused tip width to be smaller than necessary, shortening the title text. 92.Fixed SSL warning dialog bug, was not showing the actual error message in some cases when a certificate error was detected. 93.Fixed /var gpf bug. 17/10/2008 - mIRC v6.35 Changes: 1.Fixed nickname bug where very long nicknames (hundreds of characters in length) sent by the server would cause mIRC to gpf. 2.Updated to PCRE v7.8 and OpenSSL 0.9.8i libraries. 3.Added script editor option to disable line numbers. 4.Fixed /toolbar bug where setting a bitmap for a default button was not working correctly. 5.Added custom dialog support for "rich" editbox property that allows an arbitrary "limit" on the amount of text. 6.Fixed window listbox display bug when moving the horizontal scrollbar all the way to the right. 08/08/2008 - mIRC v6.34 Changes: 1.Fixed if/while bracket priority bug which affected the parsing of if/while statements. 2.Fixed text display bug where the last character in a line was being chopped off. 3.Changed the fast update display method. 4.Fixed tips display bug. 5.Fixed copy messages to query bug. 6.Fixed /drawrot rounding error bug. 7.Fixed treebar/switchbar server sorting display bug. 18/07/2008 - mIRC v6.33 Changes: 1.Fixed $istok() not returning error if too many parameters supplied. 2.Fixed /scon returning wrong error message. 3.Fixed window positions not being saved correctly for certain types of windows. 4.Fixed tab completion issue with long text/identifier values. 5.Fixed Channel Central dialog excepts/invites bug, now looks for +eI modes in the CHANMODES token as well as EXCEPTS and INVEX tokens. 6.Fixed reload logs feature displaying session information twice on reloading a log file. 7.Fixed $calc() returning +/-0 in some situations. 8.Improved handling of hotlinks enclosed in brackets. 9.Fixed server ports bug when using toolbar connect button. 10.Fixed color display bug in tips title/message text. 11.Fixed text display bug due to incorrect text width measurement with some fonts/characters, now using new method to measure text width. 12.Changed $window().sbstate/tbstate to return button status even if the corresponding bar is hidden. 13.Fixed $hfind/$regml regex bug.

This required the following extension to the DCC transfer protocol: If mIRC sees that it is sending or receiving a file with a size larger than a 32bit value, it sends and expects to receive 64bit acks. In all other respects, the protocol is unchanged. Note that all previous versions of mIRC are unable to either send or receive such large files. 21.Changed file transfer CPS calculation method, now reflects the real average CPS over the last few seconds. 22.Improved the way the "Total Max Cps" feature throttles transfer speeds. 23.Increased the maximum allowed DCC Send packet size.

This means that even if it receives no acks at all, mIRC will still transfer the file. If "Fast Send" is enabled, mIRC will attempt to send packets as fast as it can. 26.Fixed regex identifiers hiding output of called identifiers by default - they now require . prefix in calling alias. 27.Fixed /server switches not being remembered on an automatic retry connection attempt after a disconnection. 28.Fixed server connection not remembering SSL status if you disconnect and then reconnect to a server. 29.Fixed switchbar display button-sorting display bug. 30.Added $window().tbtext for window treebar text. 31.Added /editbox -vqN switches, where -v prevents the editbox contents from being changed and -qN enables/disables/toggles second editbox. 32.Added /var -g switch, sets global variable values. 33.Added $timer().pause property. 34.Added $input() 'm' switch which allows you to include multiple "text" parameters and to display them in a combobox.

can use the Alt+Enter key combination. 46.Changed Status Window editbox to reflect single/multi/auto editbox settings. 47.Fixed UTF-8 text-wrapping display bug. 48.Fixed SSL certificate caching bug when maximum cache size exceeded. 21/05/2008 - mIRC v6.32 Changes: 1.Fixed /did -o CRLF bug. 2.Fixed /log -f not being able to handle quotes. 3.Fixed /toolbar default icons bug with toolbar background pictures. 4.Fixed notify icon white pixels bug with a black background in the treebar. 5.Fixed script editor buttons not displaying icons when running under Windows Vista Classic Theme. 6.Fixed listbox height in SSL dialog. 7.Fixed script initialization warning bug. 8.Changed /drawpic bitmap allocation method to speed up @window displays. 9.Fixed $tip help file bug. 10.Fixed /toolbar not being compatible with toolbar buttons bitmap. 11.Updated to PNG 1.2.29, PCRE v7.7, and OpenSSL 0.9.8g libraries. 12.Standardized and extended string lengths throughout mIRC to allow the use of longer variables, channel and nick names, and other items. 13.Optimized $strip() control codes routine, used through-out mIRC. 14.Added "Check for Updates" item to Help menu. mIRC also checks for updates once a day on startup. This can be turned off in the updates dialog. 15.mIRC now displays the wait cursor when dialogs are opened and closed as a busy indicator, mainly for when mIRC is run from a USB drive. 16.Fixed /drawrot -b background color bug. 17.Fixed text display moving backwards bug with certain fonts. 18.Fixed mouse wheel handling to properly process slow/fast scrolling with high resolution mice. 19.Fixed status window log menu bug on a clean install. 20.Fixed blank lines in window listboxes not being displayed correctly. 21.Added /set -k switch, keeps current -uN setting for a variable.

35.Fixed script editor shortcuts not working when other dialogs open. 36.Fixed MDI flickering bug when "Move status window to top" option is enabled in Window Order dialog. 37.Fixed treebar focus bug when selecting item in treebar while mIRC is not active application. 38.Fixed $mp3() handling of malformed mp3 headers. 39.Fixed multi-byte text-wrapping display bug. 40.Fixed minor bug in UTF-8 selective encoding routine. 41.Changed Channel Central design slightly.

However, if the installer or mIRC find mirc.ini in the same folder as mirc.exe they will use the mirc.exe folder for all settings. Users installing over an old version of mIRC should therefore see no change in behavior. The installer is now also aware of administrator and standard user accounts and installs mIRC accordingly. 21.Fixed command prefix /!. parsing inconsistencies across routines. 22.Fixed "// echo hello" being parsed as "//echo hello".

Also irc:// links are now only added to the Current User registry, not the local machine registry and this is only done when mIRC is run, not by the installer. The -service command line switch has been removed from the help file though it is still supported under 95/98/ME. 31.mIRC no longer uses an internal uninstaller, instead the install program now places an uninstall.exe in the mIRC folder. 32.Fixed dialog table definition not being able to call local aliases if dialog was opened from the command line. 33.Extended custom dialog "tab id" parameter to allow id to be an

alias/identifier. 34.Fixed comments not being parsed correctly in the users list. 35.Fixed mouse cursor display bug during mark/copy. 36.Added internal U3 support to mIRC. mIRC looks for these command line parameters -appStart, -appStop, and -hostCleanUp, and looks for U3_HOST_EXEC_PATH and U3_APP_DATA_PATH environment variables. 37.Fixed ini storage bug when using -portable switch. 38.Changed -portable command line switch behavior. Now makes mIRC both 1) avoid use of the registry and 2) use the executable folder as the mirc.ini folder. 39.Fixed /if parser not reporting invalid operator for => and =<, and added not support for !> !<= etc. 40.Fixed window display bug when rejoining an already joined channel. 41.Fixed /writeini and /remini not reporting an error if they were unable to write to the file. 42.Added support for positioning Treebar at top/bottom of mIRC window. 43.Added support for network specific notify nicks.

Alt+O, Alt+B, etc. 52.Added support for notify list display in treebar, option enabled via treebar popup menu. 53.Added treebar menu option to use System menus or Window menus for right-clicked treebar items. System menus are the default. Toggle by holding shift key while right-clicking. 54.Added $menutype and $menucontext to supplement $menu. They are available during popup menu creation and indicate the menu type and context of the menu being created. 55.Changed left-click method on treebar items, it takes one click to open and close windows now. 56.Fixed issues with /mkdir and $isdir(). $isdir() will now only accept folder names, whereas previously it was accepting filenames as well. 57.Changed status window icon so that you can now tell when it is connected, connecting, logging on, or disconnecting. 58.Alt+LeftClick no longer changes the status window icon, instead it now adds a down arrow to the button. When clicked it displays a popup menu of hidden windows. 59.The status window title in switchbar/treebar now always shows the network/server name, even when not connected. 60.Added Buffer menu to custom @window system menu. 61.Changed the way files are renamed/copied/deleted to resolve file issues experienced by some users. 62.Fixed favorites menu recent channels history bug. 63.Changed the way $active works, was not consistent before.

64.Changed on ACTIVE so that it always triggers when a window gets the focus, was not triggering in all situations before. 65.Fixed /unload not halting script on error. 66.Added treebar support for spacebar to pop up menu for selected item. 67.Fixed $wrap() bug not handling bold control codes across multiple lines correctly. 68.If an incoming notice is displayed in more than one window eg. in common channels or the active window, windows are now highlighted only if necessary. 69.Added /cnick -f switch that forces the addition of a new entry to the list instead of updating an existing nick. 70.Fixed relative path bug when handling short paths. 71.Improved error handling in /load command. 72.Added Notify and Urls List items to windows order dialog, affects position of these items in treebar. 73.Added support for on ^TABCOMP, triggers before a $id or %var is evaluated. 74.Changed $fserv() to $fserve(), old identifier still supported but no longer documented. 75.Fixed MDI background display flickering bug. 76.The /setlayer command can now set the transparency of the main mIRC window. 77.When in the script editor mIRC no longer considers itself the active application, this allows flash/beep/etc. events to trigger. 78.All buttons that select/display files/folders now display the whole file/path with ellipsis if necessary. 79.Fixed nick color list freeze issue, instead of updating all nicks immediately when colors change, now only updates them when they are visible. 80.Moved highlight dialog to address book and added regex support. 81.Fixed options dialog memory leak. 82.Fixed "Move status window..." bug in Group dialog. 83.Fixed wildcard matching bug. 84.Added support for tips, text balloons that pop up near the Windows tray to notify you of various events such as incoming messages or users in your notify list coming on or leaving IRC. Tips only appear when mIRC is not the active application and are hidden the moment mIRC becomes active. Tips can be configured in the Options/Windows/Options dialog. The Highlight dialog in the Address Book also supports tips for matched items. Tips can also be scripted using the $tip() identifier: $tip(name,title,text,delay,iconfn,iconpos,alias,wid) Returns Nth position of tip if successful, zero if not. name - name of the tip title - title text - text delay - from 3 to 60 seconds iconfn - icon filename iconpos - icon position in filename alias - alias to perform when tip is double-clicked wid - id of window to which tip belongs

name, title, text are required. delay, iconfn, iconpos, alias, and wid can be $null. $tip(name/N) can be used to list existing tips. Notes: Right-click in a tip pauses the time-out for all tips. Shift+Left-click in a tip closes that tip. Double-click in a tip triggers the alias if one is defined, or opens the associated window if not. The tip automatically fits the text into it and will at most widen to quarter of your screen width. New tips are queued until older tips time-out. Tips time-out at a slower rate if they are not at the head of the queue. If no wid is specified, the tip belongs to the status window of the currently active connection. A tip is closed if the window it belongs to is made active or is closed, or if mIRC is made active and the tip belongs to an MDI window. 85.Fixed /showmirc -nt bug minimizing mIRC but not activating the next application window. 86.Fixed $mp3() not handling Unicode tags correctly. 87.Added $fullscreen identifier, returns 1 if an application is running in full screen mode, 0 if not. This applies to game and non-game applications. 88.Fixed agent speaking bug. 89.Extended /echo -iN to allow maximum N of 256. 90.By popular request, changed logging method back to old method, no longer uses name.N.log filename format. 91.For new installs the "download" folder is now named "downloads" and a "scripts" folder is created by default. 92.Added $ebeeps identifier, returns sounds enabled/disabled state. 93.Updated tab display routines to use XP/Vista themes. 94.Fixed menubar spaces bug, all scripts are now aligned on load using same align routine as editor. 95.Removed support for mirc.hlp file on F1 key, only mirc.chm is used now. 96.Fixed editor "monitor file changes" bug with .ini files. 97.When run under Vista mIRC now checks for a corresponding virtual store folder at startup. Vista creates virtual store folders for older non-Vista compatible applications, such as older versions of mIRC. If mIRC finds such a folder, it displays a dialog box allowing you to retrieve your old mIRC files and settings. 98.Added $sha1(text|&binvar|filename,[N]) identifier, where N = 0 for plain text (default), 1 for &binvar, 2 for filename. 99.Updated to PNG 1.2.18 and PCRE v7.2 libraries and to OpenSSL 0.9.8e support files. 100.The about dialog now displays a second page that loads from the mIRC website. No information is sent to the server. 101.Fixed custom dialog icon definitions not setting %var values correctly on exit. 102.Changed compiler optimization settings resulting in slightly

larger executable. 103.Added Mode menu item to the View menu in the menubar that allows you to switch between Normal and Compact modes. Compact mode makes mIRC behave like a messenger with the treebar filling the main window, all windows opening on the desktop, and so on. The full versions.txt file has become too large to include in the distribution, so only the version information for the last version or so is being included from now on. You can still download the full versions.txt file from the mIRC website. 28/02/95 - mIRC v2.1a First public release.
