To install EZIRC just run SETUP.CMD. And follow the on screen instructions. =========================================================================== It will install to the current path, or allow you to enter a path. It will also ask you to enter your UserID, Realname and NickName. Your UserID is your ID on your ISP. IE if your email address is xyz@provider.com your ID is xyz NOTE: If you have an SET USER= in your config.sys it will load it. SET USER should only contain you ID not your full email address. The Realname field is what ever you want. A typical one might be your Firstname and City. ie Bill (Washington) Your NickName is again what you want. It is a handle or alias you will be know as. Try to be original, and if you find your nick in use when you get on IRC, pick a new one. Nicknames are a MAX of 9 char, and can not contain spaces. For a space, use a '_'. Don't use the | char, as it is used in scripts to return multiple commands and could cause you problems. NOTE: After Install, read the Online DOCS that will be installed to your desktop. They contain additional INSTALL Notes.
