The world probably doesn't need another DOS IRC client, but here it is
anyway:

All you need to run is an 8088 class machine or better, an Ethernet card
with a packet driver, and 256KB of RAM. (You can get it to run in 192KB
fairly easily, but you will have to give up the backscroll buffer.)
I've tested it with:
- A PC XT with a 3Com 3C503
- A 386-30 with an NE2000 clone
- A PCjr with a Xircom PE3-10BT parallel port-to-Ethernet adapter
And a few other people have run it on other hardware ..
I wrote the TCP/IP stack that it uses. The IRC client is a way to get
more testing for it. :-)
Thanks,
Mike
