Thanks Walter, I tried
When I click on the link, in the middle of the page,
there is a broken link saying I need to download the
plugin.
When I click on this link
(
http://plugins.netscape.com/plug-in_finder.adp?application/x-java-vm)
I get a message telling me there were no plug in found
What is missing ?
------
Loo gave me that address
http://www.pure-mac.com/irct.html
Alvaro made me download and install AthenaIRC: 2.1.0
for MacOS 9.x the other day.
Apparently one of the few for Mac OS 9 and free ?
As nickname and username I put Anthere
As Quit message : I put nothing (I do not know what I
am supposed to put)
In the connection settings, I put
Serveur : irc.freenode.net (as written on
fr.wikipedia)
Port 6667 (well, that was default)
Password : none (because I know not what I should
write)
At what command to put at login : I put nothing (I
have no idea what to put)
At what to write at logoff : I put nothing (I have no
idea what to put)
At Motd display : I put Display in dialogue (other
options don't post, or post to console)
+i invisible is checked
+w receive operator message is not
+s receive server message is not (these were options
per default)
In autoexecute : I put nothing (I do not know what to
put)
In short, this is all chinese to me.
When I try to connect, I have this message
*** Closing Link: Anthere (Connection Timed Out)
*** Attempting reconnect in 5 seconds
*** Opening IDENT Socket, waiting for connection
*** Connected to irc.freenode.net
*** Ident Connected
*** Looking up your hostname...
*** Ident Request Recieved
*** Found your hostname, welcome back
*** Checking ident
*** Got ident response
*** Some command did not include enough parameters
This is also chinese to me
-------
What do I do ? Ideas for me to be able to join the
wikipedia community discussions ?
err...the name of the missing plugin perhaps ?
