AROS: IRC-client WookiChat 2.6b8 (beta)
James "jahc" Carroll has published an AROS-version of his MUI-based IRC-client Wookiechat. The archive only contains the program. Additionally you need the complete distribution of Wookiechat 2.5.
This first beta version still contains some minor problems:
- The window size changes if a "Tab" is closed
- Some windows have a transparent background. This bug should be fixed soon. Meanwhile the author recommends to set a background picture in the MUI preference for WookieChat for the seperate windows
- The lower edge of the main window partly cannot be seen
