Known Problems

1.16 - 4 Mar 1996

If you have any hard information about any of these problems please let me know
ASAP so that I can clear them....

-  Clear does not work - this is a tk problem I think and I have not yet
   got a work-around for it. JKO tells me has this on his list of things to
   fix. It is not fixed in tk4.1 A fix for tsi seems a long way off.

-  DCC problems - there are still reported problems with DCC but I cannot
   reproduce them to find their cause. It is reported that zircon cannot DCC
   to mIRC clients.

-  Reported slow start up - perhaps a tcl/tk problem. Make sure you have at
   least patch 1 applied to tcl and tk. I cant reproduce this.

-  Help system. There isn't one

-  The history mechanism doesn't handle some recalls properly, namely
   lines containing ircII formatting characters and lines generated
   using morse/rot13/reverse.

-  Rumours of a strange problem when servers suddenly disconnect. I
   haven't seen it or been able to reproduce it.

-  People DEC Alphas running OSF/1 seem to experience some trouble with
   the X resource settings - buttons dont look 3D and checkbuttons don't
   show up as checked. I dont' have an Alpha so I cant check it out - sounds
   like a tk problem.

- Problems with option settings for individual tags
