Post by stargazer989 »

it will run perfectly when someone fixes all the bugs that affect it and wine's testsuite includes more tests to avoid regressions.

it won't really run perfect cause i thought mIRC 6.16 did, but today ive been running compiz(it's rare that i do) and mIRC's been limping about all day... like the GUI would close but there would mirc.exe running and i'd have to kill it and see my nick <nick> quit (client exited)...

that's only with mIRC 6.16, mIRC 6.2x+ still have problems with the Scripts Editor causing it to crash upon loading the Scripts Editor (even it's a fresh install and there are no custom scripts loaded).
