        -::::  Announcing version 0, public revision 1 of IRCIT ::::-
                     IRC for the Information Terrorists


           IRCIT is a new and exciting IRC client aimed at narrow  base  of
         advanced  users.  It supports  multitude of new things, but at the
         same time tries to retain the existing heritage of IRC.  IRCIT can
         easily compete with major players in its class.
         It  currently  runs  on Linux-based  systems  and will not compile
         without modifications by non-GNUC-compatible compilers.


           Please notice this is _binary_ distribution only, if you aren't
         comfortable with  running  pre-compiled  binaries,  wait for some 
         other future release, maybe next one. This software is  somewhere
         between alpha-nearly-beta with all the negative things associated
         with such quality.

           Bellow is an LSM  entry  for IRCIT with a snapshot of  features
         that  should  immediately  appeal to you.

Title:          IRCIT, Internet Relay Chat client 
Version:        0.1
Entered-date:   25MAR98
Description:    IRCIT   (IRC  for the Information Terrorists)  is  a  non-
                trivial, full-featured, text-based   IRC  client   written
                primarily  for  Linux  users with console access.  It fea-
                tures integrated GUI system (menu system, scrolling  lists
                with context-sensitive menus, forms, colors, color-editor,
                status-lines...).  The  basic  IRC  protocol  is   mosltly
                implemented  plus   many  implementation-specific details.
                There is also  built-in  party-line, accessible via telnet
                with  some basic commands.  With IRCIT you can access  any
                text-based  server from within IRCIT and at the same  time
                benefit  from  the  editting   capabilities  and   history
                support.  IRCIT  can be detached  from your  terminal  and
                run  in   the   background   with  the  ability  to resume
                your   session   later.   Plus   many   more   interesting
                details.
