tetrinet is a new thing on irc - it sort of works - thanks to dcraig for letting me know about it!!




although sometimes this horrible event  happens:

ERROR: bad textwin size (94,-6)




! IRC server - because we can !

The ircd (nefarious-1.0.1.tgz) above is native to the iphone and works!

The clients irssi and bitchx we ported a while ago.  However, we always wanted a native IRCD server 
[probably best not to ask the reasons why :)]

So we now have native code with help from our pals over at EvilNet and my old chums at AfterNET

Long may IRC find good friends!
