Q: jabbaIRC crashes on startup with messages like "Can't find class: java.beans.XMLDecoder"
A: You are using J2RE (Java2 Runtime Environment) version 1.3 or less. Get J2RE 1.4 for your operating system.
Q: Is scripting support planned in jabbaIRC?
A: I don't think so. For several reasons, including these:
- Java is already an interpreted language. I don't want to be redundant.
- Besides 1, I look at scripting like this: well, let's think that someone (or me) will implement scripting engine, make many hooks and stuff. So, if you will want to code you will have to learn this language, right? Well, why don't you learn Java and compile plugins for jabbaIRC instead? The tools are free and some people are even get paid for programming (not jabbaIRC case, but hint, hint). ;)
Q: I want to help you develop the client (write code, make an
I18N for some language or whatever). Is it possible?
A: Sure, why not? Send me an e-mail and we'll talk about it.
Q: All right, I see BlueSteel but where's the Magnum?
A: Sorry, it is not finished yet. I'm not even supposed to talk about it
right now.
