This release reliably connects to more IRC servers, faster. Twenty of
the typical IRC commands have been implemented for die-hard users.
Rudimentary plugin support has been added; try /itunes in a room to
test the basic iTunes plugin. French localization has been added. A
problem which occurred which using an Azerty keyboard and prevented
typing characters with accents has been fixed. Connections are now
saved in the Connection Manager during the first launch.
In this version, the toolbar configuration crashes (the most reported crash) were fixed. The Emoticon and Encoding toolbar items now honor the "Use Small Icons" toolbar setting. The Connect toolbar item now opens the "New Connection" dialog when no connection is selected. There are IRC command queue tweaks to make things "snappier". There is support for password protected servers. Nicknames with special characters now get encoded and are saved properly. This fixes the "|" (pipe character) bug.
