In reply to m0viefreak, I did try Fixedsys Excelsior at one point, but for some reason, I still did not get bolded text with it.

To Khaled, is the font-linking something that can be enabled/disabled by users or something you would have to modify in mIRC's code? Also, I completely agree that Wine needs to be improved instead of the applications, but at least mIRC runs smoothly with Wine. I'd be willing to help do testing on what works or doesn't work under Wine, but I am unsure as to what needs testing. Most of the things I do with mIRC have functioned properly, although I have noticed that the option for mIRC to monitor script file changes doesn't work. But this never worked with any mIRC 6.x either as long as I have been running mIRC under Wine.
