What would you use mouse gestures for in mIRC though? A browser is well suited to mouse gestures: its something you lounge back and browse with a mouse, you only need a few commands to navigate and in many cases of 'just browsing' don't have to use the keyboard at all.

mIRC is the exact opposite: its a chat program - designed for use with a keyboard, once you've joined a channel to chat you rarely have to use the mouse, its commands generally take parameters.

I suppose it would be cool to circle someones nick with the mouse and give them the virtual finger to send them on their way, but is it really practical?

[edit: the spelling made sense at the time :P]
