Oh goodness me, I've been agitating for this for absolutely AGES
The lack of a complete help file is, in my view, by far mIRC's weakest aspect.
Way back in
November 2003 I issued a challenge for anyone to find another piece of software where it was necessary to go review documentation for an eight (now nine) year-old version to learn not only how to use a feature that is still current, but that the feature exists at all! So far, I have had not a single response...
I still find the lack of a truly comprehensive, updated help file to be a question of professionalism and respect for customers. I
know that others disagree, but I do not regard "well it's in
versions.txt" as a satisfactory answer - not least because the
complete versions.txt is not distributed with new mIRC executables.
</rant>
Oh and before anyone asks... this didn't stop me registering mIRC, which I think is a great program. It is something I feel quite strongly about tho'
