Answer: mIRC is written in a mixture of C/C++ in pure Win32 code and compiled under Visual Studio. It was originally compiled under Borland C++.

Wouldn't it be fun if mIRC were written entirely in mSL? :P


Well. At least I won lunch.
Good philosophy, see good in bad, I like!

Essentially a client written in C/C++ that enables the mSL, then everything else is written from mSL?
Considering that mSL wouldn't exist in the first place if it wasn't for the C/C++ smile

Imagine the freedom you could have then, making pretty much everything, probably diving into open source of the actual mSL code provided for UI and back-end. The possibilities...
