It wasn't you I was talking about Colin, it was someone else about a week ago whose nich I don't recall offhand now. He was telling me I shouldn't expect "stupid hacks" like epic's wserv to work with gnome-terminal's tabs and that if I wanted graphical IRC I should stop hanging on to a relic like epic and use xchat like any other sane person would. I did not take to that too well, as you can imagine. Yesterday I made a comment about the problem and that I was using MGT as a workaround, and that's where you came in above.. I didn't mean you, sorry for not being clear. -- Joseph Carter <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> My opinions are always right <knghtbrd> Nintendo Declares GCN Most Popular Console Ever <knghtbrd> Who are they kidding? <Mercury> knghtbrd: Stock holders?
