This is a Wii U IRC client designed for use with an attached USB keyboard (supports 11 different country layouts).

Installation

Copy the wiiu folder to the root of the SD card.

(Optional) Install the forwarder channel with WUP Installer.

User guide

How to connect

Choose your keyboard layout: Tap the flag of the country that is closest to your keyboard layout.

Enter your username and password.

Enter the channel and server to connect to.

Commands

Commands the client understands:

/join [channel] - Will join a channel
/part [channel] - Will part a channel
/msg [nick] [message] - Will PM a nick with a message, creates a PM window for that nick
/nick [newnick] - Will change your nick, if the server lets you
/me [message] - Will perform ACTION
/ctcp [message] - Will send a ctcp message

Notes

Currently there is no Japanese OSK.

The client will open a new PM window if someone PMs you and will automatically switch you to that window on the first message.

Logs and messages are only shown for the channel you are currently in. If someone says something in a channel you are not currently viewing, you will not be notified at this time. You must cycle through the channels to that channel to see the message. The server notices are shown in the server channel, the server channel and PM channels are the only channels you can not /part.

Reconnection may require restarting the app.
