IRC+Dot Get???

Hi Guys,

Recently came across this site called dotget.org used for file sharing through IRC, anyone know anything about it??

Also,as am new to IRC could anyone write a tutorial for file-sharing through IRC and also using dotgetdotorg script if anyone knows it, that would be helpful to IRC n00bs like me.

Regards,
DC.

Hmmmm Looks interesting. I will have to reinstall mIRC and give it a test drive.
BTW here is the link for anyone else who wants to have a look see.

.GET

@Darthcoder, i’ll write a tut (working with IRC as a p2p client) …, wait for some 2-3 days and it will be done.

It would have been promising, but it only searches one single channel it seems :frowning:

In short, this is what you can do to get files off IRC

  1. Get an IRC client - irssi or x-chat on linux and HydraIRC or mIRC on windows are good ones.
  2. Visit www.packetnews.com or www.ircspy.com … search for the file you need.
  3. If your IRC client is integrated into your browser (like mIRC integrates into IE), you can simply click on the packet number (like #4) in the listing at packetnews, this will open your client and connect to the server and join the channel. The CTCP trigger will be placed in your copy-paste buffer, paste it, and accept the file.
  4. If your client is not integrated into the browser, simply not the server, channel, and CTCP trigger. Connect, join, trigger :wink:

On mIRC, you will have to set some options in the DCC section to allow files to be recieved. Hmm … where is RYB’s tut when you need it :face_with_tongue:
