Installation

How to install AmIRC

It is strongly suggested that you use AmIRC's installer script. This will make sure all necessary files are in the correct place and will make sure you will have AmIRC up and running in no time. The installer script requires that you have the Amiga installer utility (version 43.3 or later). Once you've unpacked the AmIRC archive you can start the installation by simply clicking on the install icon in the AmIRC drawer. The installation script will ask you some questions, depending on the experiecne level you've selected at the start, simply answer them and the installer will do the rest.

If you cannot or prefer not to use the installer utility, a manual install is relatively simple, just move the contents of the archive to a directory of your choice and it's ready to use. If you have met the requirements for the optimized version of AmIRC, delete the AmIRC file and rename "AmIRC020" as "AmIRC". You might want to copy the "MUI" directory of the AmIRC distribution to MUI:Libs/MUI/ to avoid version confusion.
