Atomik AppleScript for Ircle
Making IRC Scripts Easy!
Atomik 3.0a1 (2,667k
MacBinary), released on the 1st of January, 2005.
MacOS X
The release of the first alpha of version 3 of Atomik marks the first time you can run all of Atomik under MacOS X. This version will actually only run under MacOS X.
I will be posting code and hosting the downloading of
Atomik on Sourceforge.net. You can sign up there to be notified of changes to the project.
What it Does
Atomik is an AppleScript™ that loads in Ircle and provides automatic channel management and interface enhancements.
Type "/load atomik" in Ircle to load Atomik and "/prefs" to set it up using the preferences application. After this Atomik will manage all the channels and connections (up to 10) that are active in its preferences. Typing "/unload" will unload Atomik and save its preferences for the next time you load it. Atomik provides an easy to use interface to configure the swear kick/bans, flood kick/bans, auto-op, auto greets, notify list, notes function, nick grab, seen function, notice management, auto away, and all the other useful features that are built in.
No more hassle typing obscenely long commands into Ircle to configure a script or looking up commands in large manuals that you are only going to use once. Atomik has one easy to use dialog that configure all its functionality.

System Requirements
- Mac OS X
- Ircle 3.1.1 or later
This is Freeware
Atomik is being released as freeware. I have done this because I think it is about time I put something back in to the great Macintosh comunity that I found online. If you would like to be notified of new versions, please contact me through the sourceforge.net project page, or see me online on oz.org (server au.oz.org) in channel #macintosh.
When I was starting to create my script, it was of great annoyance to me that all the halfway decent scripts out there were all released as run-only. This slowed down my development time greatly. As such, I am releasing the source to Atomik to anyone who wants it. The source is being released under the GPL.
