Simple explanation of jmIrc options

Configuration
- Nick: This is the unique nickname you will use in IRC
- Alternative nick: This is tried automatically if nick is in use, can be left empty
- IRC server: Hostname of the server you will connect to
- IRC server port: TCP port of the used IRC server, usually 6667 is a safe bet
- Channels: Channels you want to join to automatically after connecting, separated with comma (',')
- Real name: Your real name shown to other IRC users who ask for it
Advanced
- Use status header: You can choose if you want to show the status header on top of screen by default or not
- Use timestamp: You can choose if you want to show the timestamp on all windows by default or not
- Use socket poll: Set this only if it doesn't work otherwise, ie. on Motorola V525, Nokia 6800, 6810, 7200 or Samsung C100
- Use mIRC colours: Set this if you want to show mIRC colours and other text features on channels
- Print unhandled input: Print unhandled server input to status window for debugging reasons
- Automatically detect UTF-8: Validate all input first as UTF-8 and use encoding just as a fallback. With this option a channel can have two character sets that work correctly.
- Always output UTF-8: With this option you always output UTF-8 regardless of chosen encoding, useful with automatic detect
- Character encoding: ISO-8859-1 is the usual encoding used, but you can also choose from other codepages
- Backbuffer lines: Sets the maximum lines in backbuffer per window, too large value can make the phone run out of memory
- Highlight string: The string you want to use for highlighting, usually this is your own nick
- Server password: This is for IRC servers that need a password, usually useful with IRC bouncers
HTTP Config:
- Use HTTP proxy server: Check this option to enable HTTP proxy support if your phone needs one, see FAQ for more details about your phone
- Proxy server: Hostname of the proxy server you want to use
- Proxy port: TCP port of the used proxy server, default is 8080 but may be different
- Proxy password: Password for the proxy server, you should know this yourself
- HTTP poll time (sec): This is the time how often HTTP proxy is polled, if set to 0 then only manual polling is used but this is not recommended
Keyboard options after connecting:
- 2 and 8 scroll the backbuffer up or down one row
- 4 and 6 change the window left or right
- 1 and 7 scroll the backbuffer to home or end
- 3 and 9 scroll the backbuffer up or down one page
- * is a shortcut to message writing
- 0 is a shortcut to favourite messages menu
- # enables or disables the status line on-the-fly
- Pressing 5 and # consecutively within one second enables or disables the keylock
