Project Information

The ClicksAndWhistles project began on 24th November 2007 with v1.0 of the client being released on 14th February 2008.

ClicksAndWhistles is written in C++ (Microsoft Visual Studio 2008) and currently uses the following libraries:

• C++ Standard Library (also known as STL) including TR1

• MFC

• Win32 SDK, GDI+

• zlib (1.2.3)

• OpenSSL (0.9.8k)

• NoFussXML

ClicksAndWhistles is currently being rewritten to use the new neogfx C++ GUI library instead of MFC; when finished the resultant executable should be smaller and installable without administrator privileges.  Until the rewrite is complete no outstanding feature requests or non-critical bug fixes can be implemented/resolved.

Source Code

The source code to the ClicksAndWhistles IRC engine is available here (pre v3.0 snapshot).

ClicksAndWhistles (v2.7.30) consists of approximately 84,000 lines of code (including whitespace/comments, excluding third party libraries).

Have an idea or suggestion to make ClicksAndWhistles better?
