General Info
You are free to use any IRC client to access Foxlight Tavern's chat room but only the web page chat (java client) will support all of the features.
If you want to use a different client the settings are as follows:
Server: nadroj.us
Port: 6250
Channel: #Foxlight

Note: If you use mIRC or Pirch98, look under Sounds or Triggers below for info on how to enable some of the java features.
The list on the right in chat displays users currently in Foxlight. Your nickname is displayed in bold. If you select one or more nicknames from the list then your messages (and sounds) will only go to those users.
If you double click on a nickname in the list, a separate PM (Private Message) window will open up and you will be able to "whisper" to that user.
There are three special characters that precede some nicknames:
  @ Indicates that user has OPs (OPerator status) in Foxlight Tavern and can use various commands to control it. Their 
  chat will be in blue. Only Lighthouse (A Channel Bot) & Zin will have Operator Status.
+ Indicates a user with "voice", only users with voice can speak in a moderated room.  In Foxlight Tavern, this is 
  generally just used as a badge of honor.  Their chat will be in green.
An icon called an "avatar".  They are explained later in this help file.


At the bottom is the input line. You can send a message by typing it on this line. A few basic commands you can enter are:
/float This opens chat in a new resizable window

/nick newnickname Change your nickname

/me message Sends an action (red) message

/whois nickname Shows you information about this nickname

/quit Leave the Pub and disconnect from the server





There are also predefined actions and sounds available from the Actions and Sounds dropdowns under the input line.
 
The Commands dropdown contains various tools that you can use... explore and ask if you have any questions.
 
The gray tabs at the extreme bottom list the various rooms or PMs that you are currently in.  To switch between them simply click on the tab.  If you are in one and someone says something in one of the other rooms or PMs that you are connected to, the gray tab will turn white to signify that someone has said something there.  To close a room or a PM when you are done there, click on the black X in the upper right hand corner.  NOTE:  Not the X on the top of the window itself, but the one that is in the gray bar.


Buttons Above the Chat:

Session
Displays your current session settings. Allows you to change most of your settings even after your session has begun.

Float
Removes the Java applet from the html page, and places it in a separate window. This is useful if you want to use your browser to view other pages while you chat. When the Java Client is "floating", the button toggles its meaning and contains the word "Embed". If it is pressed while in this state, it causes the Java applet to be placed back into the page from which it came, or closed if you are not displaying that page.

Help
Displays this help page.NON-FUNCTIONING AT THIS TIME.

Avatars (WORKING ON INSTALL AT PRESENT)

You will notice some chatters have a small icon next to their nickname in the users list and when they chat.  That is called an "avatar" and you may set one for yourself by opening the Commands drop down list and selecting the Avatar Panel from it.  That will open up a box that has a bunch of icons in it.  Just click on any one of them to set it for yourself.  Note:  Do not select the Z one... or be ready to face the wrath of the Zin. <G>
If you do select an avatar and want to keep it for future chats here, it is advantageous to then register your nickname as outlined below.  That way, next time you return to the Pub, the avatar will automatically be placed by your nickname when you enter chat.


Nickname Registration
To register your nickname at Foxlight, type...

        /ns register password email

Replacing "password" and "email' with your own info.

After receiving a response back that it was successful, type...

        /ns set protect on

That will stop others from using your nickname.

I hope you enjoy your time at the Foxlight Tavern, for more goes into this than you'll ever know. ;)
