Need help with Indy Comps

[Skonk]

Hi guys, i'm quite new to delphi (well, programming in general), and i just got delphi 6. I'm trying to make an IRC server that i'll later add some other features to for use by me and a group of friends.
So far i can start the server and connect to it using mIrc, i can send some basic msg's to mirc and i'v created a log of all the commands send by the client in an attemt to work out what to do. My main problem is that i just dont have a clue how to actually start a channel. I can rescieve the Join #XXXXX request but i dont know how to use that to create a chat room. So if anyone could give me a starting point, i dont need a solution, just help getting going.

Thanks.

James.

Hi James,
I can't help you directly but I would advise you either pull apart a working example (There must be a Delphi IRC app with source somewhere) or you take a look at the IRC RFC which will give you all the details you will need and more:
