Here are some of the mirc commands that will be very useful.
/uwho Ever wondered who you're actually speaking with?
/whois {nick} command shows you a lot of cryptic info in the Status window but the /uwho {nick} command will open a clear and informative User Central. Give it a try! You can also store address info of your friends in the User Central for future reference.
ALT + Minus Press the key combination ALT and 'minus' simultaneous to access the windows' System Menu's (found under that little horizontal bar in every top left corner of ANY window in mIRC and windows). Here you can set the fonts you like, the logging options, save the buffer and set various other things for private and channel conversations.
/clear Use the /clear command to flush away all old text you dont want to read again. /clearall clears all text in all windows!
Doskey Remember that old doskey feature under DOS? mIRC has it too :-) Use the arrow up/down keys, eventually combined with SHIFT, to recall old commands and text lines.
/channel The /channel command will open the Channel Central that displays all modes and bans set on your current channel.
/pdcc Use the undocumented /pdcc {bytes} command to speed up your DCC sessions! It will pump your data packages away to the reciever, ahead of the confirmation of arrival. Try it, it works :-) Something like /pdcc 20000 will do fine.
