Flash Client Upgrade
We have, for quite a while now, offered TFlash as our web based IRC client. This was originally written as a quick replacement for the Java client we used previously. TFlash has, however, stood up to the test of time and has proved to be a very popular client amongst users.
We have now decided that it is time to upgrade TFlash to make it bigger and better. To this end, we contracted Mike Parks (BigRedPimp) of thinkrightgames.com to carry out the work. He is an incredibly experienced Flash developer and has made an exceptional job of the new Flash Client.
Today we have launched this new client and it should now be embedded on all of the sites that had the old Flash client embedded.
Development of the client started in early December and, since then, a team of testers have tirelessly tested it and removed bugs. We thank them for their help. If you do however find a bug, please report it using the address at the top of the new flash client.
BigRedPimp has put in a huge amount of effort with this project and we thank him unreservedly for his time and for doing this project for such a low cost. We are glad to call him a friend of GeekShed.
If you have any questions about the new Flash client, please come and see us in #help on irc.geekshed.net.

Flash IRC doesnt recognize all keybord settings. I believe that it overrides the default keybord setting by US keybord setting.
For example:
If i want to use “/” character, I press shift+7 in my keybord. However, now when I press shift+7 in flashirc, it types “&” character.
