To compile and install uirc-1.0.0:

As root run:
compile-script

It is not recommended to irc as root.
Make another user with adduser, for example:
adduser uircuser <ENTER>
Also unpack the .tgz there, change to diectory uirc-1.0.0 and run
install-script.
This will create a .uirc directory, private to that user.
The setup and log files will automatically go to that directory.

To start uirc:
uirc <ENTER>
Or:
uirc nick servername [port] <ENTER>

Edit ~/.uirc/uirc.setup for your favorite servers and nicks.

Once in uirc you can read the uirc.help file by typing /help <ENTER>

Alternatively if you cannot compile, you could just try to use
the precompiled uirc.
