I find that unlikely. CONNECT is in RFC1459 and is a standard oper command supported by virtually every IRC daemon out there. If the client does not support it as /connect--as the traditional UNIX implementations such as ircII and EPIC do--it will have some other command...but all the documentation out there will say, "Do /connect." It's not unlikely that this would be the case for the later implementations such as mIRC, given that most if not all have carried on the tradition of prefixing commands with the '/' character, which came from ircII, and probably from MUD clients prior to that. But, in any case, the question is academic. If your client doesn't directly support /connect, or gives it some different semantics, then there will be a / command that will issue the IRC protocol-level CONNECT message, or a script that will add that functionality, and you should make use of that mechanism instead. -- Kevin L.
