Hello,
the username length is set to 20 in the source code. (defines.h CLIENT_USER_LEN) I need to use authentication on our irc server. But unfortunately our user id that we can use is the email address. There is no other shorter uid yet. The email addresses are of course longer then 20 for most of the users.
Do you see a problem of increasing this value to 50? Except that max messages length will be shorter. I mean if I would change it, do other parts of the code need to be changed? Or could there maybe strange problems in whatever cases? I tested it and it works in general, but I still wanted to ask.
Thanks Marco
