Mac mIRC: Running mIRC on OSX with Wine

I found the mac native IRC clients lacking. So let's run mIRC with Wine...

Installing Wine, Mirc and OpenSSL

  • Download the [mIRC installer][6] and put it somewhere safe.
  • Download the [OpenSSL installer][5] (openssl-0.9.8y-setup.exe as of May 2014)
  • Download the [Wine for Darwin and Mac OSX][7] installer. Mount the DMG, run 'Install Wine.
  • Run the newly installed /Applications/Wine.app
  • Select 'Wine Config' from the Wine Menu Screenshot
