To use with Yahoo Chat you must have YahELite help .  To use with IRC (Internet Relay Chat) you must have: mIRC  help  or PIRCH  help  or XiRCON help.  Here is a file of colors you can import via File->Import Colors: blendcolors.bin

YahCoLoRiZe is a free program for adding color-text to chat-rooms and for automatically formatting text from any source, such as song lyrics or poetry. You can then play the text back in a chat-room directly from YahCoLoRiZe. You can also specify background and foreground color via a pop-up color-dialog, and enter custom "Wings" to accentuate the text.  YahCoLoRiZe allows you to customize and be creative with text-borders. You can highlight sections of text for adding effects (bold, underline, italics, colors, and many other special text-effects).Version 4.00 has added the ability to edit/cut/paste/copy in the WYSIWYG (what you see is what you get) View!

Just double-click after you download the install-program (click the link above to download) and you are ready to process and play formatted text into a chat!

Here is a zip-file of ASCII art: (I am not sure of the content and am not responsible for anything offensive): ASCII-Art. To use ASCII-Art with YahCoLoRiZe: In the Width Tab check Auto. In the Format Tab check Left-Justify, check Borders, Uncheck Wings.

Here is an older version of mIRC mIRC 5.8.  mIRC servers list: servers.ini.  With a very old computer you may need to get riched20.dll & riched32.dll and copy them to C:\WINDOWS\System32.


**YahCoLoRiZe uses an Open Source component for Borland C++ Builder designed by Robert Dunn, TaeRichEdit.

(YahCoLoRiZe Security Code (English Version):  010B3F11).  Write down this code and compare it with the code YahCoLoRiZe reports when you click Help->Show Security Code, they should match!


Special instructions for using YahCoLoRiZe with YahELite

4. You should see the message EXTENSION ACTIVE in YahELite.  Now type in this command:

/ex test123

You should see "test123" appear in the YahCoLoRiZe window.

Example /ex Hello Chat-peeps!
