Orion is one of the most advanced pieces of software that i've created for myself. In order for it to work, a number of additional components, including IRC protocol handler had to be created. Orion has everything a modern IRC client should have and much more. It includes chat saving, encryption, integrated MP3 player or Winamp control and more. Program updates itself automatically from a web server with the help of a digital licence and a special update system, also written in Delphi. Orion has a plugin system that allows to expand its functionality, it also stores the entire interface in a DLL resource so it could be changed easily without changing the main executable. Orion also supports simple command scripting with integrated variables that allows to execute functions in DLL plugins or other program methods.
