    Reformatted and reindented files
    Rewrote the /join and /part commands in C++

Windows

    Fixed terminal resizing. (Increasing the size is ok.)
    The PDC library has been rebuilt with the option UTF8=Y which makes PDCurses ignore the system locale. So for Windows computers running Swirc UTF-8 is now forced. This means you should enable the option Use Unicode UTF-8 for worldwide language support. In order to do so under Windows 10:
        Language preferences
        Administrative language settings
        Change system locale
        Check the option and click OK
