   I use ircII version 2.8.2 (19950405) and there are only 7bit
   characters.  So what is to do to get the ÄÖÜäöüß in irc?

/set trans latin_1
/set eight on

That should help you a bit. Try looking at the help pages for `trans'
and `eight', as well as the help page for `bind' if your keyboard
lacks your national characters.
