Ircle was originally written in [[Pascal (programming language)|Pascal]] by Olaf Titz[http://hyperarchive.lcs.mit.edu/HyperArchive/Abstracts/dev/src/ircle-151-p.hqx.txt] in 1993 and the source code released under the [[GPL]]. After version 1 Titz sold the code to Tijdgat who continued development privately, rewriting it in C and updating it for the then-new Power Macs. Ircle 3.0 was released in 1994.

Tijdgat announced in December 2005 that extensive work was underway to update Ircle for the [[iMac (Intel-based)|new iMacs with CPUs made by Intel]]. These (unspecified) upgrades will be [[backward compatible]] and thus usable on iMacs with older CPUs. However, development for older (pre [[Mac OS X]]) versions of the [[Mac OS]] will cease. (A characteristic of Ircle development had been that the program had thus far remained usable on older versions of the Mac OS.)
