irssi * ABOUT Irssi is an IRC client made with GTK+ toolkit and (optional) GNOME libraries. A small text mode version is also somewhat working, there's also a really simple daemon version which just loads "bot" plugin (which doesn't exist). I'd also like to see KDE version but someone else will have to do it. * FEATURES See COMMANDS file for list of all commands irssi knows. I've been asked quite a lot about why should one use irssi, what does it do that other IRC clients don't? Well, to tell you the truth, I have no idea :) Still I've got a lot of mails saying it's the best GUI IRC client they've ever used :) Let's see.. It should be easy to use, it has most of the features IRC client needs and it's pretty stable. Here's a small list of what it does: - Nice configuration :) Especially the color settings. - You can connect to multiple servers. Irssi is also IRC network aware so you can specify some settings to work only in specified IRC networks. - Automatically connect to IRC server(s) at startup, automatically join to channels when connected. - All code is nonblocking, it won't hang while connecting to server or opening DCC connection. Host lookups are done in separate processes. - DCC send, receive and chat with GUI - GNOME panel support, channels and queries are displayed in GNOME panel where you can easily see which channels have been updated (label turns to red) and click in them to open the channel. - Doubleclicking URL in text widget launches specified web/ftp/email client, also doubleclicking channel/nick join to channel or creates query. - Aliases, ignores, autoignoring when flooding, notify lists, completing specified words with tab (like home<tab> -> http://my.home.page), hilighting lines with specified texts - Smart nick completion - Configurable logging support - Plugins support, creating plugins is really easy. - Lots of nice GUI stuff :) * PROXY PLUGIN Usage: Start irssi-text in screen, connect to some irc server /load proxy <password> [ip address to listen [port to listen]] Finished, default port to listen in is 2777 and default ip is the ip where your irc server is connected. Now just connect your clients to the proxy. There's not much features yet, if you want to use multiple servers you'll need to start multiple irssi-texts now.. * INSTALLATION ./configure make make install Configure can use these parameters (all of these defaults to yes): --with-proplist=dir Specify libPropList directory --with-servertest Build test irc server which you can use to try crash irc clients --without-gnome Build without GNOME libraries --without-gnome-panel Build without GNOME panel --without-imlib Build without Imlib library --without-socks Build without socks library --without-textui Build without text mode version --without-bot Build without irssibot --enable-memdebug Enable memory debugging, great for finding memory leaks --enable-gtk-hebrew Enable Hebrew support - see README-HEBREW There's also some others, you can get a full list with ./configure --help * COMMAND LINE PARAMETERS --no-applet Don't start gnome panel applet --connect -c <server> Connect to server at startup --port -p <port> - specify port --noconnect -!
