Irssi's hierarchy is something like this:
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
sub1 sub2
|
||
|
\ /
|
||
|
xxx IRC COMMON ICQ yyy
|
||
|

|

GUI (gtk/gnome, qt/kde, text, none)
|

CORE
|
||
|
/ \
|
||
|
lib-config lib-popt
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
(IRC, ICQ, xxx and yyy are chat protocols ..)
|
||
|
(sub1 and sub2 are submodules of IRC module, like DCC and flood protect)
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
Chat protocols and frontends are kept in separate modules. Common UI
|
||
|
and GUI modules also have the common parts which don't know anything
|
||
|
about the chat protocols. This should allow implementing modules to
|
||
|
whatever chat protocols and with whatever frontends easily.
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
** lib-popt
|
||
|
|
||
|
CORE depends on this for command line parameter handling.
|
||
|
(distributed with irssi)
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
** lib-config
|
||
|
|
||
|
Irssi depends on this for reading and saving configuration.
|
||
|
(created by me for irssi)
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
