I could not find a client with the features I was looking for, so yes,
here is yet another IRC client. Here's what makes it different from
others:
* absolutely NO scripting ability.
* termcap based (e.g. fast!).
* emacs-style key bindings
* full ircd 2.9+ support.
* virtual windows a la screen(1).
* multi server support.
* non blocking TCP connections.
* basic support for multi-homed systems.
* everything goes and stays in the lastlog.
* convenient scrolling (with searching abilities) in the lastlog.
* 10 display filters! (2 ignore features are based on this).
* highly customizable. (format strings, filters..)
* customization possible at every level (channel, window, server..).
* non blocking DNS lookups (A and PTR records).
* "tabkey" style completion for /msg, /squery and public discussion.
* DCC support.
* CTCP support.
