What does everyone use for irc?
I'm on bitchx but don't do anything special with it. I've heard of irssi and xchat, some others...
Anyone have any words on why one is "better" or not? |

dunno if Zircon is in portage, but it is the only client that can multiconnect to various IRC networks. Lots of nice features and immune to most hacks.

| Irssi is my favourite because it's very light and it has good multi ircnet support. |

Recently I've became a X-chat addicted. But I'm still a BitchX fan

irssi for me too. I just don't see the point of having a GUI IRC client.

Sure is!
Well... except for Xchat I think... And I know IRSSI supports multiple server connections per client. |
