BitchX -- Textmode IRC client<hr>
<a href="http://www.bitchx.org/">http://www.bitchx.org/</a><hr>
This is the bleeding edge of IRC software -- the most common functions
normally done by scripts are coded into the client itself.  It contains
dozens of features such as:

    * Built-in ANSI color (this is probably the biggest feature) *
    Ease of use -- dozens of useful command aliases to reduce typing *
    Built-in notify, protection, and bot lists * Built-in mass commands
    and tools * Extended set of DCC commands and built-in CDCC offering
    * Extended scripting functionality, including unique functions *
    Code is based on ircII-Plutonium and more recent ircII-EPiC
