Just thought I would point out that the latest version of the best IRC client ever has been released! Theres no .deb out but it compiled fine from source after I installed the dependencies that it needed.

Hi reprobus,

Thanks for that! Just downloaded and installed the new version and as you also experienced it compiled with no problem.

What makes it "the best" IRC client?

What makes it "the best" IRC client?
Its simplicity and elegance.

Though, it does lack some basic features I'd like to have, but those can be done with scripts.

Hi ghindo,

Take it for a test drive:

That way you will see for yourself what a great client it is :-).
