XChat
XChat is an
Internet
Relay Chat (IRC) chat
program. It allows you to join multiple IRC channels (chat rooms) at
the same time, talk publicly, private one-on-one conversations etc. It
can also be used to transfer files with other users.
It has a choice of a tabbed or tree interface, support for
multiple servers, and a high level of configurability. Both command
line and graphical versions are available, although use of the
graphical version far outweighs use of the command line version.

communication between Internet Relay Chat (IRC) clients
- DCC file transfers
- Plugin system for various languages (including C, C++,
Perl,
