but try hydrairc, still beta but is free and really good

Must say I've liked HydraIRC for as long as I was using it. So yeh, what he said.

It also (can) use TCL and perl, it is more than possible

TCL scripts rocks to me :-) I love it to experimen with it etc. :-)

mirc has too many badly written scripts which allow people to take advantage of yua computer

Hi!!!!!

I'm also interested in IRC scripting, I've started with mIRC but i had to throw it away when i switched my OS from Win XP to Linux.

Now I want to learn some Perl, Tcl or Python scripting. I heard they're all powerful programming languages. I hope you'll help me

Until I switched to Linux I used mIRC(as almost every Windows user).
Now I use XChat. I would use kvirc if it wasn't a KDE based client as it currently has much more features than XChat does(and especially better logging support).
I also use irssi under console mode.

I use XChat.
-Zeleanon- VERSION xchat 2.6.0 Linux 2.6.12-10-386 [i686/1.86GHz]
As put by /version.

When i used windows it was mirc. Ever since i started using Linux it's Xchat i love it's python scripting.

I use XChat for both Linux and Windows (it \is\ open-source).

I, probably like everyone else, enjoy the scripts. It's really fun to tinker with those for awhile.

I've never tried mIRC, but I guess it's the dominant Windows client for IRC...

Yeah you're right if you got Win than means you must got and mIRC like i do :-D

In windows I've used Xchat, because I loved it in Linux, but now I found BitchX, and I think it's amazing. I will allways use this client because it's THE best for me. I loved everything here, and I think none of the graphic-interace based clients can compete with BX (it's only my personal opinion )

please enlighten us - what's so amazing about bitchx?

Oh EVERYTHING I like it just because it works in console, I like to see everythink in ONE window, and of course the commands I mean where you can find such a command like /fuck Awesom, BX rocks but today the admon of my university deleted it because "it's not for education purposes" Damn
