irssi
Released January, 1999
The Pros:Screenable! Available for most operating systems. Gets the job done simply without any
bloat.
The Cons:Slight learning curve. Doesn't come with more advanced features out of the box. No easy-to-use UI (all text configuration and command driven).
Irssi is a highly configurable, perl-scriptable, open source (GNU licensed) text-based IRC client. It runs on a command line interface, and is available for most operating systems (including Windows, OSX, and most Linux and BSD distributions).
Irssi, like any CLI program, can be run in GNU screen - allowing for users to remotely access running instances of the program without any loss in functionality from anywhere in the world.
