What it is:
RoxIRC is a graphical IRC client written in TCL/Tk. It provides a pleasant, easy to use, and powerful interface.

What you need:
  • A computer running either a Unix or Microsoft Windows, for mac support email me
  • In Unix you will need Tcl 8.4 or later and Tk 8.4 or later
  • A Pentium 2 or newer

What it does:
  • Single tabbed window or multiple window configuration
  • Switch from multiple to single window mode on the fly
  • Loadable and unloadable scripts
  • Fully scriptable with the power of Tcl
  • ircII style /commands, with history
  • Configurable colors for information types
  • Dedicated query windows
  • Dynamic configuration, no need to restart it
  • Internal address list for quicker bans, etc
  • Easily script simple events with /on
  • Nicklist, see who is in the channel without /names
  • Detachable or hidable nicklist
  • Dialogs for banlist, modes, kick/ban, etc
  • Faster than any other tcl/tk client
  • Popup menus when you right click on nicks, channels, querys...
  • Easy popup menu setup
  • Auto reconnect to server/rejoin channels when disconnected
  • Windows are hidable, not even your window manager knows about them
  • URL catcher
  • Supports bold and underlined text
  • Netsplit detection
  • DCC chat and file transfers with resume

Why it's better:
  • Unlike some other tcl/tk clients, it is pure tcl, not a frontend
  • Fast
  • Powerful, anything can be scripted, anything can be done by command line
  • Scripts can change or extend any part of the client
  • Totally configurable
