irc client · DIGIT-ARC

wanted irc client

must be idiot proof, hassle free, good gui
no mirc, xchat, smuxi (these dont work)

must have colored usernames(like smuxi)

windows 7 32 bit.

Have you tried Chatzilla? Firefox addon. And you can install separately under xulrunner.

Even Opera irc client is pretty good.

i'll try chatzilla.

it has different colored nicks?
also, opera's client hangs up when i try to fetch the room list

Hey is Digit IRc still active.. How to access it

Wait for it to load. It takes some time.

mirc + nnscript is what I use on Windows. Irssi for linux.

Type your nick and channel as "krow". And enjoy the Akbar and Birbal sessions.

^^ lol!

Btw, @doomgiver: Why hate XChat? I use it, and it's pretty good, with a lot of customization. It has colored user names, keeps logs and you can change theme too with a little geeking. Pretty good IMO.

Digit's IRC is not in session from quite some time. But #krow is the #digit replacement for all and every purpose for us digitians!

Xchat has an extremely stupid interface. Mirc + nnscript is somewhat usable. Irssi is what I find the best.

Well, that's why I said, we can "customize" it.
Anyway.. havn't used Mirc/Irssi. So can't compare.

Sorry, but what is irc ? I hear that a lot these days, but no idea what it is.

internet relay chat, kinda like gtalk, but many ppl can talk TOGETHER at the same time, like in a room.

It's yahoo messenger conference for geeks.

@Doom: How did you find chatzilla?

More like Yahoo Chat room, but not owned by some multinational company. :-D

irssi for linux. yes it's cli.

Nettalk for Windows.

Weechat + Tmux for Linux.

Sticky thread in the Chit-Chat section.

Mirc + nnscript win in all aspect.

not so good, maybe i'll use it sometimes, but i think opera+chatzilla will do just fine

Pidgin..easiest and cleanest

trillian?nice GuI

+1 for Pidgin!

After joining the IRC as mentioned, how should I proceed to chat
It just shows HAVE FUN !! and then some member list at the right side of screen

lol. You are already there. Type your message and chat with the other members.

BTW, sometimes the members can be pretty inactive.

Yup, I too only go on IRC when I got a problem and don't have the patience to post in the forum and wait.

I'm not able to type anything anywhere in the window. :-?

There is a white textbar at the bottom.

Best solution is to install Opera browser | Faster & safer internet | Free download and click here: irc://irc.freenode.net/krow
