kirc
KISS for IRC, an IRC client written in POSIX C99.
BACKGROUND
----------
After having tried multiple IRC clients, I decided to develope my own. The
result is a portable <250 sloc application that has no dependencies other
than a C99 compiler.
FEATURES
--------
- automatic host PING response.
- vi-like shortcuts:
:m <message> send a message to the current channel
:M <nick|channel> <message> send a message to a specified nick or channel
:n <message> send a message to NickServ
:j <channel> join a specified channel
:p <channel> leave a specified channel
:Q <message> send a message and close the host connection
:q close the host connection
- automatic word wrapping using the greedy algorithm.
- color scheme definition via ANSI 8-bit colors [1]. Therefore, one could
theoretically achieve uniform color definition across all shell applications
and tools.
INSTALLATION
------------

git clone https://github.com/mcpcpc/kirc.git
