: Spieglein, Spieglein, an der Wand, wer ist der grösste IRC client in #emacs? Here's what I got from a /CTCP VERSION command sent to #emacs... The winner is: *IRSSI*! 35 irssi-0.8 30 ERC 5.0 20 xchat 2.4 6 rcirc 6 ? 3 xchat 2.6 3 ircII 3 Circe 2 Colloquy 2.0.1 (2D32) 2 BitchX 1 rcirc.el 0.9 1 mIRC 5.91 1 Riece/2.0.2 1 ERC 4.0 IRC is InternetRelayChat for those of you who don't know. Chat networks instead of single servers. (*Update*: [[2006-05-22]]) [new] Note that four different Emacs based clients are represented: ERC, Circe, rcirc and riece. [new] And note that ZenIRC, the granddaddy of Emacs IRC clients, isn't represented at all! I have to admit, I'm somewhat surprised. I guess iNoah wasn't in the channel that day. -- EdwardOConnor
