ii is a minimalist FIFO and filesystem-based IRC client. It creates an irc
directory tree with server, channel and nick name directories.
In every directory a FIFO in file and a normal out file is created.
The in file is used to communicate with the servers and the out files
contain the server messages. For every channel and every nick name there
are related in and out files created. This allows IRC communication from
command line and adheres to the Unix philosophy.

Changelog:
Changes ordered by priority.

* HTTP client: More robust handling of chunked encoding across packet
boundaries
* Stanza router: Fix handling of 'error' <iq>'s with multiple children
Low:
* c2s: Fix error reply when clients try to bind multiple resources on the
same stream (issue 484)
* s2s: Ensure to/from attributes are always present on stream headers, even
if empty (issue 468)
* Build scripts: Add --libdir option to ./configure to simplify building on
some platforms
* Fix traceback in datamanager when used outside of Prosody
(e.g. in some migration tools)
* mod_admin_telnet: Fix potential traceback in server:memory()
command (issue 471)
* HTTP server: Improved debug logging

HexChat is an IRC client based on XChat, but unlike XChat it's completely
free for both Windows and Unix-like systems. Since XChat is open source, it's
perfectly legal. HexChat was originally called XChat-WDK which in turn was a
successor of freakschat.
