Overview
Weechat is a modern IRC client, based on a powerful text-driven interface. It is designed with extensibility in mind, featuring a wide array of options, plug-ins (like spell checking) and several scripting languages. It allows for multiple connections to different servers. Weechat has UTF-8 support and may use multiple character sets for encoding and decoding messages.
Installation
WeeChat is only available in Ubuntu 6.06 and newer. You will need to install the package weechat
Usage
WeeChat has a text-based version (sometimes also called Curses, due to the style of the user interface) and several graphical versions which are in development.
Text-Based
To start the curses version of WeeChat you will have to go to Applications >> Accessories >> Terminal then type in the command weechat-curses .
Automatically it will connect you to irc.freenode.net, which is great because all the Ubuntu (and family) channels are there! For a list of the ubuntu channel, check out the link at the bottom of the page for Ubuntu channel listings.
Once you have connected you can give yourself a nickname, with the command /nick newNick where newNick is your new nickname.
It is advisable to then read Freenode's FAQ.
To join a channel you will use the command /join chanName .
Graphical
Currently the GUI versions are all in development and are not in the apt-repo's how ever you can get them from the link at the bottom of the page, to FlashTux's WeeChat page.
