Hybridbot
This bot acts as a normal user inside both a IRC channel and a XMPP MUC room, and relays/resends the messages received in one end to the other automatically.
Ii
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 the command line. Join a channel as follows: $ echo "/j #wmii" > in and ii creates a new #wmii (channel) directory with in and out files.
Irc

JsChat
JsChat is a chat system. It has an easy to learn JSON protocol, an ncurses client, a web app, and a server. You can try it right now on jschat.org. JsChat is similar to IRC, but itââ¬â¢s a fundamentally simpler system. The web app has lots of interesting features:
  • IRC-like commands: /names, /name new_name (/nick works too), /clear, /lastlog
  • Itââ¬â¢s pretty tiny; itââ¬â¢s built with Sinatra and Prototype
  • Auto-linking: pasting an image displays it inline, youtube and vimeo videos will appear as well
  • Last messages are displayed on join: the last 100 messages are displayed, so you donââ¬â¢t feel lost when you join a room
  • Tab completion!
KVirc
'KVirc' includes multiple chat-windows, a themeable GUI, a builtin help browser, activity notification, support for proxy servers and SSL connections, the abiltiy of connecting to multiple servers, a database of registered users and comprehensive scripting support. It has been translated into 14 languages. It can use KDE but does not depend on it.
Kirc
Kirc is a lightweight, terminal/console IRC client. It is designed to be compatible with all POSIX-compliant operating systems (including GNU/Linux). Kirc has no dependencies, only requiring a C99 compiler (such as GCC) and POSIX C header files to be built. Instead of having commands specific to itself, Kirc allows users to send raw IRC commands to the server it is connected to. Kirc has basic Emacs-style keybindings for text entry. Whilst mostly minimalistic in nature, Kirc has features such as chat history logging, terminal colours and SASL authentication. Kirc does not support TLS encryption; the developer suggests using a program like Stunnel or Socat to encapsulate the IRC connection within an encrypted 'tunnel'.
KiwiIRC
KiwiIRC makes Web IRC easy. A hand-crafted IRC client that you can enjoy. Designed to be used easily and freely.
Mbot
'mbot' is an IRC bot whose main advantage is that several bots can run simultaneously in the same process. This makes it ideal for shells where the background processes, but not the connections, are limited. It also features IPv6 support, TCL scripting partially compatible with eggdrop, and other modules with the most commonly needed functions.
Miau
'miau' is a small, fully featured IRC bouncer. Features include so-called quicklogging, logging, auto-opping, and dcc-bouncing. Most features can be enabled/disabled with a configure script. 'miau' offers a service a bit like HTTP-proxy, but for IRC networks. The difference is that when IRC-client disconnects from bouncer, the connection to the server isn't necessarily lost, so your nick can stay online and cannot be taken by the others. In case bouncer does loses the nick, it can try to get it back automatically. Also, when using bouncer, the hostname appearing in IRC is that of the machine the bouncer is running at, not the one you are IRCing from.
Netclasses
Netclasses is an asynchronous networking library that works on OS X natively, and any of the multitude of platforms supported by GNUstep. You've never seen an easier way to put together network applications! It has built-in support for line-based protocols, IRC, and raw TCP/IP streams.
