weechat: weechat (IRC client) WeeChat is a light, fast, multilingual, curses-based multiplatform IRC client. WeeChat supports: - DCC files and chats, multi-server connections, background connections. - IPv6, SSL, proxy, auto-reconnection, DCC2, nicklist, window splitting. - FIFO pipe for remote control; Aspell; scripting in Perl, Python 3, Ruby, Tcl, Scheme, Lua[1], JavaScript[2], PHP[3]; nick auto-completion; lag indication; auto-logging; and client upgrades without dropping connections. WeeChat will be built with support for Perl, Python 3, Guile, Ruby, and Tcl scripting[1]. Once WeeChat is running, you can install scripts using the built-in script manager ("/help script" to get started). [1] To enable Lua scripting, install one of these optional dependencies: lua53, lua52, or lua. The highest-numbered version of lua will be used, if multiple versions are installed. [2] JavaScript is not currently supported in this build of WeeChat. It also isn't supported in Debian's set of weechat packages, for what that's worth. [3] PHP is not supported in this SlackBuild because Slackware's php package isn't built with --enable-embed.
