A Comparison of IRC support between GNU/Linux distributions 

,----[ Quote ]
| Finding a quick solution for your problems in 
| any distribution is the main reason to make 
| you rely on it. Therefore, the major 
| distributions have many ways to provide 
| support to their users. Among them, IRC 
| support provides a way to communicate quickly 
| and more interactively with users.
| 
| [...]
| 
| The numbers of IRC nicknames may reflect the 
| actual number of the users for each 
| distribution. Ubuntu, the most popular 
| distribution, has the largest number of IRC 
| nicknames over the six days. Mandriva has the 
| smallest number of IRC nicknames. The activity 
| of channel is an important thing and all 
| distributions show that you can find an active 
| support channel any time you want help.

IRC Clients for Linux Part 2: List of 5 CLI Clients

,----[ Quote ]
| As a conclusion, I strongly recommend Irssi, followed by WeeChat and Epic4.
| The first two are powerful enough, flexible, documented and have scripting
| support, while the latter is a little harder to use (at least in the
| beginning) and it has its own scripting language. Despite this, Epic4 has the
| advantage of giving you total control over how you want its interface to look
| like, and it also provides many scripts on the official website for
| customising it. BitchX is too old now and it's no longer updated, while
| TinyIRC offers only the minimum features needed to connect and interract with
| an IRC server.

,----[ Quote ]
| Since I'm an IRC addict and I always liked to spend time learning new stuff
| on IRC, here is a review of several IRC clients for Linux. Some of them are
| well-known and popular, like XChat, Konversation or Irssi, and others are not
| so widely used or known, but nevertheless, they deserve mentioning.

10 IRC client for Linux

,----[ Quote ]
| For many like me IRC is the main chat medium to share information about
| things we love. Be it linux, Ubuntu, games, whatever; there are always
| channels with many like minded people to talk to. There are a huge number of
| IRC clients out there, listing them all for me would be an impossible task.
| However, I could list 10 IRC clients I have used over the years, which are
| also quite popular among IRC/Linux community.
