irssi is a command line IRC client for unix-based systems. It’s relatively simple to use. To install:
- on Fedora: yum -install irssi
- on Ubuntu: sudo apt-get install irssi
- on openSuse: zypper in irssi
- run the application: irssi
Usage
When the application opens type: /connect “irc_channel” and press enter. As an example:
/connect irc.freenode.net
- /join “#channel” “optional_password”
- exampe /join kde
And that’s it.
