Hi, sometimes deleting the software and reinstalling is not enough to create a clean installation. In this post shown below from Gizmo (the main man for 3dxchat) he explains he created a batch file to delete an entry in the system Registry. HexChat is an IRC client based on XChat, but unlike XChat it’s completely free for both Windows and Unix-like systems. Since XChat is open source, it’s perfectly legal. For more info, please read the Shareware background. HexChat was originally called XChat-WDK which in turn was a successor of freakschat. XChat for Windows Notes; XChat Tutorial (French only, offsite) How to compile from source code (for BSD/Linux) German User Documentation (PDF, outdated) List of /SET settings (for advanced users, offsite) Lots of detailed tutorials on Yvonne's site (offsite) Lots of detailed tutorials on xchatdata.net (offsite). The Source Code package will work on any Linux distribution which has GTK+, just follow the instructions in the Compiling and Installing page.If you are using Fedora, type yum install gtk2-devel in a terminal, before attempting to compile xchat. Source Tarballs v2.8.
IRC (Internet Relay Chat) is one of the best ways to be able to set up online debates with people from all over the world because it allows all the people that are connected to a channel to communicate, even if they didn't know each other in advance, something that isn't possible with instant messenger applications.
Main features
To be able to connect to an IRC channel it's necessary to have a client, like XChat. This client will allow us to connect with all those channels that we have the address of, allowing among other things to:
- Add channels to our favorites list.
- Assign predetermined nicks for each channel.
- Establish channels to open automatically when we launch the application.
- Add or delete channels and servers.
- Private conversations.
- Use color texts.
- And many other options.
All in all, XChat is an ideal IRC client for any user, that doesn't require hardly any computing knowledge due to the fact that is uses a rather simple interface.
- The trial period of this application lasts for 30 days.
