* '''mIRC''': Khaled Mardam-Bey released the first version of [[mIRC]] on February 28, 1995. [[mIRC]] is a graphical [[IRC]] client for the Windows platform with it's own scripting language. [[mIRC]] is shareware, so to legally run it past 30 days you need a $20 license. [http://www.mirc.com http://www.mirc.com]

* '''Irssi''': [[Irssi]] is a popular open source and free text based [[IRC]] client. [[Irssi]] is different from [[BitchX]] because it does not use the old ircII code. [[Irssi]] also supports Perl scripting and runtime modules, so it is highly customizable. There are binaries available for several operating systems including Mac OSX and Windows.[http://www.irssi.org http://www.irssi.org]

* '''BitchX''': [[BitchX]] is another popular open source text based [[IRC]] client for UNIX. It started out as a script for the ircII client, but then panasync patched the script directly into the actual client in 1994. There are binaries for many operating systems including Windows.

* '''Snak''': [[Snak]] is an [[IRC]] client for Macintosh OS X. It has several features and is actively developed, as well as allows ircII scripts. [[Snak]] is shareware ($25 USD). [http://www.snak.com http://www.snak.com]

* '''Ircle''': Another [[IRC]] client for Mac. [[Ircle]] runs on Mac OS 7.2 through 9.0.x, as well as Mac OS X 10.1 or newer. [http://www.ircle.com http://www.ircle.com]

* '''X-Chat Aqua''': If you are looking for a free client for Mac OS X, this Mac build of [[X-Chat]] should work great. [http://xchataqua.sourceforge.net http://xchataqua.sourceforge.net]
