IRC and SILC Client for Mac OS X
Colloquy is an open-source IRC (Internet Relay Chat) and SILC (Secure Internet Live Conferencing) client for Mac OS X. Unlike other Mac-based IRC clients, which tend to be poorly accented Windows ports, Colloquy is built to adhere to the Mac OS X interface conventions, giving it the look and feel of a quality Mac application.In addition to appearance, Colloquy offers built-in functions not always found on other Mac IRC clients. These include:
- Use of Mac OS X's automatic type-as-you-go spell check
- Applescript support for easy scripting
- Extendability through plugins
- Buddy lists to keep track of your IRC friends
- Customized emoticon lists
- The ability to chat on multiple servers at once
- Transcripts features to keep track of conversations
- And much more.
The website also offers a list of plugins and scripts to download for Colloquy as well as a support and development wiki to keep track of new information, discuss, collaborate or exchange source code and ideas to help make Colloquy better.
