Coolest looking terminal IRC client [closed]

IRSSI - The client of the future http://www.irssi.org/

sudo apt-get install irssi

Say no more

I would prefer weechat. Apart from having colors and looking awesome it is very customizable.

A very small IRC client is ii, but has no colors out of the box. It is good for using in shell scripts etc.

Always used Epic with the SplitFire script myself.

From their site:

EPIC's development model is to provide tools to scripters rather than features to end users. Out of the box, EPIC behaves much the same way ircII-2.8.2 did in 1994. To truly leverage EPIC, you will need a script pack.
