Best (non-gui) IRC client?
What is the best non-gui IRC client? I've tried compiling *****X for Centos 4.1, but its not working. Is there anything else out there that is as good/flexible/better?

I'm not sure that it is the best client but I like 'irssi'. It is easy to use and compiled without a problem for me.

Depends, I guess. for long, leisurely chat sessions, I also prefer irssi, which is colorful and full featured. The other day, when I was trying to install a nvidia driver for the first time and needed a lifeline, I found epic to be more suitable. Epic is the simplest, most austere irc client I know.

irssi and *****X are the ones you will find most common, and almost certainly has an RH/CentOS binary available.
Epic and weechat may be a little harder to find the RPM, but source compiling will work as well.

BnIRC is an interesting one that is very light and has some excellent plugins
I'm personally fond of irssi

only problem is; brandon doesn't develop it anymore... or so he says. someone should take over development of it.
