+Irssi is a modular IRC client that currently has only text mode user interface,
+but 80-90% of the code isn't text mode specific, so other UIs could be created
+pretty easily. Also, Irssi isn't really even IRC specific anymore, there's
+already a working [SILC](http://www.silcnet.org/) module available. Support for
+other protocols like ICQ could be created some day too.
## Installation
See the `INSTALL` file.
