WeeChat (Wee Enhanced Environment for Chat) is a free and open-source Internet Relay Chat client that is designed to be light and fast. It is released under the terms of the GNU GPL-3.0-or-later and has been developed since 2003.
WeeChat comes with a default ncurses interface, and it is possible to use other interfaces (e.g. Glowing Bear, [3] a web frontend) through the use of the relay plugin. [4]
WeeChat's features include: [5]
WeeChat supports most platforms and operating systems, including Linux, BSD, macOS, Debian GNU/Hurd, HP-UX, Solaris, QNX, Haiku, and Microsoft Windows (via the Cygwin library and API). [6]
Binary packages and builds of WeeChat are available for installation as well as the source code for self compilation. [7] This includes most Linux distributions and BSD package management systems, such as Debian, [8] Ubuntu, [9] Mandriva Linux, [10] Fedora, [11] Gentoo Linux, [12] Arch Linux, [13] FreeBSD via the FreeBSD Ports system, OpenBSD via the Ports collection, as well on NetBSD via Pkgsrc. [14]
In his review for Free Software Magazine, Martin Brown graded WeeChat with 43 points out of a possible 50, noting that "At first glance, WeeChat is not as friendly or easy to use as Rhapsody", but, "There’s a lot of hidden power built into the application", including Python, Perl, Ruby and Lua extensions which can be selected at installation.
