It sounds like you're describing irc7. There's also an irc7.2, which
is some cosmetic changes, plus factotum authentication. I usually
use the ircsrv from irc7.2 (which does the factotum bit, talks the
irc protocol, creates a /tmp and /srv file, and sits in the background)
and the irc from irc7 (which handles the UI, and i'm not terribly fond
of the irc7.2 cosmetic changes). Just a few days ago, in response
to someone else asking the same thing, I but my hybrid up at:
/n/sources/contrib/anothy/src/cmd/irc7a
I keep wanting to make more changes (mostly, which side of the
ircsrv/irc split timestamps happen on), but haven't gotten around to
it. If I do, they'll go there.
