Interesting, those on IRC were very 'for' this idea. Different
demographics? Oh you silly ML people!
So people who use mice prefer laggy ML communications over IM?
I hate mice, but I also can't stand the constant interruptions model of
IRC. Email without notification-style popups lets you deal with (or
ignore) stuff at your own pace instead of letting others dictate control
of your attention. (i.e. I prefer "laggy")
Fair enough. Myself, I can't concentrate on my work when I've got a MUA
running, popups or no popups. Shit, it's 6AM already?!
That said, what do people here use for IRC and how do you deal with it
in dwm? Without a systray, I don't understand where one gets the spare
screen real estate to dedicate to IRC. And w/o dedicated space for it, I
end up forgetting it's there (to the annoyance of people who want
responses).
I prefer having a few line high windows always visible, except in
fullscreen mode. That is, I actually dedicate screen estate to it.
