If you like detachable clients like WeeChat, Quassel, or irssi in a
multiplexer, you'll probably like Smuxi. It's got some neat features
like different frontends, support for XMPP/Campfire/Twitter and a nice
UI.

Does it have support for different frontends, as far as I can tell it
only has the gtk client, I would love to be able to use it in a
terminal environment as well.

I had recently looked on the actual site for smuxi and it stated in
the faq that there was only a proof of concept client that wasnt
publically available and I assumed that that was still the case.

Thanks for bringing this up. The FAQ item was 3 years old. Initially
the text frontend was PoC but now it is pretty usable and more
considered beta state. I have updated the FAQ item.
