xchat IRC notification reddit / irc ---------------------------------------------------------------------- hara0115 · 2015-01-26 02:43 I am using xchat on ubuntu 14.10. I am mostly satisfied with it but a little frustrated that there is no desktop notification feature.. Is there a better IRC client on ubuntu than xchat? at least in terms of design and notifications? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- KindOne · 2015-01-26 03:28 xchat itself is a bit dead, might be interested in HexChat, its a fork of xchat with many bug fixed and new features. While I don't use the IRC client, a 'desktop notification feature' might exist in one of the github links. https://hexchat.github.io/ https://github.com/hexchat/hexchat-addons https://github.com/TingPing/plugins/tree/master/HexChat HexChat has an IRC channel on chat.freenode.net @ #hexchat ---------------------------------------------------------------------- beleuchtung · 2015-01-26 10:36 Try KVIrc. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- TingPing · 2015-01-26 15:32 *Preferences > Alerts*
