            1 Irc it (ii)
            2 ===========
            3 ii is a minimalist FIFO and filesystem-based IRC client. It creates an irc
            4 directory tree with server, channel and nick name directories. In every
            5 directory a FIFO in file and a normal out file is created.
            6 
            7 The in file is used to communicate with the servers and the out files contain
            8 the server messages. For every channel and every nick name there are related in
            9 and out files created. This allows IRC communication from command line and
           10 adheres to the Unix philosophy.
           11 example
           12 
           13 Join a channel as follows: `$ echo "/j #wmii" > in`
           14 and ii creates a new #wmii (channel) directory with in and out files.
