Smuxi

User-friendly IRC client with detachable front end

About Smuxi

Smuxi is an irssi-inspired, flexible and user-friendly IRC client for sophisticated users, targeting the GNOME desktop and running on macOS, Windows and Linux. It can detach its front end from a server component that stays connected, supports multiple networks and integrates Twitter and other protocols in some builds. Users who like irssi's workflow but want a graphical interface use Smuxi as the comfortable middle ground.
