#### The IRC client of the future

Irssi is a modular chat client that is most commonly known for its text mode
user interface, but 80% of the code isn't text mode specific. Irssi comes
with IRC support built in, and there are third party ICB, SILC, XMPP
(Jabber), PSYC and Quassel protocol modules available.

This snap is maintained by the Snapcrafters community, and is not necessarily endorsed or officially maintained by the upstream developers.
