DESCRIPTION

BitchX is a VERY heavily modified ircII client. It includes many things such as built in CDCC (XDCC) offering, built in flood protection, etc. It is easier to script things in BitchX because unlike plain, vanilla ircII, half the script does not have to be devoted to changing the appearance of ircII. It also includes many other new features, such as port scanning, adcanced TCL, a CD player, a mail client, screening process, etc. BitchX - based on EPIC Software Labs epic ircII (1998). Version (BitchX-75p2-8) -- Date (19980708). xbitchx is a wrapper script that loads the BitchX X11 font configuration from /etc/bitchx/xfont file, and runs BitchX under a nice XTerm window. scr-bx is used to reattach screens after /detach.
