Hey John, I see there being 2 types, gui and text. I prefer the text based because I use ssh quite a bit to remote systems and just use the terms. My preference is irssi which has both a text and gui version. I've also used bitchx, but I moved to irssi so I could tell my mom about it, among other things. Also, I've used xchat which is a nice gui version. Like you said, there are a plethora of choices. So I suggest starting with one, get familiar with it, and then try the others till you find one you like. have fun, jc -- Jeff Coppock Systems Engineer Diggin' Debian Admin and User -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
