website = http://www.scrollz.comScrollZ is an
open source Internet Relay Chat (IRC) client based onircII . It incorporates many useful features found in all sorts of scripts. The main difference between these scripts and ScrollZ is the size, speed, and low resource requirements – in contrast to most IRC clients extensively customized using scripts, ScrollZ only takes a couple of extra kilobytes compared to the stock ircII client and runs very quickly on almost any machine. This is accomplished by using native C programming instead of the ircIIscripting language . This reduces memory and CPU usage and code tends to run much faster.ScrollZ is a console based application that runs on wide range of
operating system s, includingFreeBSD ,Linux , Solaris, AIX,Ultrix ,OS/2 ,Microsoft Windows , andMac OS X .
