Pretty good bare bones IRC client. Only one Ive found so far that actually works decent under ChromeOS. but could use more features like logging in DM and Channels. Downloads would be nice. auto startup of MULTIPLE servers would be nice. It was helpful to at least be able to save them so that is nice. Overall clean and functional.
