How does open source makes writing applicatiosn easier?
It has been said that there will be no linux version of mIRC...so I dunno why people keep asking for it.
If you need a good linux client, use BitchX, it's great! If you're one of those Xwindows people, XChat is very good too, and has a scripting syntax like mIRC's.
mIRC isn't the only option. It's just the best.
On Linux, you don't have that option. No use begging.
