Branch: CURRENT, Version: 2.16.2, Package name: hexchat-2.16.2, Maintainer: pkgsrc-users

HexChat is an IRC client based on XChat, but unlike XChat it's completely
free for both Windows and Unix-like systems. Since XChat is open source, it's
perfectly legal. HexChat was originally called XChat-WDK which in turn was a
successor of freakschat.
