What is it?

HexChat is an IRC client for Windows and UNIX operating systems. I.R.C. is Internet Relay Chat, see IRCHelp.org for information about IRC in general. HexChat runs on most BSD and POSIX compliant operating systems.

For more information please read our documentation: http://hexchat.readthedocs.org.

Requirements:

  • GTK+ 2.24
  • GLib 2.28

HexChat is known to work on, at least:

  • Windows Vista/7/8
  • Linux
  • FreeBSD
  • OpenBSD
  • NetBSD
  • Solaris
  • AIX
  • IRIX
  • DEC/Compaq Tru64 UNIX
  • HP-UX 10.20 and 11
  • OS X

Python Scripts:

Consider using the Python interface for your scripts, it's a very nice API, allows for loading/unloading individual scripts, and gives you almost all the features of the C plugin API. For more info, see the HexChat Python Interface.

Perl Scripts:

Perl 5.8 or newer is required. For more info, see the HexChat Perl Interface.

Autoloading Scripts and Plugins:

The root of your HexChat config is:

  • Windows: %APPDATA%\HexChat
  • Unix: ~/.config/hexchat

Referred to as <config> from now. HexChat automatically loads, at startup:

  • <config>/addons/*.pl Perl scripts
  • <config>/addons/*.py Python scripts
  • <config>/addons/*.dll Plugins (Windows)
  • <config>/addons/*.so Plugins (Unix)
