bitchx (IRC client) BitchX is a free software text-based IRC (Internet Relay Chat) client for UNIX-like systems, originally based on ircII and heavily influenced by EPIC. The original BitchX hasn't been updated since 2014. This build is for a fork by TheApacheCats that has many bugfixes and enhancements, and was last updated in 2019. The executable and man page are called BitchX (not bitchx). Optional: BitchX makes use of MS-DOS-style (codepage 437) graphics for its title screen. You can install misc/cp437 and run "cp347 BitchX" to see the title screen as it was intended.
