Not bad. Is it crazy to think there ever might be an web-based IRC client with support for DCC? Even is OS X the best IRC choice is probably Colloquy that looks good but has no DCC support. Otherwise you have to go with XChat which is really ugly and not updated anymore, but mostly functional.



Thanks. Yeah I'm toying with implementing DCC, it'll probably get into Mibbit one day soon :) Probably have a parallel HTTP based file sharing concept as well for when you want to share something with the whole channel.


Cool. Sounds like a good idea. Also, it seems that since this client is web-based it gets past the IRC port blockage that our internal firewall is doing :) So thanks for that too.


Colloquy most definitely has DCC chat/send support. Right click any nick.
