What IRC client(s) would allow me to filter out log messages?
- by Aras
I have been using Empathy and more recently Pidgin as my IRC client. But there is one feature missing from both of these clients that keeps bothering me. I want to be able to see only what people are actually talking about in each channel. I often like to leave IRC channels open and go back to them and read the messages for the last few hours or days. I saw that IRC clients have been discussed in this post and a few others, but I have not found what I am looking for yet.
Here is what I want to see in my IRC client:
what actual people say
Here is what I do not want to see
message about people entering the room
people leaving room
people changing their status messages or what they are known as
people sneezing
people's cats sneezing
Anyway, you get the picture.
What IRC clients are available for Ubuntu that would allow me to configure what I see so that I can see what people are talking about -- and nothing else?
