This was working for me, but then it stopped. I try to open it, and it closes. Thread 0 has crashed. Error ID 1002. The Mac lacks a decent tool to find out why programs do this.

Works exactly like unix Xchat :) Very good job. It's fairly lightweight and performs well.

If you're looking for features as well as a great, easy to use interface, this is your app. The one request that I have is for there to be a way to turn off font smoothing (anti-aliasing) for fonts above 10 pts.
