KVIrc is a graphical IRC client for Linux, Unix, Mac OS and Windows. The name is an acronym of K Visual IRC in which the K stands for a dependency to KDE, which became optional from version 2.0.0. The software is based on the Qt framework and its code is released under a modified GNU General Public License.
== Features == KVIrc is able to connect to several servers at the same time (optionally with SSL and/or over IPv6). Unicode, ISO-8859-*, Asian and Windows-native character sets are supported. DCC is supported. A special feature is the smart encoding, which allows the user to use 2 encodings at the same time; the user can send Unicode and read Unicode and CP-1252 for example.
