HexChat is a discontinued Internet Relay Chat client and is a fork of XChat. It has a choice of a tabbed document interface or tree interface, support for multiple servers, and numerous configuration options. Both command-line and graphical versions are available.[2][3]
The client runs on Microsoft Windows and Unix-like operating systems,[2] and many Linux distributions include packages in their repositories.[4]
