mub - a minimalist IRC client in Go

Me and some friends wrote an IRC client in Go. We have tried it under OS X, FreeBSD, GNU/Linux and even on Windows.

By default it gives you a readline-like user interface with command history and the usual command line editing with arrow keys and Emacs keys. If you give it the argument -sub it uses a dumb TTY interface instead which may be usable if you write your own UI interface. So far we have a graphical user interface written in C# (not yet released) that works under Windows and an experimental websockets interface in its early phases.

Tell me what you think!
