Title:
empathy is not enought good in IRC chat
Status in “telepathy-idle” package in Ubuntu:
Opinion
Bug description:
Binary package hint: empathy
Well, I am almost sure that everyone that has installed ubuntu new,
has tried to use all the features, such as evolution, gwibber and
empathy. And I am almost sure that when you try to use empathy in a
normal IRC channel you see that there are several IRC common commands
that are not supported. I just want to make empathy the usual IRC
client in gnome and not as the windows media player is when we speak
about playing a movie.
I have been reviewing the IRC RFC.1459 and there are a lot of commands
that could be implemented there, for example, listing the channels.
That is a vital function of a IRC client. We could also talk about
whois, quit, reconnect, list . In general, all those commands that we
use normally in a IRC client. I am not talking that they should all be
implemented in command line, for example listing all the channels in
the chat windows would just be horrible for the user.
As a reference, It could be tried to be more like xchat. That would be
perfect.
