    How about riece? Its features are:

Here is what the rcirc author said about riece:

  I recently tried riece, and was put off by the fact that it took over
  the screen to create a 5-window layout.  There was a texinfo manual,
  but the English version was incomplete.

Personally, I think anything that wants to take over the screen is not
the best solution, although certainly there may be other factors.

Thanks for mentioning it, in any case.
